446 REVISIONAL NOTES ON AUSTRALIAN CAKABID^, 



Note — 0. latus Casteln., and 0. jxiroensis Casteln,, are un- 

 known to me in nature. 0. lal.ios seems, from Chaudoir's des- 

 cription (Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr, 1882 (6), p. 344), to resemble 0. 

 parviceps SI.; but to differ \>y having the shoulders not dentate, 

 the legs and antennfe darker. 0. paroensis Cast., is not noticed 

 by Ciiaudoir in his monograph; but, from consideration 

 of Castelnau's slight description, it seems nearly related to(if 

 not identical with) 0. oblongus Casteln. 0. reichei Laf.(nomen 

 nudum) = Coptocarpus convexus Cast.; of. Chaud. Mon. p.510. 



OoDES INORNATUS Castelnau. 



Trans Roy. Soc. Victoria, viii., 1868, p. 151; Chaudoir, Ann. 

 Soc. Ent. Fr., 1882 (6), p.343; 0. proximus Casteln., I.e. 



It is on the authority of Chaudoir, in his Monograph(p.344), 

 that 0. proximus has been placed as a synonym of 0. inornatus. 

 I have identified this species from Chaudoir's description.

OoDES OBLONGUS Castelnau. 



Trans. Roy. Soc. Victoria, viii., 1868, p. 149; Chaudoir, Ann. 

 Soc. Ent. Fr., 1882 (6), p.360; Copiocarpus riverince Macleay,

 Macleay, Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. Wales, ii., 1878, p. 216. 



This species has an extensive range, but I have never yet 

 found it. Castelnau's type was from Eastern Creek, near 

 Sydney. I have inspected the types of Voptocarpus riverince 

 Macl., in the Macleay Museum, and have no hesitation in 

 referring them to 0. oblongus. The types of 0. planipennis 

 Macl , in the Macleay Museum, though more nitid, evidently 

 represent this species, and have a fine marginal seta within 

 each basal angle of the prothorax. Below, under 0. Jroggatti, 

 will be found .some features which differentiate the type-speci-
