5G Mr. F. P. Paseoe on Additions to 



oculorum currentes. Omli rotundati, subtenuiter granulati. 

 Seapus ad partem posteriorem oculi attingens ; funiculus articulis 

 duobus basalibus longioribus, sequalibus, coeteris gradatim bre- 

 vioribus, ultimo obconico : clava ovalis, distincta. Prothora.v 

 oblongus, lobis oculaiibus nullis. Scutelhim distinctum. Elytra 

 convexa, elongato-cordata, prothorace multolatiora, basi truncata, 

 humeris paulo obliquis. Pectus antice late emarginatum. Coxa? 

 anticae contiguoe ; femora in medio incrassata, mutica ; tibice 

 flexuosae, anticae longiores ; tarsi articido tertio late bilobo. 

 Metasternum elongatum. Abdomen segmentis duobus basalibus 

 ampliatis. 



The long scape and form of the rostrum are characters indi- 

 cating an affinity with the Cylindrorhininas ; but the normal 

 length of the metasternum would, in strict accordance with 

 Lacordaire's system, rather point to a connexion near the 

 Hylobiinaj. It will, however, I think, be more natural to 

 place it with the former. 



Lycosura bisjrinosa. PI. I. fig. 9. 



L. ferrugiuea, squamis griseis, plurimis piliformibus, irregulariter 

 vestita ; rostro capite parum longiore, modice arcuato ; prothorace 

 latitudine manifeste longiore, basi apiceque fere sequali, lateribus 

 rotundato, dorso lineis duabus albescentibus ornato ; elytris basi 

 prothoracis multo latioribus, sulcato-punetatis, interstitiis con- 

 vexis, tertio postiee in spinam acutam borizontalera producto, apici- 

 bus perparnm divergeutibus, subacuminatis, fascia arcuata pone 

 medium maculaque prope apicem, e squamis minus condensatis 

 formatis, notatis. Long. 5 lin. 



Hob. Albany. 



Syagrius. 



Rostrum modice elongatum, arcuatum ; scrobes praemedianas, obliquas, 

 infra rostrum currentes. Oeidi ovales, grosse granulati. Seapus 

 oculum haud attingens ; funiculus 7-articulatus, articulis extus 

 gradatim crassioribus. Prothora.v lateribus rotundatus, basi 

 rectus ; lobis ocularibus nullis. Scutellum invisum. Elytra 

 cylindrica, prothorace haud latiora. Coxce posticse rotundataa ; 

 femora mutica, antica majora ; tibia? flexuosas, muticse ; tarsi 

 breves, latiusculi ; unc/idculi liberi. Abdomen segmentis duobus 

 basalibus ampliatis, sutura prima distincta. 



This curious Curculionid is very similar to certain species 

 of Anchonus ; but, viewed geographically, it is doubtless allied 

 to the rare genus Steremntus, from which it is at once dif- 

 ferentiated by its rounded, not transverse, posterior coxae, and 

 elytra not broader than the prothorax. I have seen but a 

 single example, sent to me by Mr. French, of the Melbourne 

 Botanic Garden.
