444 REVISION OF THE AMYCTERIDES, V., 



and from an area internal to the lateral margins; sides with a 

 few granules above. Elytra (5 x 35 mm.) gently rounded on 

 the sides; base gently emarginate, humeral angles feebly marked, 

 not produced; disc gently convex from side to side; seriate 

 punctures rather large; interstices without evident granules. 

 Undersurface subnitid, feebly depressed at base; with rather 

 distinct punctures, coarser on the apical segment. Anterior 

 coxte contiguous; tibiae straight, the undersurface feebly sinuate, 

 each side with a row of small granules. Dimensions : ^,S x 3"5 

 mm. 



Hab. — Queensland : JNIt Tambourine (R. Illidge). 



Described from a single male, received some j'ears ago from 

 Mr. Illidge of Brisbane, who has other specimens from the same 

 locality in his collection. This species is not close to any other 

 known to me, and may be recognised chiefly by its small size, 

 feeble crests, prothoracic granulation, and slightly emarginate 

 base of the elytra. The sette are also unusually long. The 

 type is caked with an ochreous meal, or perhaps mud, which 

 conceals the colour of the clothing; the seta3 appear light from 

 some directions. 



CUBICORKHYNCHUS MINOR, n.sp. 



^. Small, elliptical-ovate. Black; densely clothed with grey 

 and brown squamosity, the grey extending as a broad patch 

 across the prothorax, atid clothing the median impression, on 

 the elytra the colours irregularly distributed, the brown with a 

 submetallic appearance from some directions; setae long, stout, 

 dark. 



Head convex: separated from the rostrum by a transverse im- 

 pression, towards the sides extending back and outwards along 

 the inner sides of the supraocular crests; crests elongate, directed 

 backwards and slightly outwards, appearing as processes of the 

 rostrum lying back against the head. Rostrum short, hardly 

 concave above, with two, short, oblique, little evident ridges, 

 converging inwards to base of rostrum: external margins not 

 raised, running back to base of supraorbital crests. Prothorax 

 (1'5 X 2 mm.) narrow, widest slightly in front of the middle; not
