There is a single specimen in tlie South Australian Museum. 

 I do not know where it was taken. 



L. modestus, sp. nov. Ovatus ; supra glaher ; sat nitidus ; rufo- 

 piceus, antennis, palpis, pedibus, eljtris, abdominequa 

 rufis ; prothoracis lateribus capillis pallidis fimbriatis ; 

 subtus cinereo-pilosus ; cljpeo (? alterutrius sexus solum) 

 antice rotundato, sutura arcuata fortiter impressa, illo et 

 capite crasse rugatis, vix evidenter punctatis ; prothorace 

 obscure canaliculato sparsim subtiliter, elytris crebrius 

 fortiter, pjgidio propygidioque obscure crasse, punctatis ;. 

 striis geminatis elytris parum evidenter impressis ; propy- 

 gidio sat magno ; tibiis anticis apice longitudinaliter 

 fortiter productis, margine externo vix dentato ; antennis- 

 novies articulatis ; tarsorum posticorum articulo primo 

 secundo sat longiore. Long., 4i mm. 

 The position of this little species in the genus should be, I 

 think, near the preceding (Z. simplex'). It is no doubt in many- 

 respects allied to the West Australian L. rubefactus, Macl., but 

 differs in the absence of a carina from the pygidium, the 

 arcuate clypeal suture, sculpture of the head, &c., &c. 



There is a single specimen in the South Australian Museum. 

 i. dispar, sp. nov. Late ovatus ; sat nitidus ; niger ; antennis 

 (? clavo excepto), palpisque testaceis ; elytris (marginibu& 

 late obscure infuscatis exceptis) tibiis anticis et tarsis 

 omnibus rufescentibus ; capite prothoraceque nigro pilosis; 

 subtus cinereo-pilosus ; clypeo (? alterutrius sexus solum) 

 antice rotundato, marginibus sat fortiter reflexis ; capite 

 crebre sat fortiter ; prothorace duplo (subtilius et fortiter), 

 elytris pygidio propygidioque fortiter sat crebre, punc- 

 tatis ; striis geminatis evidenter impressis ; pygidio basi 

 carinato, utrinque sat fortiter sulcato ; elytris propygidii 

 partem majorem tegentibus ; tibiis anticis (? alterutrius 

 sexus solum) externe sat fortiter tridentatis ; tarsorum 

 posticorum articulo 1° 2^ vix breviori ; antennis 9 articu- 

 latis. Long., 10 mm. 

 This species is evidently allied to picipennis, Germ., from 

 which the black pilosity of its head and thorax, the complete 

 absence of a thoracic channel, larger size, different colour, and 

 different thoracic puncturation easily distinguish it. 



There is a single specimen in the South xlustralian Museum, 

 but the locality of its capture is not known. 

 L. agrestis, sp. nov. Ovatus, minus nitidus ; niger, antennis 

 (clava excepta), palpis, pedibus anticis, elytris (marginibus 

 anguste infiiscatis exceptis), pygidio et propygidio rufis; 

 pedibus posticis piceis ; supra glaber, prothorace antice et 

 ad latera capillis longis pallidis sparsis fimbriate, postice
