184 Mr. C. J. Gahan’s notes on the 
Though placed in the Catalogue of Gemminger and 
Harold as a variety of S. grammicus, Newm., this species 
is in reality one of the most distinct species of the 
genus. 
Head and prothorax rufous; elytra dark brown, each with three 
yellowish white lines, two of which mark the two dorsal cost, the 
third the raised outer margin. The inner costa runs almost quite 
parallel to the suture for its entire length, and ends just a little in 
front of the extreme apical point, where it is joined by the hinder 
extremity of a lateral raised line, which starts from the shoulder, 
and is of a brownish colour, scarcely different from the general 
tint of the elytra. The second dorsal costa runs nearly parallel to 
the first, and does not extend quite so far behind. 
This is the only species of the genus known to me in 
which the dorsal cost bear this relation to one another.

Hist., vol. v. (1840), p. 21. 
To this species I refer some examples taken by Mr. 
Walker at Launceston in Tasmania. In this | am 
guided by Newman’s description, and by the fact that 
they agree with examples from South Australia which 
were ticketed S. grammicus by Adam White. Two of the 
characters mentioned by Newman are distinctly shown, 
viz.: (1) the inner costa, towards the middle of its 
length, is deflected towards the suture, the second costa 
towards the lateral margin ; (2) the inner costa is shorter 
than the second. The sides of the prothorax are not 
fuscous, as described by Newman; while the three white 
lines of each elytron consist of the two inner coste, and 
the raised outer margin; both the sutural margin and 
the third (or lateral) raised line being scarcely dis- 
tinguishable in colour from the rest of the elytron. The 
antenne of the male do not quite reach to the apex of 
the elytra, while those of the female are stili shorter.
