I agree with the opinion of the Rev. T. Blackburn in consider- 

 ing the insect he described under the name of Kreusleri as being 

 really this species, all the more so that King says of the maxillary 

 palpi that the penultimate joint is more elongate ; this is in 

 accordance with the insect. 



Ctenisophus Kreusleri, King. 



Trans Ent. Soc. N.S.W. i. 1866, p. 300; Blackburn, Trans. 

 R. Soc. S. Aust. 1889, p. 137. 



The head is large, triangular; the antennal tubercle strong and 

 hardly transverse; the inter-ocular fovea? much stronger than the 

 frontal one; the eyes are large; underneath the two spines are 

 very long, strong and prominent on each side of the head; the 

 prothorax is hardly transverse, equally narrowed in front and 

 behind with the posterior angles well marked, the sides are a 

 little rounded, the lateral foveae are well marked and nearly sulci - 

 form, the median one slightly bifurcate, which makes the disc of 

 the prothorax appear a little gibbose and irregular; the maxillary 

 palpi are long and slender, the 2nd joint is angulate at its base, 

 ampliate towards the apex with a short appendage, the 3rd joint 

 is elongate, narrow, angularly dilated before the middle, with a 

 very long appendage, the 4th one is small, triangular; the internal 

 angle is very sharp laterally, the external one still sharper and 

 provided with a long appendage. 



£. Joints 8-10 of the antennae are of about the same 

 length, but increase slightly in width, 10 being as broad as long, 

 11 is ovate with the sides nearly parallel, acuminate at apex and 

 not quite so long as the three preceding ones.
