I do not know this species, laconically described from Sydney. 



I agree with Van Duzee that his DeltoccpJialns osborui belongs 

 to this genus and not to Phrynoniorl^hns. as is indeed apparently 

 the case with all the species placed by Osl)oru & Ball in Coui- 

 m ell us. 



Phryno]:)hyes. 



Phrynoiiiorpliits fatigaiidiis cannot be placed in Phryiioinorphus 

 as restricted, it is nearer Phryiiophycs. The elongate frons, ver- 

 tex longer than wide and acuteangled apically. remove it from 

 Phrynouiorphus (even sens. lot.), while the venation is too sim- 

 ple iovD eh oce phaliis . It has the characters somewhat of Stirclliis 

 but is very dift'erent from .S". ciirtisii, the only s;)ecies I have for 

 examination ; mcreover Stirclliis seems to merge gradually into 

 DeltoccpJialns.
