112 DESCRIPTION OF NEW COLEOPTERA, 



11. — CVMINDIS ANGUSTICOLLIS, 



Cerviiia subnitida, thoraco spat'sim punctato pimctis setigeris, 



elytris sulcato-punctatis. 

 Long. 3| lin., lat. 1 lin. 

 The whole insect is of a pale reddish colour. The head and 

 thorax are slightly punctured, the latter with short setae arising 

 from each puncture. The elytra are deeply channelled as in the 

 last described species, but differ in being coarsely punc- 

 tured. 



12. — SCOPODBS DENTICOLLIS. 



yBneo-niger, thorace leviter rugoso vix marginato lateribus 

 unidentatis, elytris punctato-striatis stria secunda profunde 

 tripuuctata. 

 l;ong. 2 lin., lat. ^ lin. 

 The whole surface is of a dark bronze colour finely granu- 

 lated. The thorax has a somewhat wrinkled appearance 

 with the medial line deeply marked, and with a tooth in the 

 middle of each lateral margin. The elytra are striated and 

 punctured in the strife, with three large roundish impressions 

 about the line of the second stria. 



13. — SiLPHOMORPHA MaSTBRSII. 



Nigra subnitida, elytris striato-punctatis piceo-marginatis, cor- 



pore subtus pedibusque piceis. 

 Long. 6 lin., lat. 3j lin. 



This species closely resembles the S. Oredoclwiloides (Hope) 

 from South Australia, differing from it chiefly in having the 

 thorax smoother, and the elytra more distinctly striated. The 

 head is somewhat protnbei'ant at the summit ; the thorax pre- 

 sents no appearance of punctures except under a powerful lens ; 

 the elytra are distinctly striated with a few punctures along 

 the strife. Their reciu-ved margins are of a pitchy hue, as are 

 also -the legs and under surface of the body. I have named 

 the species after Mr. Masters, a member of our Society, and a 

 most indefatigable and intelligent collector.
