A small specimen of tins species in Herr Felsche's 

 collection is from Rockhampton and another from Mackay. 



This species has almost the same shape as P. Urichsoni, 

 and the coloration of P. aoigiosta. The cephalic horn is 

 very short, tapering but not acuminate, and placed at a 

 distance from the clypeal margin. The pubescent depres- 

 sion at the front of the pronotum is very slight, not wide, 

 and its hind margin is not sharply defined. The elytra 

 are rather broad, the striae nearly equidistant and the 

 subsutural and humeral interstices irregularly, but not 

 very strongly, punctured, and the intervening interstices 

 not or scarcely punctured. The hind tarsi are very long, 

 each joint having at its extremity a circlet of long out- 

 standing bristles, and the claws are not quite as small as 

 in P. angusta and Ericlisoni. 



Phaenognatha scutellata, sp. n. 



Rufo-castanea, scutello fere nigro elytrisque testaceis, apicibus 

 vage infuscatis, capite corporeque subtus sat longe fulvo-hirtis ; 

 capite omnino rugoso, lato, oculis parvis, sat distantibus, clypeo 

 prominente, cornu a margine remoto, brevi, angusto ; prothorace 

 quam elytris vix latiore, lateribus irregulariter punctate, medio fere 

 laevi, antice paulo retuso et pubescente ; elytris profunde striatis, 

 striis vage punctatis, interstitiis aequalibus, subsuturali et humerali 

 irregulariter punctatis ; tarsis posticis quam tibiis duplo longioribus, 

 articulis extremitate setis longis instructis, unguibus gracilibus, 

 longitudine vix ad articuli ultimi dimidium aequalibus.
