seems also to have the widest range. It is found in most parts 

 of New South Wales, and I have seen specimens from Victoria, 

 and Van Diemen's Land, and I believe also from South Australia. 



2. — PSALIDURA EUFILINEATA. 



Oblongo-elliptica nigra parce cinereo-squamosa, thorace confer- 

 tim subtiliter tuberculato, elytris rugosis striato-punc^-atis 

 interstitiis omnibus seriatim tuberculatis alternis elevatiori- 

 bus rufis tubercuUs omnibus seta bi'evi declinata nigra 

 instructis. 

 Mas : gula cornuta forfice anali valido longo. 



Long. 11 lin. lat. 4 lin. 



Hab. Newcastle. 



This species comes very close to P. mirahilis. It differs from 

 it chiefly in having the thorax more thickly and minutely 

 tuberculate, in having the humeral angles less prominent, in 

 having the sculpture of the elytra less confused, in having the 

 more elevated ridges of the elytra of a pitchy red, and in having 

 the anal appendage of the male much larger. The female is 

 shorter and broader than the male. 



All the specimens which I have of this insect are from 

 Newcastle, but I beheve it to have a wide range along the Eastern 

 portion of New South Wales. 



3. — PSALIDUEA VERRDCOSA. 



Oblongo-elliptica nigra nigro-setosa vix squamosa, capita 

 brevissimo, thorace verrucoso, elytris seriatim tuberculatis 

 seriebus alternis majoribus subpiceis interstitiis rude punc- 

 tatis. 

 Mas : gula cornuta, forfice anali valido brevi. 



Long. 12| lin. lat. 5 lin. 



Hab. New Holland. 



This fine species may be readily distinguished from P. 

 mirahilis, which it most resembles, by the thorax being covered 

 with large warty looking tubercles rather distantly placed towards 

 the middle, and by the head being covered almost to the rostrum
