Hub. Queensland, 



A very distinct species, originally found by Mr, Masters 

 at Gayndah, 



Symphyletes torquatus. 



S. fuscus, pube plerumque fulvo-grisea dense tectus, supra maculia 

 fulvis minutis adspersus ; capite infra et pone oculos fulvo- 

 pubescente ; antennis {6) corpore sesquilongioribus, infra leviter 

 ciliatis ; prothorace latitudiiie vix longiore, tuberculis laterali- 

 bus distinctis ; scutello subscutiformi ; elytris sparse granulatis, 

 postice gradatim angustatis, plaga fusca arcuata, in medio fulvo- 

 notata, parte quarta basali ornatis, singulis basi tuberculis spini- 

 formibus circa octoin seriebus duabus — interiore quinque, exteriore 

 tribus — instructis, apice truncatis ; corpore infra pedibusque griseo- 

 pubescentibus, segmentis abdominis pilis fulvis fimbriatis. Long.

Hah. Queensland (Gayndah). 



In the male the anterior coxae are armed with a curved 

 spme, as in many other species of this large genus ; the 

 female is stouter, and the antennae are not quite so long. 

 This very distinct species may be placed after S. cinnamo- 

 meus, 



ACHRIOTTPA. 



(Xiphoninae.) 



Caput mediocre, inter antennas latum, excavatum. OcuU subdivisi, 

 grosse granulati, lobo inferiore rotundato. A7)tenn(B setaceae, 

 articulis quatuor ultimis aequalibus. Prothorax cylindricus, late- 

 raliter inermis. Elytra parallela, prothorace paulo latiora. Pedes 

 perbreves ; tarsi articulo ultimo vahdo. Pro- et mesosterna 

 simpHcia, 



An elongate, cylindrical form, with unusually short legs, 

 and slender setaceous antennae with the last joint not hooked 

 or curved at the tip. The pro- and mesosterna are as in 

 Symphyletesj to which genus it may for the present be ap- 

 proximated, in habit approaching such species as S. variolosux 

 and its allies.
