322 NEW SPECIES OF AMYCTERID^, 



and tubercles are furnished with a black seta. The whole 

 insect is much covered with whitish scales disposed in vitta? 

 and spots, the elytra particularly, which are almost entirely 

 white. There is a dark velvety patch on the anal segment of the 

 abdomen. 



I have never seen but one specimen of this well marked 

 species, and that is probably a male. 



SCLERORINUS SABULOSUS. 



Oblongo-ellipticus niger cinereo-squamosus, rostro medio 

 carinato, thorace confertim tuberculato tuberculis parvis 

 hemisphgericis setigeris setis flavis, elytris seriatim punctatis 

 granulatis granulis setigeris interstitiis 2-4 et 5 tuberculatis 

 tuberculis subnitidis parvis apice conjunctim rotundatis.

 Hab. Flinders Range, South Australia. 

 This species is longer, narrower, and more convex than 

 S. Adelaidce. The granules, or rather small tubercles in the 

 middle of the thorax are rather depressed, and they are all both 

 on the thorax and elytra furnished with a yellow seta. The 

 elytra have the second, forth, and lateral instertices regularly and 

 closely tuberculated, the tubercles being small and scarcely 

 conical. 



In the two specimens before me, the first interstice from the 

 suture is represented by two small tubercles on the right side, 

 and one on the left. The elytra are also rounded at the apex. 



SCLKROKINIS ARENOSUS. 



Oblongo-ellipticus niger confertim cinereo-squamosus, rostro 

 medio vix carinato, thorace crebre tuberculato tuberculis 

 parvis hemisphtericis setigeris setis nigris, elytris seriatim 

 punctatis granulatis granulis setigeris interstitiis 2-4 et 5 

 confertim tuberculatis tuberculis subnitidis subtransversis 

 apice conjunctim rotandatis.
