,^. 35-40 mm. (37); 9. 3G-41 mm. (39). The large size and the 

 orange colour readily distinguish this species. The sexes are 

 somewhat dissimilar in shape and pattern of marking. The 

 Australian form does not appear to diff'er in an}^ marked degree 

 from specimens from the East Indies.

This species was described from two male specimens, supposed 

 to have come from Botany Bay, having some resemblance to 

 Gandalides erinus, Fabr., as figured by Donovan. 



What the species is I cannot sa}^ The description is not good, 

 nor does there appear to be any definite character given. It is 

 the only species of LyccHuidcH for which I can find an Australian 

 record, that I am unable to place: and I can only say I doubt 

 very much if the specimens came from Australia. Kirby's name 

 was evidently given without seeing a specimen, on his finding- 

 that Kollar had described a species as L. JiypohAica some few 

 3^ears before.

Mr. Olliff caught two specimens of this species at Newcastle, 

 which, there seems to be no doubt, were imported specimens from 

 South Africa. 



In an appendix to his Catalogue, Mr. Miskin gives seven 

 reputed Australian species, but most unfortunately does not 

 mention the Australian references. Taruciis telicanus, Lang, 

 is the well known species he gives as L. ji^eudocassius, and is the 

 name that should be used. L. falemon, Cram., has been used in 

 error for Una serpent afa, Herr.-Schff*. Cyaniris p.uspa, Horsf.,
