'290 EEVISION OF THE GENUS NOTOXOMUS, 



than apex (3'5 mm.); posterior angles obtuse, a little marked; 

 posterior marginal puncture on border at basal angle ; lateral 

 channel and border wide. Elytra truncate-oval (9 x 55 mm.); 

 humeral angles hardly marked; striae deeply impressed, minutely 

 crenulate (more perceptibly so in 9); interstices convex (strongly 

 so in (J, lightly so and rather opaque in 9), third 2-punctate, 

 eighth wider than ninth on basal half (hardly convex on basal 

 half in 9), ninth lightly convex, wider posteriorly, tenth distinct 

 before lateral basal sinuosity. Intercoxal declivity of prosternum 

 flat; of mesosternum flat. Length 15-17, breadth 5-2-5-8 mm. 



Hub. — I*^.S W. : Sydney District [Ermington, Penshurst, Ryde, 

 Carlton, Auburn (Sloane)], Grose Valley (Fletcher). 



Castelnau gives the range of the species as " Queensland, 

 N.S. Wales and Victoria," but I have seen it only from the 

 Sydney District. The synonymy is on the authorit}^ of Chaudoir.
