This may possibly be a new species, the head looks more 

 smooth, and the thorax narrower than in the specimens I 

 originally got from Port Denison. Mr. Masters only captured 

 one specimen. 



19. — Xanthophcea Chaudoiri. n. sp. 



Length 4 lines. 

 Pale red with the elytra still paler. The thorax is rather elon- 

 gate, very little broader in front than behind, and about the 

 middle, where it is a little widened, there is a setigerous puncture. 

 The median line is deeply marked. The elytra are striated, 

 with the striae of a dark hue, and closely punctured. 



I have placed this species under the genus XantJiopJicea, 

 because it answers to the description of that genus, but the 

 thorax in X. grandis Chaud. is more cordiform, and that insect has 

 altogether a more elongate look. I have named the species after 

 the founder of the genus, the Baron de Chaudoir. 



20. — Ctmindis ckassiceps. n. sp. 



Length 4 lines. 

 Of a deep black, with the exception of the antennse, palpi, 

 tibise, and tarsi. Head broad, large, convex, and entirely and closely 

 covered with longitudinal striolae. Thorax very little narrowed 

 behind, median line well marked, lateral margin furnished with 

 two setigerous punctures, — one about one-third of the length of 

 the thorax from the anterior angles, the other at the posterior 

 angles, — and upper surface marked with small punctures, and
