Stenocoris pallida, <$. 128, terminalia, dorsal view ; 129, head, dorsal view ; 130, claspers, inner and outer views ; 131, aedeagus (inflated), ventral view. Body comparatively robust, pale, unicoloured. Head long, more than a third as long again as broad ; occipital suture medially " V "-shaped, arms curving outwards towards sides ; paraclypeae long, more than a third as long as head, thicker at bases and rounded at apices. Antennae pale, with apices of second, third and apical three-quarters of fourth segments brownish black. Rostrum short, hardly reaching apices of second coxae. Lateral black line usually represented by a black dot on sides of collar. Pronotal disc pale unicolourous, black spots on posterior angles absent. Legs with apices of femora usually tinged with red. Hemiely- tra usually brownish black. Abdomen with dorsum, excluding connexiva, red ; venter pale ochraceous. Posterior margin of seventh abdominal tergum truncate ; pygophore elongate, thicker at base and tapering posteriorly. cJ genitalia : Claspers strongly curved in middle, strongly curved and pointed at apices ; dorsal thecal appendages absent ; ventral pair long, almost straight and rounded at apices ; four left lateral conjunctival appendages as in Text-fig. 131 ; frontal conjunctival appendages paired, long, at least as long as or longer than first lateral conjunc
