CyTTALIA LONGIROSTRIS, 11. Sp. 



Reddish-testaceous ; mider-surface (apex of abdomen 

 diluted with red), head, rostrum, scutellum, and club black. 

 Clothing as in the preceding species, except that on the 

 under-surface it is not quite so dense, and that the elytral 

 setae are paler and more erect. 



Iinstrum thin, feebly curved, considerably longer than 

 prothorax. Scape as long as funicle and club combined. 

 Elytra with distinct punctures, but which are considerably 

 narrower than the interstices; these almost impunctate. An- 

 terior femnra acutely dentate. Length 3-3| mm.

 (R. Helms), vicinity of Jenolan Caves (J. C. Wiburd). 



The rostrum is unusually long and thin, and this with 

 the black colour of the same will readily distinguish the 

 species from all those previously described. 



CyTTALIA PICEOSETOSA, 11. Sp. 



Reddish-testaceous, in places stained with piceous or 

 black. Under-surface, sides of prothorax, and about eyes 

 with soft white scales irregularly distributed ; upper-surface 

 with sparse pubescence; the prothorax and elytra with rather 

 long, thin, dark, sparse setse. 



Rosfrum feebly curved, distinctly longer than prothorax. 

 Scape almost as long as funicle and club combined. Elytra 

 with fairly large punctures in striae, interstices almost im- 

 punctate. AwterioY . femora acutely dentate. Length, 3 mm. 



Hah. — Tasmania: Huon River (A. M. Lea). 



The elytral setae are sparser, darker, and much less dis- 

 tinct than ill any other species known to me. The head and 

 prothorax are moderately dark, the dark parts of the elytra 

 are now^here sharply defined, but form a large irregular tri- 

 angle about the scutellum, thence an irregular patch ex- 

 tends to beyond the middle, dilating to the sides; the should- 

 ers are not dark ; the metasternum is almost black, and the 

 two basal segments of abdomen are piceous; the club is 

 moderately dark. I have seen but one specimen. 



Cyttalia oleari^, n. sp. 



Reddish-testaceous, elytra, abdomen, and appendages 

 almost flavous, club black. Sterna with subsetose whitish 

 scales, elsewhere with moderately dense whitish pubescence, 

 prothorax with transverse decumbent set«, elytra with regu- 

 lar rows of semi-decumbent setae. 



Rostrum in one sex the length of prothorax, in the other 

 distinctly longer, feebly curved. Scape almost as long as 

 funicle and club combined. Elytra with fairly large but
