the numerous small spots of a golden colour sprinkled over the 

 dark brown of the elytra. The punctures on the prothorax are 

 quite visible in spite of the dense clothing of scales. Probably 

 the derm sculpture of an abraded specimen would appear very 

 different. The antennal club is distinctly pedunculate. The 

 elytra are devoid of distinct erect bristles. The 3rd joint of the 

 antennal funicle is notably longer than the 4th.

TiTINIA LiETA, Sp.nOV. 



Picea ; squamis (subtus albis supra obscure fusci.s, his nonnuUis 



albis nonnuUis f ulvis intermixtis) dense vestita ; scrobibus 



supra approximatis ; antennarum funiculi articulo basali 



quam 2"^ sat longiori, hoc sequentibus 2 conjunctis sub- 



breviori ; prothorace vix transverse, antice tubulato, ad 



basin fere subbisinuato, sparsim punctulato, basi quam margo 



apicalis sat latiori, lateribus postice sat fortiter rotundatis ; 



elytris punctulato -striatis. [Long. 1|, lat. /„ li^^- 



On the upper surface the white scales clothe the cheeks, the 



portion of the rostrum between the scrobes form a ring round the 



eyes, project as extensions of the white undersurface on the sides 



of the prothorax, clothe the scutellum and extend backward a 



little along the suture, and form a spot on each shoulder ; while 



the fulvous scales mingle with the white ones round the eyes, form 



two narrow lines diverging hindward on the prothorax, and are 



sprinkled here and there over the elytra • the sides of the latter 



are irregularly clothed with greyish scales. The antennal club 



is scarcely pedunculate. The elytra bear some short semi-erect 



hair-like bristles. The 3rd joint of the antennal funicle is not 



longer than the 4 th. 



Victoria ; Alpine district; a single specimen.
