Extract

The small group of Homopterous insects included by Fabricius in his genus Derbe, but now separated as a sub-family from the other Fulgoridæ under the name of Derboides Spinola or Derbida, Stal have always been objects of interest to students of this order, partly on accoutn of their delicate from and peculiar strutcure, but their almos universal rarity has doubtless added much to their atractiveness.

References

* Since writing the above, M. Provancher has (Petite Faune Ent. du Canada, Vol. III. Hemip., p. 217, May, 1889) described an insect as Amphixepa (!) Coquebertii, referring it to Kirby's species with hesitation. From his description it cannot be the Coquebertii, but it agrees in every particular with pale examples of Degeerii that not infrequently occur here, and probably should not be considered as deserving even a varietal name.
