414 Kev. II. S. Gorlmm on 



elytron just below the scutellum, and one outside this with 

 two near the suture on each form a curved longitudinal row, 

 and seem more persistent than the rest. The apex itself is 

 surrounded by a thin angular C-like mark, but this is usually 

 reduced to two points at its extremities. 



The antennre in this species are short for an Ilah/zia, not 

 being so long as would reach to the base of the thorax. 



Five specimens.

Orbicularis, convexus, fere impunctatus, sanguineo-rufus ; elytrorum 

 sutura ad basin late ad apieem tenuiter nigra, margine ab angulo 

 basali pone medium cum plagia siibmarginali, ante apieem desi-

Thi^ beautiful Chilocorus comes into Crotch's Section B, 

 with the " thorax reddish orange," but there is nothing like 

 it known to me. Both the type form and the variety were 

 found by Mr. Marshall feeding on scale-insects on the " Port 

 Jackson willow " in October 1899. 



Cyrtaulis sellata, sp. n. 



Orbicularis,, fere hemispha'rica, nigra, parum nitida, deiisius griseo- 

 pubescens ; capite prothoraceque subtilissime, eljtris disthicte 

 crebre puuetatis, his sanguincis, fascia transversa cum sutura in 

 tertia parte subapicali maculam nigram cruciformem praebente. 

 Thorax transversus, angulis anticis baud prominulis, obscure 

 rufescentibus, lateribus subrectis.

Almost hemispherical, slightly gibbous, the apex a little 

 retuse ; the general colour is pitchy black, the elytra being 

 of a fine blood-red with a cruciform marking, and the fascia 

 forming the arms is a rather broad common band, of which 

 the front angles on each side are cut off a little, so as to 

 make them appear to bend backwards ; this fascia is nearer 

 the apex than the base ; the sutural part of the cross does 

 not commence for one third from the base and the posterior
