Buckton’s figure of this species (pl. lvi. fig. 6a) has no 
relation to his S. luteus, which is really represented on that 
plate by fig. 5, ascribed to S. curvidens. The type of 
S. luteus is now in the British Museum. 
Seriorius insularis, sp. n. 
Head and pronotum black; body beneath and legs 
piceous; lateral areas of the sternum ochraceously pubes- 
cent ; tegmina subhyaline, wrinkled, the veins dark ochra- 
ceous, the bdse and nearly basal halves of costal and sub- 
costal areas black ; pronotum thickly finely punctate, finely 
and obscurely ochraceously pilose, Jateral processes hori- 
zontally produced, their obtuse apices a little recurved, 
posterior process not quite reaching tegminal apices; tegmina 
with the black areas distinctly punctate. 
Long., incl. tegm., 6mm.; exp. lat. pronot. process. 3 mm. 
Hab. Island New Britain. 
This species differs from all the other (Australian) species 
of the genus with which I am acquainted by the obtuse and 
somewhat straightly produced lateral pronotal processes. 
ASPASIANA, gen. Nov. 
Pronotum moderately convexly gibbous, the posterior 
process at base distinctly concavely raised above scutellum 
and then broadly compressed, with the lateral areas globose, 
before the posterior angle of the inner tegminal margin it is 
then suddenly narrowed, tricarinate, and convexly depressed 
and impinging on inner tegminal margin, the anterior lateral 
processes slender and acute, in the type directed outwardly 
and very slightly backwardly ; face much broader than long, 
the ocelli near base and closer to each other than to eyes, 
the posterior margin strongly excavate before the clypeus ; 
tegmina with five apical and two discoidal areas, the central 
apical vein considerably bent, the inner discoidal area small ; 
legs moderate in size, the tibia somewhat sulcate but not 
dilated. 
To be placed near the genus Sertorius, Stal.

This species stood under the Neotropical genus Antonaé,
