impunctate. Abdomen with irre<rular punctures, those on middle 

 of first segment as on middle of metasternum. Legs long and thin. 

 Length, 3 mm. 



Hah. — N.W. Australia (type in Macleay Museum). 



The profrhoracic punctures are larger than in any other species 

 known to me. 



There are four small but distinct fascicles on each side of the sub- 

 basal depression, two being directed forwards and two backwards, 

 the outer ones are silightly larger than the inner ones ; there also 

 appear to be remnants of others. Tbe depression itself, from above, 

 appears to be in three parts, a median space as in other species 

 (except that it is somewhat shallower, with the subsutural elevations 

 less noticeable) and a large round foveate space, interrupted by 

 fascicles, nearer the side than the middle of each elytron. The elytra 

 about the shoulders have sculpture much as f n the head ; on the 

 basal part of the depression the surface is mostly smooth, but about 

 its middle the punctures appear curved, and then to near the apex as 

 very elongated ones or broken striae ; about the apex they curve 

 round, becoming wider than long. The epipleurae are smooth (much 

 as if cicatrised) in a line with the subbasal depression, and towards 

 this space all the punctures or irregular striation appear directed. 

 Parts of the under surface are finely shagreened. The hind legs are 

 about the length of the entire body, the others are somewhat shorter ; 

 tne front femora are not fully receivable into excavations ; the tibiae 

 are angular towards the base (the hind pair less noticeably than the 

 others) and thence to apex each has a narrow flange, but the flanges 

 are only of such a width that the greatest width of the tibiae is about 

 equal to the width of the tip of the femora. 



Chlamydi)psis fpi jt/fiirahs, n.sp. 



Chestnut brown ; in places somewhat infuscated. With moderately 

 long grilden setae, absent from pronotum. 



Head with numerous hirge shallow punctures or areolets. Antennae 

 with first joint large, strongly curved inwards and strongly angular 

 outwardly, with punctures or areolets as on head ; club elongate- 

 ovate, much smaller than first joint, and scarcely as long as inter- 

 mediate joints combined. I'rotliora r about thrice as wide as the 

 sides are long, sides gently incurved to middle and feebly elevated ; 

 apex more noticeably elevated, and directly from above, its median 

 half straight but thence oblique to sides ; disc moderately convex ; 

 surface with dense and very shallow punctures or very small areolets ; 

 a rather small depressicm or shallow fovea on carh side near base, 

 the two equidistant from each other and from the sides. Elytra 

 slightly longer than wide ; towards base with a large depression,
