Show 98 MR. A. G. BUTLER ON NEW SPECIES OF FULGORA. [Jan. 20, of body, including rostrum, 1 inch 2 lines, rostrum 6 lines; expanse 2 inches 6 lines. Penang (Bowring). B.M. Perhaps a local race of F. candelaria, but unquestionably more distinct than F. viridirostris and F. nigrirostris. An example, labelled " India," from Mr. Saunders's collection, differs from the type in having the rostrum of a pitchy colour. The rostrum in this species is shorter than in F. viridirostris. 4.
