The muscles and the pleurosteinal Inidge have been removed, and nuu-li of the medial part of the protergum has been eut away. and the furca has been described in Corixa and Salda by Larsen (1945a and b), and in Ramphocorixa by Griffith (1945) ; the latter author termed it the pleMrosternal hridge, and that term will be used here. Sternum. The anterior part of the sternum is produced into a large triangular process wliich lies between the coxae (Fig. 4, X). A similar process in the metathorax of Heteroptera has been termed tlie xiphus bj^ many authors, and that term will be used for this prothoracic structure. Along the posteroventral edge of.
