This species has been named ruhrovittata and described as new by Schmidt, who states that it differs from the description given by AValker of his species. Walker's type from Malacca is iu the British Museum, as is also a series of other specimens from tlie Malaj^ States, and these agree entirely and explicitly with the specimens from Tenasserim, one of which I figured and described as above. As Schmidt gives his habitats as Sumatra and Java, he has probably confused the species altogether ; and this suggestion seems more than borne out by the figure given by Melichar of his species.

Both Bierman's descrip- tion and figure define the costal membrane of the tegmina as possessing numerous transverse veins, wliereas my description and figure of Barunoides clearly show the contrary, "costal membrane without transverse veins." Moreover, there are otiier differences, and Bierman's genus is distinct and must stand, unless it should be subsequently proved to be a synonym of Kusuma, Dist.

The descri])tion, founded on a Ceylon species, is published in a footnote to Stal's " Hemiptera insularum Philippinaruin," and was overlooked by both Melichar and myself when working out the Ceylonese species ; we then considered that all the species could be placed under one genus. 3263.

Tlie late Mr. Kirkaldy created (above and elsewhere) con- siderable confusion as regards this genus and species. He stated that it =D. maidis, Ashm., and D.psyUoldes, Leth., and proposing a new genus for it under Fererfrinus. That it is not the same as maidis, Ashmead, mIio figured his species, is clear from the structure of the face and the venation of the wings ; moreover, the British Museum now possesses a specimen from Hawaii labelled viaidis, Ashm., which is un- doubtedly simpUcia, Dist. He also added to the synonymy the Dclphax psyUoidcs, Leth., which was well figured (Ind. Mus. Notes, iii, p. 105, 1896), includhig sectioual characters, and therefore cannot be placed in the same genus, nor in the same subfamily. Add: Hah.

The type of Trojndocephala is, T.JIauiceps, Stfil, a South African species and one which 1 have not seen, nor has Matsumura, for he does not figure the species and only copies Stfil's description, hut he is able to figure T.brunn-ipennis, Sign., which Stfil also inchided in his genus. 3329.
