140 Mr. Arthur M. Lea’s Catalogue of 
Mr. Blackburn as this species, but they differ from the 
description in having the clothing of a reddish-brown; in 
all other respects, however, they agree with the description.

paler. Upper surface with long blackish hair mingled with shorter 
whitish hair ; under-surface with greyish pubescence.

but evenly convex, with numerous distinct but not quite evenly 
distributed punctures. Scutellwm very distinct. Hlytra strongly

narrow and suddenly terminated at hind cox. Under-swrface with

Hab. TASMANIA: Hobart, Mount Wellington. 
The outline is a perfect oval. The whitish hair gives 
the upper-surface a faintly speckled appearance and from 
some directions appears to be in about five feeble bands 
across the elytra. Several specimens were taken dead at 
Sandy Bay whilst searching for blind sand-beetles, others 
were taken from moss on trees. 
In general appearance rather close to vawcus but smaller 
and narrower than that species, the under-surface paler 
and with much smaller and sparser punctures, the legs 
paler, the clothing different, and the punctures of the 
elytra smaller, sparser and less uniform. 
PEDILOPHORUS BRYOPHAGUS, n. sp. 
Of a bright metallic green with a slight coppery gloss; under- 
surface black, legs dull red, antennz and tarsi somewhat paler, 
Under-surface and appendages sparsely pubescent, elsewhere gla- 
brous. 
Head widely rounded in front, with fairly large and numerous 
clearly-defined punctures, Antenne with third joint distinctly 
thinner than and almost twice the length of third. Prothorax 
strongly convex, the sides almost vertical, with numerous compara- 
tively small but clearly defined punctures.  Sewlellwm minute. 
Elytra very strongly convex, punctures rather smaller than on
