192 ON THE AUSTRALIAN CLIVINIDES, 



the head alike bear some punctures. The eyes are very promi- 

 nent and project decidedly beyond the large wings; the posterior 

 border extends over half their breadth. 



The prothoi^ax is almost square, a little broader than long; the 

 anterior margin is not emarginate; the sides are straight; the 

 anterior angles are obtuse, but depressed; the border widens a 

 little and forms a slight prominence at the posterior angles, 

 wliich are marked by a large puncture; the surface is very lightly 

 convex; the median line is wider and deeper anteriorly than 

 towards the base; each side of the prothorax is covered with 

 punctures, which ax'e particularly distinct in the middle and do 

 not extend to the base; the two lateral impressions are oblong 

 and very ligljtly marked. 



The elytra are a little wider than the prothorax, cylindrical, 

 truncate at the base; their shoulders are rounded; the striae are 

 deep and very distinct for their whole length, punctate almost to 

 the apex; the interstices are lightly convex. The head is strongly 

 rugose beneath; the prothorax is much more finely rugose and 

 transversely striolate. The abdomen is smooth. The anterior 

 trochanters form a feeble prominence at the base of the femora; 

 the tibiae are wide, strongly digitate externally, and sulcate on 

 upper surface; the intermediate tibipe have three or four spiniform 

 bristles above the spur.

I have been unable to identify C. Jiava among the species I 

 have seen.
