374 Mr. F. P. Pascoe on some new Australian Longicornia. 
prothorax nearly glabrous, a little longer than broad, the middle portion 
of its sides somewhat parallel, pitchy brown under the lens, very closely 
punctured, the intervals here and there raised into short, irregular lines 
having an oblique direction, the centre of the disk with a narrow, 
smooth, longitudinal line; scutellum nearly cordate; elytra closely and 
rather coarsely punctured, clothed with short, stiffish, grey hairs at 
short intervals, a large, oblong, fulvous patch from the base to near the 
middle, and another at the apex, the two-feebly connected along the 
suture, the apex rounded; body beneath and legs brownish fulvous, 
shining, with scattered greyish hairs; antennz shorter than the body, 
the third joint longer than the fourth, and the latter shorter than the 
fifth. Length 8 lines. 
The form of the prothorax and the fulvous patches on the elytra 
will at once distinguish this species. 
Sophron eburatus. 
S. rufo-brunneus, glaber; elytris fortiter punctatis, vitta basali, altera 
laterali et maculis posticis flavo-eburatis. 
Hab, South Australia (Mr. Odewahn). 
Reddish brown, free from pubescence, except a few small, whitish 
setze posteriorly ; head and prothorax covered with shallow, very closely 
arranged punctures; scutellum rounded, dark brown, slightly concave ; 
elytra closely and rather coarsely punctured, the apex of each somewhat 
acutely pointed ; a narrow longitudinal line at the base, another laterally 
in a line with the shoulder, and a few spots, very nearly united, poste- 
riorly, lemon-yellow, raised above the rest of the derm, and of an ivory- 
like texture; body beneath, tips of the femora, tibiz, and tarsi more or 
less brown, the rest of the femora reddish luteous. Length 6 lines. 
Differs from Sophron inornatus, Newm., in colour, strong pune- 
turing of the elytra, with their aeute apices, and the ivory lines, 
which, to a certain extent, replace the hairy lines of the former 
species.

N.B.—At Plate XV. vol. i. of this work, the numerals attached to the 
side figures have been reversed in printing, without its having been per- 
ceived by the author whose paper they illustrate ; figs. 3 & 2 and 6 & 5 
should, therefore, be transposed. We are indebted to Dr. Gerstaecker 
(Bericht, &e., 1865) for pointing out the error.—Ep.
