436 NEW SPECIES OF AUSTRALIAN COLEOPTERA, 



Allied to the preceding species, but the head of the male 

 not quite so large or convex, and the punctures sparser and 

 considerably smaller. The foveae are considerably larger, more 

 open, less basal, and of a different shape. From some direc- 

 tions, the head appears to have a large, median, elongated 

 tubercle. The median carina of the prothorax, from some 

 directions, appears solid ; but, from others, an impressed line 

 can be traced down its middle. The teeth of the hind 

 trochanters are rather short, subtriangular, and not at all 

 curved. 



Batrisodes rugicornis Raffr. 



Including a co-type, there are now before me (from Glen 

 Innes, Murrurundi, and Hunter River, in New South Wales ; 

 and Dalveen in Queensland) 37 specimens of this species ; 

 but, as they all have the hind trochanters with a long curved 

 tooth, they are doubtless all males. I have seen no specimens 

 that can be confidently identified as females. 



Batrisodes hamatus King. 



There are before me, eleven specimens of this species ; eight 

 are reddish-castaneous, but three are flavous, and agree 

 exactly in sculpture with the darker ones. The female differs 

 from the male in being slightly larger, and more robust ; the 

 unaer-surface of abdomen more convex, and the trochanters 

 unarmed. 



Batrisocenus tibialis King. 



The female of this species differs from the male in having 

 all the trochanters unarmed, the front tibiae simple, the 

 under-surface of abdomen more regularly convex, and the 

 head less convex along middle.
