GG. Alternate interstices of elytra not or 



scarcely more elevated than the 



rest. i^orcata, Fab. 



FF. Sides of prothorax much less rugulose 



than in N. porcata, fasciata, &c. 



longicoUis, Blackb. 

 EE. Intermediate tibiae straight. 



semicostata, Blackb. 

 DD. Disc of prothorax closely and evenly punctured. 



crihricollis, Spin. 

 CO. Body above and legs clothed with close, erect, long 

 pilosity.* 

 D. Elytra wider at base than the prothorax. 



E. Elytra with strong widely separated carinas 

 behind the middle. hirta, Blackb. 



EE. Elytra with no distinctly cariniform inter- 

 stices. inco7ispicua, Blackb. 

 DD. Elytra narrower at base than the prothorax. 



constricta, Blackb. 

 BB. Apex of elytra mucronate. sjyinicorms, Blackb. 



AA. Species of great size. Titana, Thorns. 



IST.B. — Besides the above there is Sir W. Macleay's iV. Master si 

 (from Queensland), the description of which is not complete 

 enough to enable me to place it in the tabulation. It seems, 

 however, to be near my fasciata, but to have unicolorous elytra 

 and the prothorax " much longer than wide." 



CISSIBJE. 



CIS. 



C. cequalis, Blackb. I accidentally omitted to add to my des- 

 cription of this species (Trans., 1887, p. 268) the mention of the 

 fact that the insect is found in hard fungi on trees near Port 

 Lincoln.

 sat nitidus ; ferrugineus, mandibulis nigris, antennarum arti-

^'' Most species of the genus have a clothing of short senii-recumbent hairs 

 mingled with a few long and erect, but this is quite different from the long 

 close pilosity of the species included under " CC."
