tion the barbs are almost the length of the scapes and project 

 upward and outward and then downward and slightly inward; 

 in another specimen they are scarcely the length of the 1st 

 funicular joint, and are projected backwards and inwards. The 

 males are usually larger than the females. The clothing and 

 elytral tubercles are subject to variation. The length varies 

 from 9 to 16 mm. 



Glochinorrhinus evanidus, Lea, Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. Wales, 

 1895, Vol. X. (2nd Ser.) p.306; G. Cooki, Faust, Stett. Ent. 

 Zeit. 1895, p.227. 



The paper containing the description of G. evanidits was read 

 in May and published in November, 1895. Herr J. Faust 

 informs me that G. Cooki was not published till February, 1896, 

 so that my name has priority.
