178 THE CARABIDAF. OF TASMANIA. 



Adei.otopus hakxiorrhoidalis Eriehson. 

 (= ,1. inqtiinatus Newman.) 

 Hab. — Kelso (Simson, No. '2(ill). Widely spread in Australia. 



Adelotopus scolytides Newman. 

 What I consider the typical form has the elytra with a very narrow reddish 

 apical eilge (Strahan. Zeehan. Simson); other specimens are coloured like ^1. 

 haemorrhoidalis Erichs. [Brighton (Sirason); Parattah, Hobart (Lea).] Also 

 found on the mainland. 



Genus S I L P H M o R P H A. 



Tasmanian species. 

 Black, prothorax and elytra with a narrow reddish margin. Length, 8 — 9 mm. 



decipiens Westw. 

 Black. Length, 12— 15 mm tasmanica Cast. 



Only S. decipiens Westw., was in the Simson Coll., numbered 2812, but with- 

 out exact locality. S. dubia Cast., is conspecitic with .s'. tasmanica, as I have 

 ascertained from named specimens in the Howitt Coll. S. decipiens and S. las- 

 manica have a wide range on the mainland. 



APPENDIX. 



List of species now attributed to Tasmania, but of which I have not seen 

 specimens from that island, or which have not been dealt with in this paper. 



Species marked with an asterisk are only known to me by description. 



Species marked with a note of interrogation are those which I believe to be 

 doubtfully Tasmanian, and which might be deleted from the list of Tasmanian 

 species till they are ilctinitely reported from tliere.
