EREPHOPSIS CONCOLOR Walk. An (jld spc-cimen labelled q.l., probably 

 for Queensland. 

 MACULIPENNIS Alac(|.? S.A., Yorketown, Pt. Lincoln, 

 Yeelanna. Specimens were identified by Miss Ricardo 

 as this species: they do not agree too well with ]Mac- 

 quart's descri]ition, which is a \ery complete one, but 

 d(ies not fit an}- species knnwn to me. I believe there 

 will eventually prove to be a number of allied species 

 of this tv])e, judging from specimens seen in various 

 collections.

I think there can be little doubt that E. doddi Ric. is synonymous with 

 E. gcinina Walk. In London I compared the types without being able to detect 

 any reason for separating them, while a study of the descriptions given by Miss 

 Ricardo has failed to reveal any character of specific importance. In answer to 

 my enquiry. Dr. Cjuy Marshall, (jf the Inqicrial liureau of Entomology, writes: 

 "Ercfihopsis doddi Ric. appears to me td be indistinguishable from E. (jcmina 

 W alls'., and Austen agrees." The type of /;. doddi Ric. is in the .South Australian 

 .Museum Collection.
