On the prothorax to the naked eye there appears to be a 

 moderately distinct median hne, with a feeble dark stripe on each 

 side of it. On the elytra there is a distinct median fascia composed 

 of snowy whithe setiE or scales; it is sharply defined and separately 

 concave on its hind border, and less sharply defined and convex on 

 its front liorder, and is narrowed towards the stilure, which it 

 touches at about two fifths fi'oin the apex. Beyond the fas(^ia the 

 clothing is mostly of a brownish colour, and somewhat darker tlian 

 the clothing-before the fascia ; but there is a feeble longitudinal pale 

 stripe from the preapical callosities to the apex. 



The mesosternum is not produced, the eyes are very strongly 

 convex, but embedded in the head much as in the species of 

 Panlorcitcs, instead of as in most species of Oxyops. But as there 

 are no subhumeral tubercles as in Gonipterus, and the body is not 

 very short and compact (1) but of normal appearance for the smaller 

 species of Oxyops, I have preferred to refer it to that genus. 



182. Oxyops concreta, Pasc. 



A specimen belonging to the Belgian Museum is labelled Sydney 

 (probably in error). All the other specimens I have seen are from 

 Queensland (Dawson Pviver, Brisbane, etc.).

I have examined the type of this species; it is an Oxyops, and 

 the species I supposed it to be (Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. Wales, 1900, 

 p. 539).
