Genera and Species of Coleoptera. 447 
incrassati, art. duobus basalibus transversis, ultimo obconico. Pro- 
thorax transversus, lateraliter marginatus, apice paulo productus, basi 
ad elytra arcte applicatus, subbisinuatus. Elytra brevia, parallela, 
prothorace paulo latiora. Pedes breves; femora crassa; tibie modice 
elongate, subtrigone ; tas? subpentameri, eequales, articulis tribus 
basalibus crassis, transversis, quarto minuto, quinto ceteris simul 
sumptis longiore, unguiculis simplicibus. Core antics ovate, haud 
approximate, intermedi globose, distantes. Prosternum quadratum. 
Mesosternum declive, postice bilobatum. Epimera metathoracica pa- 
rallela, postice truncata. Abdomen segmentis quinque subzequalibus. 
Corpus fere parallelum. 
The subpentamerous tarsi, in the absence of any other striking 
character, appear to me to indicate the place of this genus to be 
among the Telmatophilide, the genera of which are not, however, 
very obviously connected, except by the above character. 
Cnecosa fulvida, (Pl. XVIII. fig. 2. 
C. oblonga, clare fulva, leviter pubescens; oculis nigris. 
Hab. New South Wales. 
Oblong, clear fulvous-yellow, with a short, sparse, stiffish pubescence ; 
head and prothorax finely punctured, the latter with an impressed line 
close to its base ; scutellum transverse, slightly contracted at the base ; 
elytra moderately seriate-punctate, with two rows of minute punctures 
between them; body beneath golden yellow, finely punctured. Length 
2 lines. 
Anrrisis [Scarabeeidee }. 
Caput transversum, verticale, clypeo inflecto. Oculi rotundati, sub angulis 
anticis prothoracis occulti. Antenne 9-articulate ; scapo elongato, 
curvato ; art. 2 cylindrico, crasso ; 3 obconico ; 4, 5, 6 transversis ; 7, 8, 9 
lamellatis. Mentum antice rotundatum, in medio emarginatum. Labium 
membranaceum, ciliatum, minutum. Palpi labiales cylindrici, breves. 
Mazille \obo externo triangulari, interno membranaceo. Palpit maxil- 
lares elongati, art. ult. elongato securiformi. Prothorax transverso- 
quadratus, longitudinaliter carinatus. Elytra prothorace haud latiora, 
carinata, oblonga; pygidio obtecto. Pedes mediocres; femora antica et 
intermedia grossa, postica fusiformia ; tzbie tenuatee, apice paulo dila- 
tate, haud serratze; farsi lineares, postici longiores. Core postice 
distantes. Abdomen segmentis 6, penultimo majore. 
Apparently very closely allied in habit and characters to Ryparus, 
Westw., but differing from that and all the other genera of Apho- 
diinee in the widely separated posterior coxe. My example was 
kindly presented to me by W. Wilson Saunders, Esq. ; another is in 
Mr. Wallace’s Collection.
