This insect, as well as the former species, whs sent to England by 

 Captain Roe from the vicinity of the Swan River. None of the 

 E later idee approach them in the length of the antenna?, from which 

 I have chiefly drawn the generic characters ; and I think it is not im- 

 probable that Bupresiidce, somewhat, approaching this genus, will 

 eventually be found in the same wonderful country.
