some Australian (yurculionidge. 475 



is widely separated from Acalles and its allies, it probably 

 has little in common with E. castunea ; certainly its clothing 

 is very different. The type is evidently in perfect condition. 

 On the prothorax the scales are mostly fawn-coloured, but 

 ■with white scales forming a narrow median line, a sub- 

 triangular Hue on each side extending from the base to near 

 the middle, and an oblique line (not visible from above) on 

 each flank. On the elytra the white scales clothe most of 

 the surface. The fawn-coloured ones are more thickly com- 

 pacted together (almost fasciculate), and form an oblique 

 fascia from the middle of the second interstice to the 

 seventh, in front of same is an irregular patch, extending 

 from the second to the fifth, and more conspicuous about 

 the base of the third than elsewhere; towards the apex 

 there are a few feeble spots. The interstices are usually 

 slightly elevated beneath the darker scales. On the under 

 surface and legs the scales are almost entirely white ; on the 

 head the two colours are feebly mixed.
