228 MEMOIRS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 



EDUSA DECEMLINEATA sp. nov. 



9 Dull coppory bronze, elytra somewhat purplish, under surface more 

 shining; labrum, basal half of antenna^ basal joints of palpi, and parts of legs 

 reddish. Densely clothed with short, ashen or white pubescence, on the elytra 

 forming ten distinct lines. 



Head shagreened and with minute punctures, distinct only on front of 

 clypeus, median line feebly impressed and confined to basal half. Antennae 

 long and thin. Protliorax shagreened and indistinctly punctate. Elytra densely 

 and tinely granulate-punctate, with larger, but not confluent, punctures scattered 

 about, and forming geminate rows. Femora stout, front pair acutely dentate. 

 Length, 5-25-5-75 mm.

There are ten well-defined lines of pale pubescence on the elytra, each line 

 bounded by geminate rows of punctures ; the tip of the clypeus and a small 

 space near each antenna are metallic green. To associate the species with others 

 in my table^'^ a new section w^ould be required, as it could hardly be placed in F, 

 as the elytra are conspicuously striped, and as they are without longer hairs it 

 could not be referred to FF. 



COLASPOIDES FASCICULATA sp. nov. 

 $ Testaceous with a conspicuous brassy-green gloss; under surface, 

 antennffi, palpi, and legs paler and not metallic ; tips of seventh, eighth, and 

 eleventh joints of antennae infuscated. 



Head with fairly dense but unevenly distributed punctures ; with a shallow 

 median line. Third joint of antennje distinctly shorter than fourth. Protliorax 

 about twice as wide as long, sides evenly rounded, all angles dentate ; middle with 

 rather sparse punctures, somewhat larger than those on head, but becoming 

 larger and denser on sides. ScutelliDu impunctate. Elytra rather elongate, 

 parallel-sided to beyond middle, with rather dense and fairly large punctures 

 about base, more crowded and transversely confluent behind shoulders, much 

 smaller and seriately arranged posteriorly. Abdornen shallowly depressed, with 

 long straggling hairs, fourth segment carinated along middle, fifth irregularly 

 impressed. Legs rather long, front femora stout and acutely dentate; basal 

 joint of front and of middle tarsi large and slightly concave on lower surface; 

 hind tibiffi rather thin and longer than the others, gently emarginate on lower 

 surface near apex, a loose fascicle before the emargination, tip with a long curved 

 fascicle; basal joint of hind tarsi shorter than the rest combined. Length ( (J $ ), 

 7-7-5 mm. 



9 Differs in being less elongate, abdomen simple, legs shorter, hind tibia; 

 simple, and basal joint of front and middle tarsi shorter, and much thinner.
