  In 
  the 
  British 
  Museum 
  besides 
  the 
  type, 
  are 
  two 
  females

  Qld., 
  R. 
  E. 
  Turner," 
  and 
  one 
  female 
  

   labelled 
  " 
  Sydney." 
  The 
  species 
  is 
  closely 
  alhed 
  with 
  

   dissimilis 
  Dodd 
  and 
  rubriijes 
  Dodd, 
  differing 
  from 
  both 
  

   in 
  having 
  a 
  sulcus 
  or 
  depression 
  on 
  either 
  side 
  of 
  the 
  median 
  

   groove 
  at 
  base 
  of 
  abdomen. 
  The 
  pedicel 
  is 
  shorter 
  than 
  

   the 
  first 
  funicle 
  joint; 
  the 
  legs 
  are 
  deep 
  red, 
  the 
  femora 
  

   dusky 
  ; 
  the 
  antennae 
  except 
  the 
  black 
  club 
  are 
  also

   red,

  The 
  Australian 
  species 
  of 
  Botlmopria 
  should 
  fall 
  here, 
  

   the 
  obscure 
  foveae 
  along 
  margins 
  of 
  scutellum 
  not 
  being 
  a 
  

   distinctive 
  character.

  This 
  species 
  should 
  fall 
  here 
  ; 
  the 
  abdomen 
  is 
  sub 
  truncate 
  

   at 
  apex; 
  the 
  stigmal 
  vein 
  is 
  quite 
  distinct. 
  I 
  have 
  seen 
  

   a 
  female 
  taken 
  at 
  Bundaberg, 
  Queensland, 
  1904 
  {R.
