Moved
Moved from Entylia concava. No such animal. I double-checked with Dr. Hamilton, and he meant E. carinata.

Thanks Charley!
I had my suspicions and I thought that Dr. Hamilton would jump back in after additional comments were posted; perhaps he unsubscribed from this image after his initial comment. Thanks for the follow-up and thanks for correcting this.

Entylia concava
Possibly subspecies concisa, but the angle of view is a bit awkward for telling this. DE is on the boundary between the northern and southern forms.

Entylia concava
A quick search of the internet found only 1 reference to Entylia concava in a book digitized by Google and titled "List of the Specimens of Homopterous Insects in the Collection of the British Museum" dated 1850. Thank you!

Does that mean
that Neartica is wrong, and there are more than 4 species?

Another twist
See Dr. Hamilton's comments regarding Entylia/Publilia.

Wonder
which "concava" will change names?

11 species are described
in the previously mentioned document at Biodiversity Heritage Library. Easiest way to view it is to expand pt.2 and download as PDF. Species list starts on page 546 (PDF viewer may show 388 pages - its 2 pages per "sheet"). I hope that Dr. Hamilton can give us some insight as to the current number and names of species in this genus.
