Selenurus DEPRESSICOLLIS, Macl. {IcMlivurus). Trans, 

 Ent., N.S. Wales, II, p. 264 ; Blackk, T. R. S., S.A., 

 1892, p. 221 ; var. luteopidus, Fairm., 1877, p. 167, 

 Jouru. Mus., Godeff., 1879, p. 99. {Fig. 156.)* 



The apical joint of the antennae of the type of depressi- 

 collis is dark terminally, the spot on the prothorax is a 

 stain only, although described as " a broad black band." 

 Luteopictus is a form (the commoner of the two in my 

 experience), in which the prothorax is immaculate. 



Of three specimens now before me, two agree exactly 

 with the description of luteopictas ; the other agrees exactly 

 in colour, but has the elytra much less coarsely sculptured, 

 and the elevated line on each scarcely traceable.

Selenurus annulatus, Macl, P. L. S., N.S.W., 1887, 

 p. 238. {Fig. 155.) 

 In a specimen from Cairns the dark basal and subapical 

 markings of the elytra are disconnected, and the spot on 

 the prothorax is small and of irregular shape ; in two others 

 (sexes) from Kuranda, the dark elytral markings are con- 

 nected along the sides, and the prothoracic spot is almost a 

 perfect semicircle, the convex side of which faces the apex.
