224 = Mr.F.P. Pascoe on some new Australian Longicornia. 
fortiter dentato ; elytris postice lineis tribus elevatis, apicem versus con- 
junctis. 
Hab. South Australia (Mr. Waterhouse). 
Robust, covered with a short greyish pile, varied with brown and 
ochraceous, with a few scattered, black, setaceous hairs; head greyish, 
without an impressed line, but the antennary tubes forming a strongly 
marked angular concavity between them; antenn as long as the body, 
brown, spotted with pale grey; prothorax full and rounded, strongly 
toothed at the side, with coarse distant punctures, two obscure brown 
stripes on the disk; scutellum transverse, greyish; elytra coarsely 
punctured, broad at the base, rounded behind the shoulders, then gra- 
dually receding, posteriorly three broad but slightly elevated lines, the 
inner two first uniting towards the apex, then the outer, behind the 
middle the usual obscure pale ashy-grey oblique band, rest of the elytra 
mingled ochraceous and grey; body beneath with a rough greyish pile, 
the abdominal segments bordered with yellowish ; legs brown, spotted 
with greyish; anterior coxz armed with a short spine. Length 7 lines. 
A very robust species, and very distinct from any other that I am 
acquainted with. The anterior coxee of the male are each armed 
with a spine, as in many others (irrespective of the genera) of the 
subfamily to which Mphona belongs. 
Symphyletes fumatus. 
S. elongatus, pube cinerascente fuscoque varius ; prothorace longiore quam 
latiore ; elytris basi spinoso-cristatis, apice ad suturam spina acuta pro- 
ductis. 
Hab, South Australia (Mr. Odewahn). * 
Elongate, covered with a short, dense, dark ashy pile, varied with 
smoky brown ; head with a narrow mesial line ; the face covered with 
long, lax greyish hairs; antennee much longer than the body, dark 
brown, spotted with. white, clothed beneath and at the base with long 
whitish hairs, the terminal joint entirely white ; prothorax longer than 
broad, the sides slightly rounded, two small tubercles on the centre of 
the disk; scutellum subquadrate, slightly rounded posteriorly; elytra 
gradually receding from the shoulders, the base of each armed with four 
rows of short black spines, the sutural row longest, the next the most 
elevated or crested, the third of two and the outer (at the shoulder) of 
one principal spine, apex somewhat truncate, the suture terminating in 
a spine, which is nearly concealed by the greater length of the pubes- 
cence at that part, the whole elytra smoky brown, with two very in- 
distinct, dark ashy bands, and spotted, especially at the base, with reddish 
yellow; body beneath covered with a loose, long silvery pile ; legs brown, 
spotted with white; the anterior tibiz short, and strongly emarginate 
internally at the base. Length 10 lines. 
In many respects this species resembles S. pedicornis, Fab. (the
