From a study of the genitalia, the author considers that all the Membracids described in the genus Entylia belong to one species, E. carinata (Forst.), despite considerable intraspecific variations in colour and external morphology. A list is given of names that should be synonymised with E. carinata; they include E. sinuata (F.) and E. bactriana Germ. Characters of the adults of both sexes are described and the main colour variations are given.
