 Krieger records this common Australian species from 

 Fiji. It is doubtless an imported species.

?. Basal portion of the clypeus shining and almost smooth ; the 

 apical portion (clypeolus) finely and closely punctured, almost 

 black. Eyes widely and shallowly emarginate on the inner margin* 

 separated from the mandibles by a distance equal to about twice 

 the breadth of the mandibles at their base. Face finely and irregu- 

 larly punctured, with a broad median longitudinal carina; raised 

 into a broadly V-shaped carina below the base of the antennae ; 

 the face shallowly concave on each side of the median carina. Front 

 very shallowly concave from the anterior ocellus to the base of the 

 antennae, smooth and shining. Thorax shining almost smooth, 

 the mesonotum very minutely punctured, parapsidal furrows 

 strongly developed ; scutellum with distinct marginal carinae from 

 the basal angles reaching to the middle of the lateral margins but 

 not to the apex; postscutellum shining; pleurae smooth and 

 shining, the longitudinal grooves on the mesopleurae less strongly 

 developed than in L. semipunctata. Median segment with lateral 

 and apical marginal carinae, and with two longitudinal carinae 

 near the middle running from the base to the apical carina, the two 

 median carinae more than twice as far from the lateral carinae as 

 from each other; the dorsal surface of the segment rugulose, the 

 apical slope oblique and almost smooth, the apical carina not
