Mr. J.S. Baly on the Species of Paropsis. 307 
ginatis, disco irregulariter punctato, ad latera excavato, et ibi foveolato, 
varioloso-punctato ; elytris croceis, profunde punctatis, interspatiis ele- 
vatis verrucosis, singulorum disco maculis parvis subelevatis nonnullis 
in vittas interruptas dispositis, leete flavis; tarsis plerumque piceis. 
Mas. Tarsorum anticorum quatuor articulus basalis dilatatus, ovalis, apice 
truncato: @deagus fortiter curvatus, a basi apicem versus paullo ampli- 
atus, apice late angulato-rotundatus, apice ipso dente brevi recurvato 
armato.—Long. 43-53 lin. 
Hab. Adelaide. 
Head punctured; epistome separated from the face by an angular 
groove ; eyes and apex of jaws black ; antennze slender, filiform. Thorax 
more than twice as broad as long, sides deeply bisinuate before their 
middle, apical angle submucronate; disk irregularly punctured, sides 
broadly excavated, impressed with a large, smooth fovea, variolose- 
punctate. Elytra much wider than the thorax, somewhat dilated pos- 
teriorly, their apex very broadly rounded; shoulders nearly rectangular, 
their apex obtuse, sides sinuate immediately behind the anterior angle ; 
above very convex, deeply impressed with piceous punctures, lateral 
margin broadly dilated, its punctures concolorous with the general sur- 
face ; along its inner edge is a row of large, irregularly confluent, slightly 
raised, impunctate, bright fulvous patches; on the inner disk are also 
two or more vitt, more or less interrupted, formed of similar patches, 
but somewhat smaller than those on the lateral border. Prosternum 
equal in breadth to that of P. geographica, broadly sulcate, surface of 
the groove rngose. 
This species is apparently not so common as many of the others; 
it has been sent to this country by Mr. Waterhouse of Adelaide. 
Paropsis carnosa. 
P, subrotundata, 3; late ovata, 9; valde convexa, flavo-fulva aut crocea, 
nitida, supra rufo-testacea ; antennis flavis, ad apicem aut vix infuscatis 
aut nigris, rarius corpore concoloribus ; thorace lateribus medio profunde 
angulato-emarginatis, antice obliquis plus minusve sinuatis, disco sub- 
crebre punctato, ad latera late foveolato, rugoso-varioloso; elytris pro- 
funde subcrebre piceo punctatis, interstitiis irregulariter elevato-tuber- 
culatis. 
Mas. Tarsorum anticorum quatuor articulus basalis sat dilatatus, ovatus, 
apice truncato: @deagus abrupte curvatus, parallelus, apice angulato- 
rotundatus, apice ipso dente brevissimo obtuso recurvato armato ; 
subtus subcorneus.—Long. 43-53 lin. 
Hab. Adelaide. 
Head closely punctured ; epistome short, separated from the face by 
a slightly angular groove; antennz more than half the length of the 
body, flavous, slightly stained with piceous towards their apex, rarely 
black; apex of jaws and eyes black. Thorax nearly three times as 
broad as long, sides angularly notched in the middle, thence nearly
