A very slender and elongate species, not very close to any 
other known to me. Resembling in form aud structure C. 
nigronotata, Bohem.; its colours and markings are more like 
those of australis, Boisd. (though differing considerably in the 
black head, yellow scutellum, yellow sterna, piceous tibiz and 
tarsi, Xc.).

The colours and markings of this species are very different 
from those of the other described Australian Copidite. The 
conspicuous yellow and black variegation of its antennz is very 
noticeable. It is, perhaps, nearest structurally to the preceding 
(C. baldiensis), but differs inter alia by its head strongly canalicu- 
late in the hinder part, its shorter and wider prothorax, the more 
crowded and asperate puncturation of its elytra, &c.
