A very narrow species with the pectoral canal well defined in 

 front, but perhaps not more so than in most species of the genus. 

 In the table given by me (Trans. Roy. Soc. S. Aust., 1899, p. 187), 

 it would be associated with contortus and captiosus; from the former 

 it may be distinguished by the third aud fourth abdominal segments 

 having perfectly straight sutures, and from the lalter by its more 

 elongate form and very different clothing. In general appearance it 

 is not very close to any other species known to me. 



The parts that are red or reddish are the rostrum, antennae, legs 

 (the femora, however, are more or less deeply stained with black) 

 apex of prothorax, elytra (except for a large medio-lateral blotch) 

 and most of abdomen. On the head and base of rostrum the scales 

 are whitish and rather dense, but apparently easily abraded. On the 

 prothorax they are of a more or less brilliant golden green, but not 

 of an uniform shade throughout. On the elytra there are several 

 patches of almost snowy whiteness, shading off in places into pale 

 brown, along the suture the scales are generally somewhat ochreous. 

 On the under surface the scales are dense and mostly white.

This genus(l)was referred with some doubt by Mr Blackburn to 

 the Eiirhinides ; to me it seems closely allied to Auletes, and I have 

 no hesitation in referring it to the Rhinomacerides. 



633. CAR PINI n. sp. 



(^. Reddish testaceous, a large post-median spot on each elvtron 

 and often parts of under surface and of appendages infuscate. 

 Clothed with rather long loose adpressed pubescence, the elytra in 

 addition with thin erect set?e. 



Bead with dense but partially concealed punctures. Rrstrum 

 moderately curved, the length of front tibiae; with coarse partly 



(1) My identification of the typical species, condeftsatw, has been confirmed by 

 Mr Blackburn.
