being neither lobed nor strongly sulcate at the base), this species 
nevertheless seems less aberrant in Z’elmatophilus than they do, 
especially in respect of its less coarsely granulated eyes [these 
organs in the preceding are far more coarsely granulated than in 
European Telmatophili (e.g., LT. caricis, Oliv.)] and its tarsi of 
which the basal three joints are (as in 7’. caricis) a little longer 
and less closely packed together than in 7. Sharpi, &e. It may 
be noted that none of the above species can be placed in the 
Australian genus Cnecost which Mr. Pascoe associated with 
Lelmatophilus, and from which inter alia they differ widely in 
the structure of their palpi.

LAMELLICORNES. 
EUPCECILA. 
E. balteata, Vollenh. I have received from Mr. French 
examples which seem to agree well with the description and 
figure of this species. Mr. French reports them as taken in N. 
Queensland. It should be noted that the present insect does not 
appertain to Hupecila as limited by Dr. Kraatz, but is I think 
clearly congeneric with Schizorhina atripennis, Macl., which Dr. 
Kraatz somewhat hesitatingly assigns to Dilochrosis. 
EUCNEMID. 
FORNAX. 
Lf. coloratus, sp. nov. Sat nitidus ; rufus, antennis (basi excepta) 
capite postice elytrisque (fascia lata postmediana excepta) 
nigris ; pube brevi (hac in prothorace aurea in elytris nigra) 
densim vestitus ; capite sat crebre (prothorace minus crebre, 
elytris sparsim) minus fortiter punctulatis; capite inter 
oculos subplanato in parte mediana leviter impresso, haud 
manifeste carinato; antennis quam prothorax longioribus, 
articulo 3° quam 2" plus quam duplo (quam 4% paullo) 
longiori ; prothorace sat transverso, antice sat angustato, 
angulis posticis (superne visis) sat acutis, basi 4-impressa ; 
elytris in partibus anticis duabus parum (apicem versus magis 
fortiter) angustatis, sat evidenter iridescentibus, vix mani- 
feste (stria subsuturali excepta) striatis. Long., 6 1.; lat.,

Easily recognisable by its nitid, black, more or less iridescent 
elytra traversed immediately behind the middle by a broad 
testaceous red fascia. In M. de Bonvouloir’s tabulation of 
Fornax [ Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. (4) X. part supp.] this fine species 
would find its place somewhere in the neighborhood of the 
Malayan /. mirabilis, Bonv., from which it differs inter alia by
