31. PARALASTOR PUSILLUS Sauss. 
This species is of the same general appearance and structure as 
P. simulator, but should easily be distinguished by the prothoracic 
angles being indistinct or not at all produced and the second 
ventral seginent having the top of the truncation in the middle 
produced into a spiniform tubercle. No mention is made of a 
white or yellow margin to the tegule, nor of the conspicuous 
white or yellow line on the hind tibiz. 
The examples that I have. before me from the British Museum 
and Oxford, named pusillus, are partly P. simulator and partly 
other species. 
Hab. “ Lia Nouvelle-Galles du Sud ” (coll. F. Smith).

Colore P. simulatori fere assimilis. Abdomen fasciis duabus 
bicoloratis ornatum, secunda latera versus ampliata. Clypeus
