The long curved spur on the anterior part of the hind tibiae 

 near the apex is the most remarkable thing about this insect. 

 The thorax, too, seems to be longer than is usual in the genus.

 I have seen specimens from South Australia which, though 

 resembling this insect, I am inclined to think belong to a different 

 species. 



9. — CUBICOKHYNCHUS PICEO-SETOSUS. 



Oblongo-ellipticus niger cinereo-squamosus, thorace crebre 

 granulato dorso canaliculato lateribus subtuberculato, ely- 

 tris striato-punctatis interstitiis seriatim granulatis alternis 

 subelevatis granulis omnibus setigeris setis piceo-nigris. 

 Long. 6 lin., lat. 2| lin. 

 Hab. Tass. 

 This is the only species I have seen in which the setae are not 

 of a pale yellow colour. Its dark coloured setas and the broad 

 dorsal line of the thorax serve to distinguish it from A. morosus 

 and sepidioides.
