I have seen except G. ftdgens) is most strongly exhibited in this 

 species, the tibioa being quite spatuHform. 



ID. — C. FASCICULATA. 



Nigra nitida pilosa elytris rufo-fasciatis disco postice subcar- 



inato, apiceque fasciculate, corpore subtus testaceo-piloso. 

 Long. 6 lin., lat. 3 lin. 

 Hab. Illawarra. 

 Black and shining ; the head is covered with yellowish hair ; 

 the thorax and elytra with black ; the dorsal line of the thorax 

 is much elevated in front, forming a protruded point. The 

 elytra, which have a wavy red fascia in the middle, are depressed 

 behind the scutellum, and carinated towards the apex, near which 

 are two bundles of long reddish hair ; the under surface is 

 testaceo-pilose, with tufts and brushes of the same colour on the 

 mesothorax and abdominal segments. 



I have one specimen of this insect from Illawarra. I have 

 never seen it elsewhere.

Nigra nitida incano-pilosa thorace punctato, elytris sulcatis 

 punctatis octoguttatis guttis flavis, pygidii disco piloso.

 Upper and under surface black, shining, and incano-pilose, 

 the thorax is punctate, the scutellum is long, narrow, pointed,

 which is densely punctured, with scattered punctures over the 

 rest of their surface. There are four small yellow spots on each 

 elytron, two discal, of which, one is above, the other below the 

 middle, and two lateral, one just below the humeral swelling, 

 the other in the middle ; the pygidium has a narrow line of 

 gray hair down the centre, and there are tufts of the same over 

 the entire' under surface. 



I have seen another insect evidently belonging to this sub- 

 section in the Cabinet of Mr. W. S. MacLeay, at Elizabeth Bay. 

 It is labelled Howittli, MacLeay, and is from Port Phillij^.
