This is the dominant genus in Australia, and likely 

 to be much increased. (We have 3 species unnamed, which 

 are probably new, but not in a fit condition for description.) 

 The female specimens bear considerable resemblance to species 

 of the genus Trajjezites, Hiih ; but the male are easily distin- 

 guished by the stigma, which, although showing considerable 

 variation, is always present. This character separates it from 

 Trapezites.
