NOTES AND EXHIBITS. 201 



Mr. Froggatt exhibited specimens of a rare sawfly, Philomastix 

 glaber, Froggatt, aud of its larvae, which were found feeding on 

 one of the wild brambles, Rihhus moluccanus ; they were obtained 

 by him recently at Mt. Vincent, Maitland, N.S.W., when on a 

 collecting trip for the Technological Museum, Sydney ; the species 

 was originally recorded from the Richmond River. Also a 

 collection of Coleoptera, chiefly lamellicorns, among them some 

 rare species of Bolhoceras, sent to Mr. J. H. Maiden by Mr. 

 Chisholm of Torren's Creek, one of the head waters of the Flinders 

 River, North Queensland. Also two male specimens of a rare 

 fossorial wasp, Thynnus hrenchleyi, Smith, from the same locality, 

 together with a specimen of the other sex, which may turn out to 

 be the hitherto unknown female of this species ; previously 

 recorded only from Champion Bay, W.A., and Narrabri, N.S.W. 



Mr. Rainbow showed a spider, in all probability a new species 

 of the endemic and widely distributed genus Stephanopis, from 

 Bungendore.
