press control and delete or alt and delete depending what your foreground colours are

It appears from your screenshot you have a blank layer selected, so there isn't anything to delete on that layer.

if the layer is a shape layer it will need to be rasterized first

Like iDad said you need to rasterize first... If however, you want to keep the shape layer in tact, use the pen tool to make the selection (set it to Subtract from path area).
