from tliose of Tenerus ; the last three joints are expanded 

 and elongated, forming a flattened serrate club, which is 

 more than thr e times as long as the rest of the antennae, the 

 intermediate joints, constituting the funiculus, are very short; 

 some of them are difficult to distinguish in the first of the 

 two species. 



Teneromimus vitticollis, sp. n. 



Pronotum, except along each side and a band along the 

 middle, ochreous red ; elytra entirely ochreous red ; all the 

 rest of the body, including the appendages, quite black. 

 Upper surface, except on the black parts, covered with a 

 rather dense reddish pubescence ; head and prothorax 

 minutely and very densely punctulate; elytra appearing to 

 be impunctate, feebly convex, and along the disk, especially 

 posteriorly, nearly flat, each with a few very faint costse; 

 ventral surface nitid, sparsely furnished with hairs. 



Length 7 mm.; breadth 2 mm. 



Hab. Melbourne in Australia. One example only in the 

 British Museum. 



Teneromimus humeralis, sp. n. 



Head, prothorax, and elytra reddish testaceous, the latter 

 moderately convex, long, widening posteriorly, blackish at 

 the apex, each also with a distinct black, nitid spot extending 

 back a little way from the shoulder ; meso- and metatliorax, 

 abdomen, legs, and antennas black. Upper surface not very 

 densely pubescent ; head very finely and densely punctulate, 

 the prothorax still more minutely but somewhat less acutely 

 punctulate. 



Length 85 mm. ; breadth at base of elytra 2 mm., at two- 

 thirds of their length from the base 3 mm. 



Hab. Alu Island, ISolomon Archipelago (CM. Woodford). 



The single example of this species was sent among the 

 unnamed Teneri to Herr Schenkling, and was returned 

 labelled Tenerus n. sp. He must have overlooked the 

 structure of the antenuse. 



Epiphlgeus, Spin. 



This genus, rid of some of its species, would be a very 

 well marked one, the sinuation or emargination of the eyes 

 being very distinct and placed on the inner side at a good 

 distance above the point of insertion of the antennae. The 

 antennas are correctly described by Herr Schenkling as 

 having 11 joints, but he has included in the genus a certain
