of neio genera and species of Tenehrionidce. 361 
joint longest, 4 — 10 gradually a little shorter, subpyriform 
(8 to 10 subglobular), 11 not larger than 10, rounded. 
Long. 4 lin. 
Hab. — Nicol Bay (W. Australia). A single example 
captured by M. Duboulay. 
This species would seem, from description and figure, to 
approach E. erebea, Pascoe : but it is twice as large, and 
the elytral sculpture is different. 
Ectyche sculpturata, n. sp. 
Oblong-oval, black, opaque ; relatively broader, more 
depressed, and much more sparsely clothed above Avith 
hairs than the preceding : prothorax transverse, scarcely 
convex, sometimes faintly depressed down the median 
line, feebly emarginate in front, sides moderately rounded, 
cmargination of hind angles strong, and with an acute 
tooth at the centre ; finely and densely (as well as the 
head) cehulose-punctate, the punctures much smaller and 
more rounded than in the preceding : elytra truncate 
at base, shoulders rounded, humeral angle not at all 
dentiform, seriate-punctate, the punctures rather large, 
round, approximate ; intervals flat, at bottom minutely 
intricately rugulose, studded with very small, flattened 
tubercles, each having a small rounded puncture at their 
apex behind, the sutural and each alternate interval 
appearing brighter (less opaque) than the others : tibi« 
normal: underside, legs, antennte, and palpi, pitchy-brown, 
shining ; flanks of prothorax rather closely reticulate-pli- 
cate ; breasts sparsely pilose ; antennae rather long, stouter 
and depressed outwardly, strongly perfoliate; joints 8 — 10 
decidedly larger and broader, and a little rounded ; 1 1 
larger and longer than 10, strongly compressed, sides sub- 
jiarallel, apex slightly obliquely truncated. 
Long. 3 to 3^ lin. 
Hab. — Nicol Bay. Two examples by M. Duboulay. 
Ectyche tuber culipennis, n. sp. 
Oblong-ovate, black, subopaquc, pilose : head and pro- 
thorax punctiu'ed as in the preceding, but somewhat more 
confusedly so ; prothorax relatively narrower, much more 
convex, scarcely emarginate in front, sides well rounded, 
cmargination of hind angles less deep, and the central 
tooth less acute, than in the ])receding : elytra slightly 
sliining, base truncate, shoulders rounded, seriate-punctate,
