446 NEW SPECIES OF AUSTRALIAN COLEOPTERA, 



About the size of P. Leanus, and slightly smaller than I\ 

 tuberculi/rons, but with considerably shorter antenna?, whose 

 terminal joints are also of a different shape; P. favipalpis is 

 slightly larger, differently clothed, the head wider, and" antennse 

 somewhat longer; all the other species known to me are decidedly 

 larger. 



PSELAPHUS SUBSQUAMOSUS, n.Sp. 



9. I '.right reddish-castaneous, appendages more or less 

 flavous. Rather densely (for the genus) clothed all over 

 upper surface with short white pubescence, becoming very 

 dense at tip of elytra, and at base of abdomen on under- 

 surface. 



Head with median groove shallow and partially obscured 

 by clothing. Antennas rather thin, second joint distinctly 

 shorter and slightly narrower than first, joints of the club 

 rather thinner, but otherwise as in the preceding species. 

 Palpi (for the genus) not very long, club of apical joint the 

 length of peduncle. Profit orax about as long as wide, basal 

 half almost parallel-sided; a transverse impression at base, 

 marked by three fovese, but somewhat obscured by clothing. 

 Elytra about as long as wide ; each with the sutural and 

 dorsal striae distinct, the latter rather strongly curved.

Ctenisophus sublongtcornis, n.sp. 



cf . Pale castaneous, palpi and tarsi still paler. Clothed 

 with very short, whitish pubescence, denser at tip of elytra 

 than elsewhere. 



H earl rather wide ; the interocular foveas smaller and shal- 

 lower than usual. Antennae long, extending almost to tip of 

 elytra. Proihorax slightly wider than long, widest close to
