ARTHUR M. LEA, CRYPTOPHAGIDAE, CUCUJIDAE ETC. 9 



$ Differs in having the head smaller, eyes less prominent, 

 more of the muzzle and under-surface dark, and subapical 

 segment of abdomen not deeply incised. 



Hab. — Queensland: Malanda (Dr. E. Mjöberg). Type 

 in Stockholm Museum. 



The flavous parts of the male are portions of three basal 

 joints of antennae, prothorax (a large black discaj blotch 

 excepted), scutellum, an oblique vitta on each elytron (com- 

 mencing near the shoulder and terminated near the apex), 

 and their tips, most of stern, tips of most of the abdominal 

 segments, coxae, femora (except knees), and base of tibiae. 

 The species is allied to S. annulatus, but the prothoracic 

 blotch is subbasal, instead of subapical, and the elytra have 

 a black elongate triangle on the suture, isolating a påle vitta 

 on each elytron. In S. flavoincliisus, which has the prothorax 

 immaculate, there is a black subtiiargular space at the base 

 of the elytra, but it is very short (much wider than long) 

 whereas on the present species the sutural portion is wider 

 than long, the påle vittae also extend to the ddes near the 

 shoulders, instead of being completely enclosed by black, as 

 on that species. 



Selenurus apiciniger sp. nov. — Fig. 4. 



(^ Black and flavous. Clothed vvith short and mostly 

 ashen pubescence. 



Head rather wide across eyes, strongly narrowed to base; 

 with minute punctures. Antennae rather long and thin, third 

 joint about half the length of fourth. Prothorax slightly 

 transverse, surface uneven, margins thickened; punctures 

 minute. Elytra thin and narrowed posteriorly, terminated 

 considerably before apex of abdomen; with dense rugulose 

 punctures. Subapical segment of abdomen semicircularly in- 

 cised. Legs long and thin. Length (J?), 5—7 mm. 



5 Differs in having the head smaller, with less prominent 

 eyes, less of muzzle påle, and in the abdomen. 



Hab. — Queensland: Herberton, Cedar Creek (Dr. E. 

 Mjöberg), Mackay (R. E. Turner). Type male and cotype 

 feraale in Stockholm Museum; type female, 1, 12208, in South

The flavous parts of the male are much of the muzzle,
