Scutellerin* a«f/ Graphosoininje. 31 



two close together (sometimes only one) on the slight central 

 keel about one third before apex. The pronotum also pos- 

 sesses two small black spots situate a little before anterior 

 margin. 



Coleotichus horealis, sp. n. 



Ochraceous, thickly and coarsely punctate ; margins of 

 the head and pronotum stramineous, inwardly demarcated 

 with metallic green punctures on the head, very obscurely 

 so and only near anterior margin of the pronotum. Scu- 

 tellum with a distinct levigate stramineous spot near each 

 basal angle, and with a few very small discal black spots, 

 situate two close together on each side before middle and two, 

 also close together, on central median line about one third 

 before apex. Corium with a dark metallic olivaceous sub- 

 costal margin. Body beneath, legs, and antenna pale 

 ochraceous. Pronotum with two small black spots a little 

 before anterior margin. 



Long. 17-19 millim. ; exp. pronot. angle 10 millira.

This species is closely allied to the Australian C. excellens, 

 Walk., both in size and markings. It is separated, however, 

 by the diflferent coloration — ochraceous, not ferruginous — by 

 the broader, more gibbous, and posteriorly less attenuated 

 body, uniform colour of the sternum, &c. This is the most 

 northern species of the genus yet described. 



Coleotichus fuscus.

Damelia, gen. nov. 



Body short, about one and a half times as long as broad, 

 gibbous, deflexed towards head and apex of abdomen. Head 

 almost twice as broad as long, lateral margins moderately 

 sinuated, apex rounded ; antennae of five joints, second and 

 third joints almost equal in length. Pronotum with the 

 anterior margin moderately concave, lateral margins obliquely 

 convex and laminate, basal margin in front of scutellum 

 nearly straight. Scutellum with a large but faint circular 

 impression on each side near base. Sternum with a central 

 canal, the edges of which are raised. 



I have placed this genus near Steganocerus.
