grooves long, deep and sub-parallel, the interval rather broad. Capitu- 

 lum gi'eatly resembles that of the ^^ ; porose areas much longer than 

 broad, converging strongly in front ; hypostome dentition 4 j 4. Veyiter : 

 spiracle oval, hardly pointed dorsally. Legs : as in the (f. 



Nymph (Fig. 429) : Scutum : broader than long, about 0"2 x 0*25 mm.^ 

 cordate ; cervical grooves long, sub-parallel, well-marked. Capitulum : 

 much like that of the </, except that the dentition is 2 | 2. Legs: like 

 those of the adult, with trochantal spurs more distinct. 



Larva (Fig. 430) : Scutum: much broader than long, about 0'37 x 0*58 

 to 0"82 X 0"56 mm.\ rather deeply emarginate ; cervical grooves well- 

 marked and visible for the whole length of the scutum. Capitulum : 

 base twice as broad as long, with distinct, rather sharp, somewhat 

 outwardly directed cornua ; palps only slightly salient laterally, article 2 

 about equal in length to article 3, no dorsal spines, but a short retrograde 

 spur under article 3 ; hypostome dentition 2 | 2. Legs : coxal armature 

 normal ; no trochantal spurs ; tarsus III tapering rapidly to a rather

 1913; (N. 2114), 1 $ and 1 O, found crawling on collector's trousers, at 

 Brigaton Scrub, Burnett; (N. 2115), 1 cT, from Macropus giganteus,

 3 $ and 2 o, host (?) found at Eidsvold. All collected by Dr T. L.
