Tor this species also I am indebted to Dr. Howitt, of Mel- 

 bourne. The tubercles on the thorax and elytra are smaller and 

 more spherical than in the last species ; the former, also, is more 

 abruptly ampliated in the middle. The apex of the elytra is 

 rounded and crenulate.

This species is very densely covered with cinnamon coloured 

 scales, with " vittse " on the thorax and elytra of a lighter hue. 

 The forehead is not carinated. The interstices on the elytra, 

 between the rows of punctures, are remotely tuberculated, — the 

 first interstice having only two tubercles, the second a continuous 

 though distant row, the third none, and the fourth and fifth, 

 smaller, but more thickly placed tubercles. The apex of the 

 elytra is dehiscent, and somewhat obtusely acuminated. 



I have named the species after G. French Angas, Esq., from 

 whom I received this among many other of the insects of 

 South Australia.
