Tasmania: Hobart (Walker). One example. 
The specimen taken by Mr. Walker agrees very well 
with Pascoe’stype. The latter is ticked Australia with- 
out any more precise indication of locality. In a speci- 
men from South-west Australia, in the British Museum 
collection, the testaceous bands of the elytra are not of 
uniform width throughout; they cover the whole width 
of the elytra at the base, and become gradually narrower 
as they pass backwards to end just before the apex. In 
another specimen the elytra are almost entirely fulvo- 
testaceous. But in other respects both of these speci- 
mens agree very well with the form described by Pascoe.
