CUBICORRHYNCHUS AURIGENA P>lacklj 



Hyhi>rrhy7ichnii aiirigena ]'>]ackburn. Trans. 11. Soc. S. Aust., 

 1899, p.89. 



Though referred by the author to J'ybori-hyiicli'ns, this species 

 is certainly a Cubicorrhynchus, and allied to C. sjyiiiicoUis. 

 From that species, it differs in being somewhat larger, with 

 more parallel-sided elytra. The internal, oblique ridges on the 

 rostrum are more evident, and the supraorbital crests are larger 

 and more outwardly directed. The prothorax is rather bioader, 

 with the lateral spines slightly larger. 



My onlv specimen is a female, which 1 received from Mr. H. 

 W. Brown; a secoTid specimen was sent to the British Museum, 

 and determined as this species by comparison with Blackburn's 

 type. 



A recent visit to the British Museum has enabled me to ex- 

 amine the type of C. aicriyena: it is probably a male, l)ut the 

 abdomen is displaced: it differs from the specimen I have com- 

 mented on abo\e in having the supraocular crests smaller: in 

 other respects, it agrees well, antl I think the two specimens 

 are conspecitic.
