Nkav South \Vales, liatluir.st; Victorta, Healcsville ; Tasmania, 

 Deloraiiie ; November, six s])ecimens. Confused with oxytoma in 

 my description of that species, and extremely similar in markings, 

 but distinct by white a])ical third of antennas in both sexes, and 

 entire absence of the dark fuscous abdominal hairpencils in S. I 

 redescribe oxytoma with corrected characters and localities.

 costa and a smaller one at | ; a streak along dorsum fiora base to .|, 

 a small irregular spot (sometimes black-marked above) beyond this 

 and sometimes confluent with it, and several indistinct irregular 

 dots on termen and costa towards apex ; sometimes a small dot is 

 indicated in disc at |, a blackish longitudinal streak traversing it and 

 extended to apex : cilia whitish, sprinkled black near base, a black
