Hab. Eaglehawk Neck, S.E. Tasmania [Turner), February 

 1913. One female. 



Differs from jluviulis iu the proportion of the antennal 

 joints, tiie shape ot the head, tlie scul[)ture of the thorax 

 and median segment, the length of the terebra, iu colour, 

 and other details.

$. Xigra; mandibulis apice excepto, tegulis, pedibusque anticis 

 intermediisquo ferrugineis ; tibiis anticis intermediisque supra, 

 tibiis posticis macula basali, tarsis anticis, tarsis intermediis 

 articulis tribus basalibus, tarsis(iue posticis, basi apiceque ex- 

 ceptis, albis ; terebra, petiolo multo breviore, testacea ; valvulis 

 apice albidis, incrassatis ; alls byalinis, venis fuscis ; stigmate 

 ' pallido, fusco-margiiiato. 



Long. 14 mm.; terebra^ long, 2-5 mm. 



? . Head opaque, somewhat elongate, slightly swollen 

 behind the eyes, the hind margin distinctly carinate. Eyes 

 separated from the hind margin of the head by a distance 

 equal to about one-tiiird of their own length ; posterior 

 ocelli level with the summit of the eyes, twice as far from 

 each other as from the eyes ; cheeks very short, not half as 

 long as the first joint of the flagellum ; a longitudinal carina 

 between the antennse. Second joint of the flagellum more 

 than half as long again as the first, the third joint distinctly 

 longer than the first and second combined. Neck short ; 

 pronotum with a very short and small spine at each angle ; 

 mesonotura opaque, coriaceous, with two very short longi- 

 tudinal impressed lines from the anterior margin; scutellum 

 ■nith well-defined marginal carinee ; median segment rather 

 coarsely rugose-reticulate, with a rather indistinct median 

 carina ; hind coxae coriaceous. Hind metatarsus no longer 

 than tlie four apical tarsal joints combined, the basal third 

 black, the apical half of the fifth tarsal joint also black. 

 Terebra scarcely half as long as the petiole. 



Hab. Kalamunda, S.W. Australia [Turner), March 1914. 

 Four females. 



Closely allied to valvularis, Schlett., but differs in the 

 lesser development of the angles of the pronotum, in the 

 sculpture of the median segment, and in the shorter cheeks. 

 F. fuschncmus, Kiefi"., has the terebra distinctly longer, the 

 cheeks longer, and the sculpture of the thorax rather 

 stronger ; and F. valens, Kieft'., is a much larger insect, 

 more robust, with the sculpture of the median segment 

 tending to transverse striae and the coxje black.
