Just passing apex of second abdominal segnient; front tibise feebly, the 

 otliers very feebly, denticulate Ijelow. Length (excliiding rostrum) 

 male 4V2, female 57* mm. 



Hab.: N.S.Wales, Sydney (Hamburg Museum, H. J. CAliTER 

 & H. W. COX); S. Australia, Mount Lofty (AUG. SiMSON). 



The suture is sometimes very narrowly black, but usually the black 

 is extended (more or less parallel with the suture) to about the middle 

 of each elytron, but in such specimens it is not sharply defined ; the two 

 terminal joints of the tarsi are black, and sometimes the others as well. 

 Usually the tip of the antennae is infuscate. The pubescence on the 

 elytra is rather dense about the base and apex, and the apical spots are 

 generally feebly connected with the median fascia in narrow lines. The 

 nude spot at the side of the üfth abdominal segnient is not always 

 present. The shape of the rostrum is suggestive of raany species of 

 Rhinaria, its upper surface is very narrow and convex about the middle, 

 where also its sides are narrowest. The claw Joint is rather stouter and 

 shorter than usual, and the claws although not truly appendiculate, are 

 somewhat inflated towards the base. In one male the legs (except the 

 knees) are almost entirely black, and this specimen has its right front 

 femur dentate; a certainly accidental Variation, as all the feniora in 

 seven other specimens are edentate. 



In shape close to P. minima, luit wider, rostrum of somewhat 

 diiferent shape and elytra fasciate.

Haplonycides. 



Haplonyoc (Aolles) tri/'asviatus, n. sp. 



Black, antennse of a dingy brown. Under surface and legs with dense 

 white or whitish scales. Upper surface with black scales, but with whitish 

 ones rather thickly interspersed on head, Condensed on sides of prothorax, 

 and forming three irregulär but distinct fascia? on elytra — one basal, 

 one median, and one apical. 



Rostrum rather stont, feebly curved; the length of i)rothorax in 

 male, slightly longer in female; with dense punctures, rather coarse 

 towards base, on basal two-thirds somewhat seriate in arrangement and 

 leaving several feeble costse exposed. Prothorax about twice as wide 

 as long; with dense, partially concealed punctures. Elytra not much 

 wider than prothorax, and not much longer than wide; with regulär rows 

 of not very large and partially concealed punctures; interstices much
