Comparing the figure and descriptions of Brunner, usually 
very exact, with Prof. McCoy’s (Prod. Zool. Vict., Dec. XII., 
plate 120; 1885) and the specimens in the Adelaide Museum it 
is apparent that both the latter represent the same species, and 
are distinct from the first, as shown by the detailed description 
below. Prof. McCoy’s description takes no cognizance of the 
venation of the elytra, nor the difference in the contour of the 
wings. His figures are excellent, however. 
EPHIPPITHYTA QUADRIGESIMAGUTTATA, sp. nov. 
(EZ. trigintiduogutta, McCoy, Prod. Zool. Vict., 120). 
Dull browinish-green, shining. Face, lateral lobes of pro- 
notum, and sides of meso- and meta-thorax with milk-white 
stripes. Occiput blackish. Antenne basal part green for two- 
fifths of entire length, remainder brown. Anterior part of 
pronotum and hind angles blackish to black, also the extremity 
of the shoulders of the elytra. Latter semipellucid, green, veins 
much raised, the costal field near apex blackish, and from about 
38 to 45 more or less intensely black guttz along the radial vein 
(9-11), the hindmargin (7-10), and the anterior branch of the 
ulnar vein (2-3). All the femora and tibiz are more or less 
marked with black at the extremities, as are also the tips of the 
spines. The hind tibiz have three broad blackish bands on the 
inner side, the terminal one extending to the tarsi.
