I have never received this species from Australia, but I have 

 a specimen so ticketed from a French collection.

The elytra in this species are convex , not depressed or rather 

 concave as in the preceding, but this may be a sexual cha- 

 racter. The rostrum also is shorter and the scape is inserted at 

 the posterior part of the large scrobe. The setae are long aad 

 nearly erect, not small and decumbent as in C. echinatus, which, 

 however, scarcely agrees with Fabricius's description.

A most variable species, differing in colour-markings, scul- 

 pture, contour, and comparative length of the antennal joints. 

 My Isomerinthus scaposus is one of the varieties. The genus is 

 a most difficult one : I am unable to separate some of the nu- 

 merous specimens now before me satisfactorily.
