and GyrimdiB of Australasia. 417 



I am indebted to Dr. Schaum for a t^^pical example of this species 

 from the cabinet of Germar.

19, H. multimaculatus, n. sp. 



H. ovatus, subparallelus, sat latiis, valde punctatus, flavo-ferrugineus, 

 elytris uigro maculatis. 



Long. Corp. 1 lin., lat. | lin. 



Subparallel, thickly and coarsely pimctate throughout, impubescent, 

 in colour flavo-fen-uginous : head finely punctate, rufo-tlaTous, the basal 

 line being fuscous : the sides of the thorax are parallel, the surface 

 thickly punctate ; between and connecting the fovese, near the basal 

 line, is a weU-defined transverse fovea ; the surface in colour is flavo- 

 femiginous, the margination and anterior margin being narrowly fus- 

 cous, and the basal line more broadly so, with a dark conspicuous cloud 

 of fuscous situated medially and extending to the anterior margin ; the 

 black basal marking extends on either side only to the lateral fovea : 

 elytra subparallel, thickly and coarsely punctate, in colour flavo-fer- 

 ruginous, with thickly scattered fuscous markings ; these markings are 

 sometimes isolated, subcircular in form, and minute ; sometimes, espe- 

 cially transversely, post-medially, they are confluent, and give an appear- 

 ance of a transverse band ; they present also the appearance of a longi- 

 tudinal marking near to and parallel to the suture, and it is probable that 

 in different examples the degree of these markings may differ : legs and 

 antennce flavous. 



H. multimaculatus is closely allied to H. sinuatocollis ; the macula- 

 tions on the elytra are more numerous, and the sides of the thorax 

 are parallel. It corresponds more closely still to pale examples of 

 H. Meadfootii ; it is longer in form, the transverse thoracic fovea is 

 much more abrupt and distinct, the punctations of the siuface are 

 deeper, and the maculations of the elytra are smaller, more nume- 

 rous, and less confluent. 



I possess a single example of this species, received some years 

 ago from Mr. Stevens : locality " South Australia." 



20. H. Hansardii, n. sp. 



H. oblongo-ovatus, postice attenuatus, crebre punctatus, niger, flavo 

 maculatus. 



Long. coq). 1^ lin., lat. 5-f lin. 



Oblong-ovate, parallel, somewhat attenuated at the apex, thickly and 

 deeply punctate, black : head -with two small pmictations between the 

 eyes, black, with a medial longitudinal line of dark rufous : thorax 

 broad, subparallel, in front the anterior angles rounded ; the surface is
