The affinity of this species is to G. Odeioalmii Castelnau ; it 

 differs from it chiefly in its darker and duller appearance, and 

 in having seven rows of distinct bat shallow punctures on each 

 elytron.

 The punctured striae on the elytra of this species are quite 

 apparent under a common lens, and in this respect it may be 

 readily distinguished from any species hitherto described, 



EuTOMA DlGGLESI.

 I am not certain of the habitat of this species. The only 

 specimen I have seen was sent from Brisbane by Mr. Diggles, 

 with a number of Coleoptera, many of which were not Queensland 

 insects. 



The four punctures on the elytra of this species are remarkable, 

 inasmuch as it is the first of the genus in which the number has 

 exceeded two. The punctures are very large, and are placed 

 much in the same way as in Carenum Bonellii. 



Two very remarkable insects may hex'e be noticed ; they are 

 probably of different and undescribed genera, but their very 

 imperfect state, both being without antennae or palpi, renders it 

 impossible to give their proper characters. Their elongated 

 form, however, and narrowly shouldered elytra seem to corres- 

 pond so closely with the species " elongatmn," upon which the
