Oblonga, convexa, nigra, tibiis elytrisque castaneis; liis rugu- 

 loso-punctatis, piibe adpressa sub-squamifornii sparse obtectis, 

 sutura, margine exteriori, ante medium dilatata, vittidisque non- 

 nullis nigris ; thorace sub-cordiformi, rugoso, f()veolato-})\nictato, 

 pube sub-squamiformi vestito. Long. 5 lin. 



Hab. Western Australia ; a single specimen in my cabinet 

 from Mr. Duboulay's collection. 



Head coarsely rugose, closely foveolate-punctate, sparingly 

 clothed with adpressed Avhitish hairs ; eyes sub-cuneiform, their 

 inner margin nearly straight ; antennae about two fifths the 

 length of the body. Thorax longer than broad, sub-cordiform, 

 flattened on the disk, rugose, foveolate-punctate, in each punc- 

 ture is inserted a single adpressed, sub-squamiform white hair. 

 Elytra much broader than the thorax, truncate at the base, 

 oblong-ovate, convex, coarsely punctured, the punctures, which 

 have each a single adpressed hair similar to those of the thorax, 

 arranged in stria; near the suture, placed irregularly on the disk ; 

 interspaces between the striie smooth, those on the outer disk 

 coarsely elevate-reticulate ; humeral callus thickened, prominent, 

 bounded within by a double row of punctures, the interspace 

 between which is raised and sub-costate. Body beneath clothed 

 with adpressed whitish hairs, pleuraa, tibite and tarsi castaneous. 

 Hinder thighs thickened, armed on the lower edge near the apex 

 with a row of small teeth. 



This remarkable insect, of which I know but a single speci- 

 men (probably a $ ), differs from the typical species, D. favi- 

 pennis, in having the spine on the lower edge of the hinder 

 femora replaced by a row of small teeth.

Fremina. Thorax subcordiformis, pube adpressa sparse vesti- 

 tus, elytris abbreviatis, apice divaricatis, femoribus posticis 

 inermibus. Long. 3-4 lin. 



The male of this species was alone known to Gerniar ; the 

 female, although long existing in our collections, has hitlierto 

 remained uncharacterized.
