1030 NOTES AND EXHIBITS. 



Dr. Ramsay exhibited two mounted specimens of a new species 

 of Belideus about the size of B. Jlaviventer, but of a light ashy- 

 gray colour, almost white on the proximal portion of the tail, 

 which is thick, bushy and well covered with long hair to the tip ; 

 the under surface of the body is white. These specimens have 

 been recently received from the Museum collectors, Messrs. Cairn 

 and Grant, who obtained them with other new species of Phalangers 

 on the Bellenden Ker Ranges, North Eastern Queensland. The 

 Belideus will be described under the name of B. cinereus. 



Dr. Ramsay also exhibited a new species of Psevdochirus 

 (Phalanger) with a remarkably short head and long bushy tail, 

 for which the specific name of hreviceps has been proposed. 



Mr. Skuse exhibited specimens of the Tipulidae described in his 

 paper. 



Also specimens of a minute Dipterous fly, Phytomyza (sp.n.), 

 bred from the leaf of Clematis aristata, obtained in the beginning 

 of the present month by Mr. J. J. Fletcher. The larvae make 

 long irregular white galleries beneath the upper cuticle of the leaf, 

 where they undergo their metamorphoses.
