mentis abdominis utrinque albo-punctatis, pedibusque viridi- 
bus. 
Long. lin. 23, lat. lin. 1. 
The above species was taken at Moriatta. 
Sp. 35. Ethon eneicolle, Hope. 
/Enescens, thorace viridi-zeneo, foveis dorsalibus albidis binis 
impresso, lateribus concoloribus, elytris nigricantibus, albo-

abdominis utrinque albo-punctatis, pedibusque viridi-zeneis. 
Long. lin. 23, lat. lin. 1. 
The above species I received from Adelaide. 
Sp. 36. EHthon Gould, Hope. 
/Eneum, thorace cupreo-eneo, fortissimé punctato, lateribus 
externé linea elevaté ened conspicuis, elytris iridescentibus, 
zeneis, colore violaceo sparsim aspersis, maculis duabus 
obscuris post scutelium positis; corpore infra eneo, punc- 
tato, pedibus concoloribus. 
Long. lin. 4, Jat. lin. 14. 
The above species is from Port Essington, and is named after 
Mr. Gould the Ornithologist to whom it was transmitted. 
Sp. 37. Stigmodera Stricklandi, Hope. 
Flava, thorace olivaceo-zneo, marginibus croceis, elytris atro- 
violaceis, parte dimidiataé anteriori flavA, macula violacea in 
singulo ad latera posita, fascidque flava ad apicem binisque 
punctis rubro-miniatis in angulo apicis locatis; corpore infra 
viride, ultimis abdominis segmentis croceo colore inquinatis. 
Long. lin. 10, lat. lin, 43. 
Caput anticé zneum, linea media violacea impressé notatum. 
Thorax olivaceo-zneus, lateribus externis croceis, lined 
media longitudinali elevata distincta. Elytra flava, maculis 
violaceis in medio disci positis, fasciisque binis latis posticis 
concoloribus, apicibus duobus punctis miniatis insignitis. 
Corpus infra virescens, segmentis abdominis croceis, posticé 
viridi colore inquinatis, pedibusque concoloribus. 
The above insect I received from Moriatta; it greatly resembles 
Stigmodera Mitchell from the Swan River, and by some might 
be thought a variety of it; in the absence of the impressed fovez 
of the thorax and in various other minor points it may readily be 
distinguished. It is named after the well known Ornithologist 
Mr. Strickland.
