males, deficient of antenne, part of legs, and also the cerci and 
styles. They resemble A. Hastii in the texture of the dorsal sur- 
face, but are much smaller, less bulky, and the markings quite 
different. The species scarcely fits into the genus, having appar- 
ently some affinities with Dasyposoma castanea, Sauss., but is 
placed here till an opportunity offers to compare specimens of 
both, and better examples obtained.

Polyzosteria cuprea, Sauss. Mel. Orth., IL, 5. 
This was placed by me through misconception under Platyzos- 
teria, but is recorded and cancelled by Saussure as synonymous 
with PoLyzOSTERIA MACULATA, Brunner, already described. 
Polyzosteria bicolor, Sauss. (ibd IL., 79; II., 112)—Piaryzos- 
TERIA LIGATA, Br. 
A variety (!) is also described with the margins of the third 
thoracic segment wholly yellow from ‘‘ New Holland.” 
Polyzosteria biglumis, Sauss. (tbid)—= PLATYZOSTERIA SUBAPTERA, 
Br. 
Polyzosteria consobrina, Sauss. (2b.)==PLATYZOSTERIA ATRATA, 
Erichs. 
Polyzosteria analis, Sauss. (ib.)=PLATYZOSTERIA MELANARIA, 
Erichs. 
Polyzosteria pulchella, Sauss. (7b.)=POLYZOSTERIA LIMBATA, 
Burm. 
The changes are indicated by Saussure himself. 
PoLyzosTERIA MITcHELLI, Angas (Sauss., Melb. Orth., II., 106). 
A full description is given of this species (figured but not 
described by Angas), but evidently of spirit specimens, apt to be 
distorted and always discolored. 
In regard to another species, an observation is made by the 
same author assigning one of the older names to synonymy, on 
account of insufficient description, and with which I also agree,
