82 ON THE GLAPHYRID^ OF NEW HOLLAND, 



subtilissime puuctato nigro-piloso, elytris profunde sulcatis 

 testaceo-rufis apice plus minusve nigris, pedibus anticis 

 testaceis intermediis et posticis nigris." — Blanchard, 

 Long. 3 lin., lat. li lin. 

 Hab. Camden, New South Wales. 

 I have never taken this species except at Camden ; and I 

 believe it is abundant on the Bursaria sjnnosa throughout all the 

 valley of the Nepean. There is a decided approach to the next 

 section of the geuus in this insect. 



Sect. 2 



Maxillas with outer lobe penicillate, and inner very small or 

 none. Palpi not long. Body for the most part hairy. 



The insects of this section are shorter, and more convex than 

 the last, and have the body thicker and more exposed ; the palpi are 

 shorter and less filiform ; but, owing to the lengthened stipes of 

 the maxilliB and the elongated mentum, the four palpi and the 

 pencils of the maxillte extend beyond the almost pointed clypeus. 

 The species of this gi'oup are, scarcely ever found except on 

 Zieptosperimim and in early summer.

" Niger opacus, pedibus abdomineque nitidis, elytis striatis 



rufo-testaceis, tibiis anticis tridentatis." — Burmeister. 

 Long. 4 lin., lat. 2 lin. 

 Hab. Victoria and S. Aust. 



I have received specimens of this species frequently from 

 South Australia, and I believe it is common enough about Victoria. 



I think I have specimens in my collection found in New 

 Soutli Wales, but of this I am not sure.

 Paris, p. 1)?.)

 nigro-pilosis limbo apicis nigro, pedibus abdomineque nigris 

 nigro-pilosis." Blanchard.
