I cannot identify this satisfactorily; 1 think two forms are con- 

 fused. The nym])hs in this i^enus art- in all stages very similar 

 to the adults.

Paradorydiiiiu Kirkaldy, upi, Ent.^m. XXX 1\' 339. 



1. moialus sp. nov. 



Testaceous, or more or less rosy, or more or less tinged with 

 ferruginous, veins paler. Head, pronotum and scutellum ob- 

 scurely and smudgily flecked with blackish brown, t'he punc- 

 tures being darkish. Sterna and sterniles usually more or less 

 tinged with pin'kis'h. Elongate fusiform; head about as long as 

 nota and tegmina together, gradually converging towards apex 

 which is angularly rounded; sides acutely carinate for at least 

 the anterior two thirds- Head, pronotum and scutellum finely 

 a.nd closely jiunctured, clavus lightly punctured. Vertex, pro- 

 notum and scutellum longitudinally carinate. Frons very 

 strongly carinate. a little swollen near the clypeus. Pronotum 

 with two sublateral keels on each side, a little more obsolescent 

 than the median one. basal margin sliglitlv angulatelv emargin- 

 ate. Tegmina longer than abdomen. 



Length: 10-]- (male); 12 female) mill; width about ,^ mill. 



Hab: Queensland, Cairns (viii), X'elson (vii), Kuranda (viii.) 



The liead as seen in profile is much longer and flatter than in 

 any other species known to me- The males are smaller than 

 the other sex, and t'he vertex inclines a little to be spatidate 

 apically. 



* Kirby savs that C. mnrg^'naius and hrunnti4s do not belons to Cefihnlehis; the de- 

 scriptioti of the latter, however, at least, agrees verv well with forms of Cefhahlus 

 before me.
