342 REVISION OF THE AMYCTERIDES, ii., 



Two females, from Mittagong, differ in their larger size (21 x 

 8 mm.), and in having the granules on the second and fourth inter- 

 stices more rounded and not so elongated ; they probably represent 

 a variety. A male in Mr. A. M. Lea's collection probably belongs 

 to this species; it has, however, the granules of the third row in 

 single series. 



Talaurinus longipes, n.sp. 



These Proceedings, 1912, PL iii., fig. 4. 



£. Elliptical-elongate, size moderately large. Black, granules 

 subnitid ; practically without clothing. 



Head obsoletely and sparsely punctate, external rostral ridges 

 continued back towards vertex, forehead shallowly concave, with a 

 feeble median carina. Rostrum moderately long, excavate; inter- 

 nal ridges long, prominent, little convergent; lateral sulci and 

 median area forming three longitudinal sulci. Scrobes continued 

 up and back in front of eye, division obsolete, represented by a 

 slight downward projection from the external ridge. Eye depressed, 

 subrotundate. Prothorax (4*5 x 5-5 mm.) evenly rounded on 

 sides, apical margin with a feeble postocular sinuosity, collar- 

 impression faint, disc with small hemispherical granules, somewhat 

 irregular in size, moderately closely set, but not contiguous; sides 

 granulate. Elytra (13 x 8 mm.) in shape as in T. typicus, 

 shoulders noduliform, prominent; disc striate-punctate, interstices 

 tuberculate, sutural with fine granules; second with four large, 

 somewhat flattened, oval tubercles; fourth with two similar ones, 

 in both cases the tubercles spaced out and differently placed on 

 either side; third interstice finely granulate in single series, the 

 granules somewhat depressed, tending to become transversely con- 

 fluent with the intrastrial ridges ; fifth with humeral and two small 

 granules at shoulders, otherwise with granules similar to third, but 

 less distinct; sixth with a row of seven or eight stronger, rounded 

 tubercles more closely placed. Sides striate-punctate, interstices 

 obsoletely granulate. Fifth ventral segment with the impression 

 covering more than the middle third of segment, the edges ending 

 posteriorly in small tubercles, somewhat convergent. Legs long
