The tjpe of this genus is very similar to Onesorus ohesus, but 

 it is very decidedly differentiated generically by the above cha- 

 racters. I have another species from Queensland, in which, infer 

 alia, the alternate interstices on the elytra are much broader and 

 more elevated than in the one here described. 



Lysizone alternata. L. nigra, undique squamosa, sordide ochracea, 

 pedibus pallide griseis ; capite pone oculos transversim impresso ; 

 rostro medio carinulato; prothorace utrinque fortiter rotundato, vittis 

 tribus fuscis, minus squamosis, notato ; elytris ampliatis, punctato- 

 sulcatis, interstitiis elevatis, rotundatis, setulis erectis etiam prseditis, 

 alternis, a tertio, minoribus, apicibus paulo productis ; antennis 

 squamulosis, setulis intermixtis ; clava, in certo situ, nigricante.

 elongato ; unguiculi simplices. Metasternum elongatum. Ab-

' In general contour the species described below resembles a 



TycMus. The subbasal position of the scrobes and the antenna) 



differentiate the genus,
