Hab. : Queensland : Coen River (type in H. Hacker's Collection). 



A short robust species not very close to any other known to me, 

 but in build somewhat resembling pictipes. 



Lemidia flavifrons n. sp. (fig. 24). 



Black, in places with a feeble greenish gloss; front half of head, 

 angles of prothorax, base (the marking continued along suture), a 

 submedian fascia, and apex of each elytron, antennse, palpi, ail tro- 

 chanters and parts of four front legs more or less flavous. Clothing 

 much as in the preceding species, except that it is paler and on the 

 elytra slighty longer and less regular.
