separate it from " ISTo. 3 " on a single specimen, and without a 

 knowledge that the form of the lower side of the tibiae was con- 

 stant; especially seeing that gummed on the same card, and 

 therefore presumably from the same locality, was a specimen 

 exactly resembling it, but with femora as in C. angustida.

In his unsatisfactory note on this species all that M. Putzeys 

 has to say is that it is with hesitation he separates this 

 species from C. angustula, which it resembles in every respect 

 except that the prothorax is a little broader and especially 

 decidedly flatter. The colour is as variable as in 0. angustida. 

 All the specimens seen came from Melbourne.

" Testaceo-flava, capite prothoraceque obscurioribus. Caput in 

 vertice late nee profunde foveolatum, parce punctulatum. Pro- 

 thorax brevis subquadratus, angulis anticis deflexis, lateribus 

 I'ectis, utrinque in medio praesertim punctatus. Elytra sub- 

 cylindrica, basi truncata, humeris rotundatis, striis integris 

 punctatis, interstitio 3° quadripunctato. Tibise antice latse, apice 

 longe digitatse, extus bidigitattie denticuloque superiore armatae.

Putzeys' remarks on this species are A'ery full. I select for 

 translation those bearing on important features.. 



Of a testaceous red, with the head, prothorax, and apex of the 

 mandibles of a clear brown. The epistoma is rather narrow, a 

 little emarginate; its angles are prominent and project beyond 

 the little wings, which are very definitely separated from them; 

 the anterior elevation is hardly marked, glabrous, separated from 

 the vertex by a deep irregular punctate impression. 



The vertex bears a longitudinal fovea, in the centre of which 

 some large punctures are noticeable; the occiput and the sides of
