Described from Solomon Islands, and I have found no other record of its occurrence. Our 15 specimens are somewhat variable, but agree well with Melichar's description. We collected them by general sweeping on various frees and shrubs in the forest, pretty generally distributed; a few nymphs were obtained also.
