176 Mr. Arthur M. Lea's Revision of the 



Head and antennae much as in mucronatus. Elytra densely and 

 moderately coarsely punctate, punctures smaller at base and apex 

 than elsewhere ; sides and suture moderately (towards apex rather 

 strongly) thickened and sides feebly channelled. Front legs with 

 strongly produced and obtusely pointed trochanters ; femora strongly 

 curved and with a large but obtuse subbasal tooth. 



Length 3 ( $ 3|) mm. 



9 . Differs in having the front legs simple and (except the coxae) 

 almost entirely dark, and the hind tibiae each with a long fixed spur 

 rather more than half the length of the tarsus.

Allied to australis and the two preceding species, but at 

 once distinguished by the long spur to the hind tibiae of 

 the female and the dentate front femora of the male. 

 Parts of the coxae and trochanters are obscurely diluted 

 with red. Seen from the sides the margins of the elytra 

 of the female appear rather strongly arched at the middle, 

 from above from certain directions they are reminiscent of 

 those of the female of mucronaius, but this is more apparent 

 than real, whilst the apex is quite simply rounded. 



One male (probably immature) has part of the suture 

 and sides of elytra and more of the legs and antennae 

 obscurely pallid. 



Hypattalus calcaratus, n. sp. 



(J . Black ; elytra deep bluish-green ; prothorax reddish-flavous ; 

 three basal joints of antennae and parts of legs obscurely diluted 

 with red. 



Head and antennae much as in mucronaius except that the eyes 

 are larger and antennae somewhat thicker. Elytra densely and 

 moderately coarsely punctate, the punctures not much finer at base 

 and apex than elsewhere ; sides and suture very feebly thickened 

 and the sides very slightly channelled. Legs simple. 



Length If -2 mm. 



9 . Dififers in having the hind tibiae each terminated by a long 

 thin curved fixed spur, distinctly more than half the length of the 

 tarsus.
