-strongly transverse, apex about one-fourth less than base. Hlytra 
cordate ; rather strongly seriate-punctate, interstices not very 
wide, and very feebly convex. Length, 22 mm.; rostrum, 11 mm.; 
width, 11 mm.; variation in length, 2—23 mm. 
Hab.—Swan River, Bridgetown (on young Lucalypti ). 
The scales of the under-surface in all the specimens (eight) 
under examination are uniformly white, not at all tinged with 
green or other colour, as is so frequently the case; the size is 
variable, and the disposition and extent of the dark scales on the 
-elytra are very much so. The species to a certain extent agrees 
with the description of selligera (Pascoe), but the rostrum of 
‘that species is described as ‘‘ nigra.” 
CYDM#A NYMPHOIDES, 7. sp. 
Piceous ; elytra reddish-brown, rostrum brownish-red, antennz 
‘pale-red, legs slightly darker. Prothorax with coppery-yellow 
scales, feebly mixed with chocolate on the disc; elytra with pale 
scales, a few snowy ones about ‘suture, brownish scales towards 
apex and sides, and a moderately well-defined chocolate brown 
patch on each side towards base. 
Rostrum long and very thin, very feebly dilated from antennz 
‘toapex. Antenne as in preceding. Prothorax feebly transverse, 
apex about one-third less than base. lytra oblong-cordate, 
rather longer than is usual in the genus; feebly striate, inter- 
‘Stices narrow. Length, 23 mm.; rostrum, 1; width, 1} mm. 
Hab.—W.A.: Pinjarrah. 
The disposition of the scales on the elytra gives this species a 
strong resemblance to the pupe of many small bugs, especially of 
‘the family Lyemipz2.
