distinctly curved up and forming as it were a lateral furrow. Of 

 the six well developed strise, the four externa! ones form very 

 deep and broad sulci separated from each other by ridge- 

 like interstices. At the bottom these sulci seem to be, at 

 least wlien viewed from above, quite uncoloured, duU black, 

 but viewed from the side, they are light greenish, the elevated 

 interstices bluish; the fifth and sixth are separated by very 

 broad and flat transversally striated interstices, bright golden 

 green of the same colour as the sulciform börder. The naked 

 eye then only sees these three golden greenish lines; a little

further in nearer to the suture one sees the indistinct traces of 

 another stria; the tips are of the same type as in M. rivu- 

 laris Clark. The ventral side of the body is uniformly 

 shiny black, the posterior margin of the three last segments 

 rufous; the epipleurse are entirely metallic. 



Length: 14—15 mm. Breadth: 7 mm. 



Apparently, nearly related to the rivularis-Reichei-gvowp, 

 but of larger size and the elytra with differently shaped sulci. 



I have caught quite a number of this very characteristic 

 species in the smaller creeks at Malanda, Evelyne and Cedar 

 Greek in North Queensland (Febr.— June 1913).
