tus of Part II., p. 103) is given in pi. VII., fig. 6. The generic 

 description is founded upon this species, the only one of which 

 I have seen more than a single specimen. 



Sp. 13. B. punctatus. 

 (Described under the name Ti/rus suhulcdus in Part II., p. 103.) 



As I have given it a new name and placed it in a new genus, 

 I would substitute the following as its more correct specific 

 description. 



Piceus creberrime punctatus setosus ; capite ante oculos quan- 

 doqiie variolate ; thorace obcordato antice rotundato ; 

 elytris linea suturali altera discoidali dimidiata notatis.

Paramatta ; South Creek ; Prospect Hill ; under stones. 

 This species is readily distinguished by its deep punctures,

Sp. 14. R. corniger. 

 Castaneus setosus ; capite punctulato, pone antennas transverse 

 emarginato duobus setis (?) crassis conspicuo ; thorace 

 punctulato obcordato ; elytris linea suturali, discoidali 

 nulla notatis.

 Mr. Masters at tlie Clyde River under a log. It is not well 

 mounted for examination. The smaller punctures and the deep 

 emargination behind the antennas, together with its lighter 

 colour and smaller size, distinguish it from JR. punctatus. 



Sp. 15. R. emarginatus. 

 Castaneus politus setosus : capite pone antennas profunde 

 transverse emarginato ; thorace obcordato ; elytris punc- 

 tulatis, stria suturali altera discoidaH dimidiata notatis. 

 Long. y^. Paramatta. 

 Larger than the preceding, more polislied, and without the 

 horns on the forehead. It is, however, possible that the difler-
