Hah. Lizard Island. 



Allied to L. subfasciatus ; but the elytra are without any 

 nodes or callosities. The two species differ from most of their 

 congeners in having a second line of punctures at the base, 

 near the scutellum. 



Leptops hypocrita. 



L. ovatus, niger, squamis albido-griseis, aliquando pallide viridi- 

 metallicis, sat dense tectus ; rostro modice elongate, in medio 

 canaliculato, lateraliter leviter longitudinaliter excavato ; scrobi- 

 bns subilexuosis ; antennis tenuatis, cinereo-pubescentibus, clava 

 nigra ; prothorace transverse, utrinque rotundato, in medio antice 

 paule impresse, postice obsolete carinulato ; scutelle parvo ; ely- 

 tris ampHatis ( 5 sola) singulatim tuberculate-tricarinatis, carina 

 extima tubercule primo prominulo, inter carinas punctis remotis 

 in seriebus duobus instructis, apicibus subacuminatis; corpore 

 infra pedibusque dense squamosis, pihs longioribus vestitis.

Hoib. South Australia. 



This is the most abnormal in appearance of all the specie 

 of this polymorphous genus. There were four or five speci- 

 mens in the collection of Mr. Wilson, of Adelaide. 



Leptops tetraphysodes. 



L. ovatus, fuscus, ubique densissime griseo-squamosus ; rostro capite 

 duple longiore, supra bisulcato ; antennis attenuatis, scape oculum 

 paule superante, funieule art. duobus basalibus sequentibus plus 

 duple longioribus ; oculis subovatis ; prothorace oblongo, augusto, 

 subcylindrico, supra modice convexe, sat cenfertim tuberculato ; 

 elytris breviter evatis, elevato-convexis, prothorace multo latiori- 

 bus, striato-punctatis, striis subflexuesis, punctis sat remotis, 

 interstitiis latis, apicibus acuminatis, singulis elytris sex-tubercu- 

 latis, tuberculis tribus minoribus ante medium oblique sitis, duo- 

 bus majoribus, quoTum intime validiore, postice, alteroque versus 

 apicem, sitis ; sternis femoribusque squamis elongatis adspersis ; 

 tibiis tarsisque setulosis. Long. 4 Kn. 



Hah. Queensland. 



A peculiar species, owing to its strongly convex elytra and 

 the apparent absence of a scutellum ; this part, however, is 

 clearly present in individuals when the scales surrounding it 

 have been removed. In some respects it is like AmtsaUus, 

 from which it is distinguished by the cavernous corbels of the 

 posterior tibiae.
