punctured. Femora swollen, with upper surface curved, front 

 tibise curved, others straight. Dimensions — ^ x 2-8 mm. 



Hah. — Wavbarton District, Victoria. 



I found this very distinct and interesting specimen {.^), alas! 

 unique, amongst some heteromera kindly given me by that very 

 enthusiastic entomologist, Mr. C. French, of the Victorian Depart- 

 ment of Agriculture. It seems that Brycopia is likely to form 

 as varied and numerous a genus as Addium and Seirotrana] in 

 this case presenting similar features in its femoral adornment to 

 S, geniculata Haag-Rut., and S. femoralis Macl. It is otherwise 

 allied, in form of prothorax and general shape, to B. tuhercidijera 

 Champ., from Tasmania, which is, however, a larger and more 



robust insect.
