April 27tli, 1904. The following papers were read: — 1) Descriptions 

 of new Species of Australian Coleoptera. Part VII. By Arthur M. Lea, 

 F.E.S, Thirty species, referable to the genera Oedichirus , SuniopsJs, Suniuf, 

 Cryptohium^ Dicax^ Rhysodes^ Loemophloeus^ Dryocora^ Phycochus ^ Emenadia^ 

 Evanioeera^ Daner ces^ Chrysolophus , Hylesinus^ Platypus^ and Chalcolampra, 

 are described as new. Three previously unnoticed blind species, from Tas- 

 mania, are recorded — Aimnmatus 12-striatus, Müll., introduced from Eng- 

 land, probably with pot plants, Phycochus graniceps^ Broun, found also in 

 New Zealand, and P. sulcipennis , n.sp. The number of blind species known 

 from Australia and Tasmania is thus brought up to a total of eight. 2) Con- 

 tributions to a Knowledge of Australian Entozoa. No. III. On some Species 

 of Holostomidae from Australian Birds. By S. J. Johnston, B.A. , B.Sc. 

 Five species, all parasites of Australian birds, are described as new. Hemi- 

 stomum trianguläre J from DaceJo gigas 2,3 mm long. Anterior body-region 

 triangular: clinging plug simple short, and from cubical to rounded. Vitel- 

 line glands distributed throughout entire length of body. Hemistomum inter- 

 medium^ from Cygnus atratus. Length 3,6 mm. Anterior body-region almost 

 a cup : clinging plug consisting of two parallel plates rolled towards one 

 another in a scroll-like manner. Ventral sucker large and stalked: character- 

 istic groups of unicellular glands: walls of the uterus raised up into a number 

 of deep folds. This species is an interesting intermediate form between the 

 genera Hemistomum and Holostomum. Holostomum Hillii^ from Larus novae- 

 hollandiae. Length 7 mm. Ventral wall of clinging plug consisting of two 

 pieces and springing from ventral wall of cup: plug projecting from cup. 

 Vitelline glands absent from anterior body-region. Holostomum simplex^
