Head transverse, distinctly punctate; basal impression rather 

 feeble, median line not traceable. Antennae just passing base of 

 prothorax, 1st joint moderately stout, not much longer than 2nd, 

 3rd-10th subequal in length and feebly or not at all transverse, 

 11th ovate, not much longer than 10th. Pro^Aorn^.x- transverse, 

 apex much wider than base, with or without a feeble longitudinal 

 impression on each side of middle; densely and distinctly punc-

Hab. — Gerald ton, Mount Barker, W.A. 



A speciaien which appears to be a female differs in having a 

 smaller head and shorter antennae, with the sides of the prothorax 

 more rounded. In general appearance the species is close to L. 

 ri(/idus, but the striation of the prothorax is very different. 



L.EMOPHL^US EUCALYPTI, n.Sp. 



^. Scarcely visibly pubescent, shining. Pale reddish-testaceous 

 and with or without a slight blackish cloud about scutellum. 



Head moderately large; punctures moderately distinct, median 

 line not traceable. Antennae terminated before base of protho- 

 rax, 1st joint stout, subglobular, not quite the length of 2nd-3rd 

 combined, 2nd stouter and longer than 3rd, 3rd-8th subequal in 

 length and feebly transverse, 9th-10th slightly larger, 11th 

 briefly ovate, but about once and one-half the length of 10th. 

 Prothorax feebly transverse, apex considerably wider than base^ 

 densely and regularly punctate; each side with a single stria. 

 Elytra each with four distinct striie and traces of others, the sides 

 of the striae feebly rugulose from punctures, interspaces very 

 feebly punctate. Length l^-lf mm.
