same obtains in the dark })ands of all the tcrgitcs. Kxtienie lateral margin of all the 

 tergites narrowly brown ; posterior border of the pronotum banded black extending 

 to the angles. Mesonotum testaceous with a black band anteriorly and posteriorly, 

 the former not reaching the latersrl margins. Tegmina vestigial, only ])artly separated 

 from the mesonotum, testaceous with the tips blackish brown. Metanotum similar 

 in colouring, the posterior angles slightly produced ; no vestiges of wings. Abdominal 

 tergites testaceous, with a broad blackish-bro«n band occupying the posterior border, 

 but narrowing laterally ; angles of the 5th, tith, and 7th tergites backwardly produced ; 

 posterior margin of the 7th tergite sinuate, lateial margins entire. Supra-anal lamina 

 of (^ subquadrate, short, widely emarginate, cihate, lateral margins entire, medially 

 longitudinally sulcate, the sulcus broad at the base and occupied by a pointed brown 

 streak, the point not reaching the apex of the emargination. Cerci about twice the 

 length of the lamina, testaceous. 



Supra-anal lamina of $ longer, triangular, apex truncate, emarginate, lateral 

 margins entire, not concealing the tips of the subgenital valves, testaceous, with a 

 broad-based triangular blackish macula basally situate. Subgenital lamina of (J 

 subquadrate, about equalling the supra-anal lamina in length, angles obtuse, concavely 

 emarginate, of a bright pale brown. Styles stout, long, and acuminate, placed 

 externally to the angles. Beneath: thoracic sternites te.staceous ; abdominal sternites 

 bright pale brown on the disc with a broad testaceous lateral border. Legs testaceous, 

 spines brownish ; posterior metatarsus longer than the remaining joints together, 

 biseriately spincd beneath ; pulvillus apical ; remaining joints with their indvilli 

 occupying their whole length, unspined ; arolia large ; anterior and middle metatarsi 

 long, the latter biseriately spined beneath in the basal third, pulvillus apical.

Habitat. — Waddouring, W. Australia, Oct. 1915. (Presented by the West 

 Australian Museum.) 



Notes. — The species in colouring bears a great resemblance to C. triangulata 

 Brunner {Leptozosteria secunda Tepper), but is smaller, not so depressed, and the 

 form of the supra-anal lamina of ^J is different. The pronotal marking of triangulata 

 is quite distinctive. 



CUTILIA KELLYI sp. nov. 



(J nigro-castaneous, of small size, convex species. Head rufo-castaneous, 

 with the ocelliform spots, and margin of the clypeus pale ; eyes black ; antennse rufo- 

 castaneous, longer than the body. Pronotum parabolic, forming in transverse section 

 an arch almost semicircular, posterior margin straight, smooth, nitid, with a few 

 erect hairs, and scattered punctures, dark castaneous. Mesonotum and metanotum 

 similar ; tegminal vestiges completely separated, more thickly punctate, sharply 

 pointed, and extending slightly beyond the tergite ; postero-lateral angles of the 

 metanotum somewhat backwardly produced. Abdominal tergites darker than the 

 thoracic, almost piceous posteriorly ; lateral margins rufo-castaneous ; postero- 

 lateral angles backwardly produced ; 2nd to 5th tergites slightly scabrous laterally.
