208 NOTES ON AUSTRALIAN COLEOPTERA. 



This species, by its comparatively short antennae and other 

 characters, seems to be allied to B. sartor, Suff., and sutor, Sufi", 

 which, however, are described as considerably larger insects with 

 black antennee. The scutellum not being elevated behind above 

 the level of the elytra gives the present species a facies somewhat 

 dififerent from that of its described congeners, but I think this 

 character is due merely to the part of the elytra immediately 

 behind the scutellum being itself somewhat gibbose. 



Victoria ; Alpine district.
