' Xystrocera Australasise, Hope; «^m> Xys. Indicae, Hope. Ru- 



fescens, thorace glohoso, lined medid longitudinali vix notato ; 



elytris rufo-castaneis viridi-ceneis, vittd for titer punctatd, femo- 



ribus atro-piceis. Long. lin. 11, lat. lin. 2 J. 



It is with hesitation that I give this insect as distinct from one 



received from Singapore ; in sculpture, and in several minor points, 



it certainly differs from Indica, and the genus is now recorded for 



the first time as occurring in New Holland : it is singular that I have 



also lately received from Sierra Leone another species intimately 



allied to both of them, 



Callidium Essingtoni {Affine Callid. obscuro, Fab.). Brunneum, 

 thorace lined longitudinali parum elevatd, tuberculisque binis fere 

 mediis insignito ; elytris vittd albidd, tubercuUs variis per discum 

 aspersis; corpore infrd griseOy pedibus pallidis. Long. lin. 4|, 

 lat. lin. li. 

 There is a third Callidium closely allied to the above, from the vi- 

 cinity of Swan River. 



Rhytiphora (Serville) piperitia. Squamosa, nigro flavoque colore 

 variegata ; antennis plumosis articulis apicibus rufo-piceis ; tho- 

 race punctato ; elytris ad apicem abrupte truncatis, ad basin tu- 

 bercuUs majoribus nigris, aliis per totum discum aspersis ; corpore 

 infrh concolori. Long. lin. 8, lat. lin. 2^. 

 This genus seems peculiar to New Holland ; more than twenty 

 species have fallen under my notice. 



Rhytiphora tuberculata. Grisea, antennis plurAosis, thorace acutis 

 spinis insignito, elytris bispinosis, ad humeros crebris tubercuUs 

 obsitis, disco in medio albo fuscoque colore notato ; corpore infroL 

 albido piloso. Long. lin. 1\, lat. lin. 2|. 

 Rhytiphora detrita, Hope. Picea, capite flavo-piloso, antennis plu- 

 mosis, thorace 2-tuberculato, elytris humeris prominentibus, dente 

 elevato in singulo fere ad basin posito ; per totum discum suprd 

 color piceus, lanugoque flava prcdvalet ; corpore infra concolori 

 flavisque capillis obsito. Long. lin. 6, lat. lin. IJ. 

 Here three new species of Lamia ought to be introduced ; unfor- 

 tunately they are so changed in appearance by grease, that it is well 

 to pass them over. 



Rhagiomorpha (Newm. ?) unicolor, Hope. Fusco-brunnea, antennis 

 flavescentibus ; toto corpore supra et infra fusco-brunneo et pi- 

 loso, pedibus subfiavis. Long. lin. 9, lat. lin. 2. 

 Rhagiomorpha plagiata, Hope. Grisea, antennis flavis articulis 

 ultimis crassioribus ; thorace griseo-piloso ; elytris concoloribus, 

 punctulatis, maculd magnd jiavd inter humeros positd, secundd mi- 

 nore rotundatd haud ad apicem positd ; corpore infra griseis ca- 

 pillis obsito. Long. lin. 7, lat. lin. 1 J. 

 Hathlia lacteola, Hope. Alba, antennis rvfescentibus et pilosis ; 

 thorace lined longitudinali piced notato punctato ; elytris creta- 

 ceis ad basin punctatis apicibus subacutis, suturd sensim elevatd ; 

 corpore infra griseo-testaceo, pedibus concoloribus. Long. lin. 6-, 

 lat. Ihi. If. 

 Hathlia 4-lineata, Hope. Rubro-picca, antennis concoloribus ; tho-
