80 MR. R. J. TILLYARD : LIFE-HISTORIES AND 



Queensland : 1 adult ? (F, P. Dodd). Kuranda, near Cairns. 



Holotype in the British Museum (Register No. 1907 — 129). 



I have pleasure in naming this fine species after my friend Mr. TJ. J. 

 Tillyard, in recognition of the important additions which he has made to our 

 knowledge of Australian Dragonflies. It is readily distinguished from 

 T. godeffroyi, de Selys, by its larger size and by the absence of humeral 

 yellow stripes. The prolongation of the snbcosta will at once separate it 

 from AustropJdehia costalis, Tillyard, to which it seems to be very similar in 

 general appearance. 



EXPLANATION OF THE PLATES. 



Plate 1. 



Fig. 1. Small creek on Mount Tambourine, showing straight stretch along which several 



Austrophlebia costalis were taken and its speed, of flight measured. A larva was 



taken under a small flat rock near top end of this stretch. 

 Fig. 2. Curtis's Falls and bathing-pool, Mount Tambourine. Larval skins of Austrophlebia 



costalis were seen on the large rock on which a man is sitting, and one was secured 



from the stalk of a native arum growing near by.
