very distinct, long and slender. Genitalia (<£) short, stout [too 

 much damaged for details]. 



Hab. — Mosman's Bay, near Sydney (on E. capitellata; W. W. 



Froggatt). 



Genus Phyllolyma, Scott. 



Head with crown broad, length down centre about equal to 

 half width between eyes. Face lobes narrow, ribbon-shaped. 

 Antennae short. Eyes moderately large, on side of head, their 

 inner margins separated from lateral margin of crown on its 

 ower half by a lunate or cuneate plate. Thorax : pronotum 

 narrow, convex, lateral margins convex, scarcely reaching beyond 

 middle of posterior margin of e}'es; mesonotum across insertion 

 of elytra not wider than head and eyes together ; dorsulum 

 transverse, semihexagonal. Elytra rhomboidal; stigma wide at 

 mouth; radius terminating in upper apical angle; cubitus petiole 

 shorter than upper arm, longer than lower one.

This species was described from Tasmania by Walker; and was 

 again described by Scott after examining the specimens in the 

 British Museum collections. The latter author figures the elytron, 

 a front view of the head, the antenna?, and the genitalia. 



It is a large species, measuring H lines in length; fuscous- 

 brown in colour, with broad rounded wings clouded with brown; 

 a remarkable broad angular pale blotch in the centre of elytra, 

 and three similarly coloured marks on the tips. These characters 

 should render the species easily recognisable. I have not so far 

 seen it. 



Genus Cardiaspis, Schwarz. 



Head emarginate posteriorly, vertex flat, narrowing to base of 

 antennee ; frontal processes sharply separated from vertex ;
