726 EEVISIONAL NOTES ON AUSTRALIAN CARABIDM,!., 



now before me have the clypeus as in C. pectonoda, and one 

 (apparently $) has the clypeus deeply and widely emarginate, 

 the " wings " more rounded and more strongly divided from the 

 supra-antennal plates ; the intercoxal part of the prosternum 

 without pectoral ridges or nodules and non-sulcate on posterior 

 declivity; anterior tibise wider and more strongly 3-dentate than 

 in C. i:>ectonoda 9. I believe it to be an undescribed species, 

 but am not prepared to deal with it from the unique specimen I 

 possess. 



Clivina dilutipes, Putzeys. 



Ann Soc. Ent. Belg. 1868, xi. p. 12 : C. lepida, Sloane (not 

 Putzeys), Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. Wales, 1896, xxi. p. 221 : C. 

 sydneyensis, Sloane, I.e. p. 222. 



I now feel confident that the species treated of under the name 

 of C. lepida, Putz., in my "Revision" of 1896, is not that species, 

 but is C. dilutipes, Putz. I have received specimens of this 

 species from the Rev. Thos. Blackburn under the name of G. 

 dilutijjes, Putz., and now support his identification. The Clivina 

 referred to at the end of my description of C. vagans* as 

 found at Swan Hill, Victoria (on the Murray River), should, I 

 believe, be referred to C. dilutipes. I now place C. sydneyensis, 

 SI., under C. dilutipes; it is a slightly differentiated form, but I 

 doubt if it is sufficiently distinct to be recognised as a named 

 variety. 



Hab. — New South Wales and Victoria. 



Var. C. victoy^icE, var.nov, ( = C. vagans, Sloane, these Pro- 

 ceedings, xxi. 1896, p. 219). This is the form of C. dilutipes 

 found about Melbourne; it is distinguished by the dark colour of 

 the legs, and seems to merit a varietal name. 



Hab.— Vic: Lillydale.^ 



J^ote. — All the forms treated of above under C. dilutijjes have 

 in the male a strongly developed ridge on each side of the pectoral 

 part of the prosternum ending at anterior extremity in a small 

 tubercle.
