 Synonymy. — According to the descriptions Panops 

 baudiui, Lamarck, and Mesophysa marginatis, Macquart, 

 were described from male specimens, and Mesophysa austral- 

 asi^, Thomson, and Panops laniarckianus, Westwood, were 

 described from female specimens; all belonging to the same 

 species. 



Hab. — New South Wales, Sydney. A pair of speci- 

 mens in the Macleay Museum bear a label conveying the in- 

 formation that they were taken on Sydney Swamp, and that 

 they are the two sexes of the same species, which is identified 

 as Panops bandini, Lamarck. The identification appears to 

 be correct. There are two further specimens in the Macleay 

 Museum, and two in the Australian Museum.

Hab. — New South Wales and Victoria. 



Note. — The specimens examined are invariably males, 

 which suggests that only the distinctive males have been 

 recognised, and the females may be normal to the genus in 

 shape, and either confused with Panops baudini, Lamarck, or 

 may have been placed under another genus such as Epicerina 

 nigricornis, Macquart.
