most to resemble G. Spencii, which is undoubtedly a tridentate 

 species. 



8. — Carenum sumptuosum, Westw. (Arc. Ent. 1, p. 86.) 

 " C. angustius nigrum, igneo colore varium, eljtris laovibus 

 punctis duobus versus basin alterisque duobus subapicalibus, 

 tibiis anticis externe bidentatis." — Westwood. 

 Long. 10 Kn., lat. 3 lin.

 " Cylindricum nigrum, nitidum, capita maximo, jDronoto viridi,

 apicali externo." — Westwood.

 Hab. Port Essington. 

 In form, this species resembles the following one, but its 

 unidentated tibias if rightly described, seem to remove it far from 

 any other known species. 



10. — Carenum tinctillatum, Newm. (Arc. Ent. 1, p. 86.) 

 Eutoma tinctillatus, Neiom. (Ent. Mag. -5, p. 171.)

 Hab. Australia. 

 I have an imperfect specimen of what I believe to be this 

 insect, but I do not know the exact locality where it was found. 

 The narrow cylindrical species of Garcnum, such as this and the 

 last described insect, ought perhaps to constitute a subdivision as 

 suggested by Reiche, to which Newman's name of JEutoma may 

 be affixed. 



11. — Carenum intermedium, Westw. (Trans. Ent. Soc. 5, p. 203.) 

 '• Nigrum, nitidum, subangustum, parallelum, capite utrinque

 anticis bidentatis." — Westwood.
