Inliabits Malabar (Guerin), Prince of Wales's Island (Dr. Cantor). In the Collection of Rev. F. W. Hope.
OBSERVATIONS.—I am indebted to M. Dalen, of Rotterdam, for a drawing of another remarkably
fine variety of this species, executed by Col. Ver Huell, in which the spots of the fore wings are
confluent, and of a rosy colour; the green at the base of the hind wings not being represented.
M. Guerin has shortly characterised another new species of Fulgora from Java, in the 'Annales' of
the French Entomological Society, 1845, p. xcvi., under the name of F. cyanirostris. This is stiU
unfigured. Another now species (unnamed and unfigtu-ed) also from Java, is noticed in the same
volume, p. xcvhi. And I have seen at the British Museum the di'awing of another beautiful species
from Borneo, which is intended for publication.
