406 Mr. G. C. Champion on the Tenebrionidex 
which become more distinct towards the sides and apex, the third, 
fifth, and seventh each with three or four setiferous impressions, 
the humeri very obtuse. Length 8?—9j, breadth 3;—3} mm. 
Hab. Tasmania—Hobart, Launceston, and Franklin. 
Four specimens have been sent to me by Mr. Walker, 
and others are contained in Mr. F. Bates’s collection, the 
latter bearing the name I have adopted. LB. tuberculifera 
has very much the facies of Adeliwm commodum, Pasc., 
an insect occurring in the same localities ; but it may be 
easily known from that insect by the prominent and 
more rounded eyes, the imperfectly defined epistoma, the 
tuberculate elytra, ete. 
CHALCOPTERUS. 
Chalcopterus, Blessig, Horee Ent. Ross., 1., 1, p. 103 
(1861); Blackburn, Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W. (2), 
vil, p. 415 (1892), and viii., pp. 53—56 (1893). 
Chalcopterus longipennis. 
Amarygmus longipennis, Hope, Proc. Ent. Soc. Lond., 
1842, p. 79; Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond., 1845, p. 109 
(? 2ec Blackburn). 
Hab. W. Australia—Fremantle. 
One specimen, also another in the British Museum-set, 
agreeing with Hope’s type. The Rev. IT’. Blackburn in 
his description of this species (Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W. 
(2) vii, p. 456) states that the tarsi are clothed with 
black hairs beneath ; in the insect before me the hairs are 
fulvous, but as I did not examine the tarsi of Hope’s 
type, the identification with his C. longipennis is perhaps 
not quite certain. 
Chalcopterus howittr. 
Amarygmus howitti, Pasc., Ann. and Mae. Nat. Hist. 
(4), ii., p. 348. 
Chalcopterus cwpripennis, Blackb., Proc. Linn. Soe. 
N.S.W. (2), vi., p. 422 (nec Hope). 
Hab. Tasmania—Hobart. 
Not hitherto recorded, I believe, from Tasmania. It 
is a common species in Southern Australia.
