P. LATicoLLis, Pasc; Mast. Cat. Sp. No. 5458. Hah. — Queens- 

 land. I have several specimens which agree fairly well with Mr. 

 Pascoe's description of this species, except that the 2nd joint of 

 the funicle is decidedly longer than the 1st. 



P. coNFiNis, Pasc. ; Mast. Cat. Sp. No. 5455. Hah. — Wide 

 Bay. Mr. Masters has lent me a specimen from Wide Bay which 

 is probably confinis; besides the characters mentioned by Mr. 

 Pascoe, it differs from the specimens I doubtfully refer to laticollis 

 in having the femora and rostrum decidedly shorter and thicker. 



P. ixviDUS, Pasc; Mast. Cat. Sp. No. 5457. Hah. — " Gawler, 

 S.A.; Victoria; Sydney; Queen.sland." Although this appears to 

 be a widely distributed species, I have seen nothing approaching 

 Mr. Pascoe's description.
