Guerin's type appears to be a male; the dimensions are: 

 long. 23, 1. 8 mm. T. scabrosus Macl. is closely allied, but is 

 a much more densely clothed species ; the granulation also 

 appears to be coarser. 



Although not labelled type, I regard the specimen of T. 

 tuberculatus as such, and think that the type-label has been 

 attached in error to a Fsalidura {F. mirabunda, Gyll.) sent 

 for examination, and bearing a type-label: "Phalidura 

 [struck out] tuberculata d'Urville, h. in Nova Hollanda, D. 

 Lesson." The Psalidura in no way corresponded to the short 

 concise description of Boisduval, which moreover agreed per- 

 fectly with the specimen here described. 



Talaurinus Bucephalus Oliv., Masters' Cat. No. 4687. 



Among the species sent for examination, was a specimen 

 bearing the following labels: — 



1, Nouv. Hollande ; 2, Coll. Dejean, Coll. Roelofs ; 3, 

 Bucephalus Olivier; 4, Type; 5, Phalidura [struck out] 

 bucephala d'Urville, h. in Nov. Holland. D. Latreille ; 6, 

 Type T. bucephalus. 



This specimen must be regarded as the true T. bucephalus, 

 Oliv., and while evidently the specimen Boisduval had before 

 him (Collection de M. Dejean), I do not think it can be 

 regarded as Olivier's type, which was from the Museum d' 

 Histoire Naturelle. 



The species is extremely common in the neighbourhood of 

 Sydney, the Blue Mountains, and Moss Vale districts ; and 

 shews a range of variation which probably accounts for its 

 extensive synonymy. The synonymy of Macleay's species has 

 already been given by Lea under T. Camdenensis, Macl., and 

 I have only to record their identity with T. hurep/ialus.
