The infuscate blotches on the elytra are variable ; in a well- 
marked specimen they consist of a large transversely quadrate or 
somewhat triangular common blotch at the base, a broad more or 
less straight median fascia and a large common apical blotch. In 
some examples the median fascia is dilated forward near the 
lateral margin, in others the median fascia is interrupted at the 
suture, and in others it does not reach the lateral margins. In 
some examples the dark markings on the elytra are nearly black 
and in others very little darker than the rest of the surface. The 
elytra of very dark examples are nearly black with a narrow pale 
fascia from either shoulder obliquely running towards the suture, 
and a pale spot on each elytron near the apex.

T. Koebelet, sp. nov. Precedenti (7. Sharp?) valde affinis; anten- 
narum articulo 5° quam 4% 6"* que haud perspicue longiori ; 
prothoracis lateribus manifeste minus arcuatis; elytris 
(striis lateralibus exceptis) haud striatis, puncturis in serie- 
bus multo minus crebre dispositis. Long., 14 1.; lat., = 1. 
In addition to the structural characters set forth above this 
species differs from the preceding in the markings of its elytra, 
the:e being on each elytron a longitudinal prolongation of the 
median dark mark connecting the latter with the hind external 
corner of the basal blotch; this is not the case with any variety 
that I have seen of 7’ Sharpi.

T. cairnsensis, sp. nov. 7. Sharpi valde affinis; prothorace 
antice nullo modo angustato, minus crebre punctulato, 
lateribus fere rectis, elytris ut 7’. Koebeled. Long., 1°; 1; 
lat., 4 1. (vix). 
Larger and of slightly wider build than 7. Sharpi and with a 
very differently shaped prothorax. The markings differ in the 
basal and apical blotches of the elytra being very small, but as I 
have only seen a single example of this insect it is possible that 
this may be a mere variation.
