? . Coarsely and closely punctured ; head very broad, tlie 

 eyes distinctly divergent towards the clypens ; cheeks nearly 

 as broad as the eyes. Antennse inserted rather low down, 

 neaily three times as far from tiie anterioi- ocellus as from 

 the base of tlie clypeus, second joint of the flagellum a little 

 longer than tlie third. First abdominal segment distinctly 

 brtinder than long; pygidial area coarsely but rather sparsely 

 piiiii-tured, elongate-ovate, rather broadly truncate at the apex. 

 Al)doniinal segments very strongly constricted, the ventral 

 siirt'ace almost smooth. First recurrent nervure received a 

 little before the middle of the tiecond cubital cell, second 

 close to the base of the third cubital cell.

Tlie shape of the clypeus is reniarkable and quite different 

 from any other Australian species.
