BY THE REV. R. L. KING, B.A. 21 



The thorax is widest close to the head, and then contracts 

 very gradually to about f of its length ; the remaining third 

 being nearly cylindrical. The fasciae of the elytra are broad and 

 almost united at the suture. The sides of the elytra are some- 

 what rounded. 



This species is near the preceding, but the thorax is longer. 



Sp. 40. A. crassus, 

 Fusco-brunneus, parum crebre punctatus hirsute-pubescens ; 

 antennis ferrugineis ; thorace transverse obcordato, ad 

 basin ferrugiueo ; elytris maculis duabus flavis, posterioribus 

 obliquis. 

 Long. .14. 



Gawler ; Mrs. Kreusler. 

 This description applies to one of two specimens, the head 

 and thorax of which is blackish brown, and the maculae on the 

 shoulders are somewhat large. In the second specimen the head 

 and thorax are ferrugineous, and the flavous spots cover nearly 

 the whole elytra, and are widely connected at the suture. It 

 is one of the many species which we owe to the industry of Mrs. 

 Kreusler of Gawler. It comes near the description of A. crassipes. 



Division III. 

 Group XI. 

 Thorax elongated, elytra cylindrico-elongated. 



Sp. 41. A. nigricollis. 

 Parce setosus punctulatus niger ; thorace antice rotuudato 

 bisinuato ; elytris maculis flavescentibus 2*^"^ pone humeros 

 et 2''"^ pone medium, pedibus ferrugineis. 

 Long. .10. 



Gawler ; Mrs. Kreusler. 

 The elytra are elongated ; the suture is somewhat prominent ; 

 the spots behind the shoulder are sub-triangular> those behind 

 the middle almost unite to form a fascia. 



The species belongs to the first division of this group, having 

 the sides of the thorax bisinuate.
