transvcrsis, gradatim latioribus ; clava breviter ovata, distincta. 

 OcuU oblongi, trauaversi, fortiter grauulati. Prothorax conico- 

 cylindricus, basi subbisinuatus, apice parum productus. Elytra 

 prothorace latiora, oblonga, parallela, modice convexa. Femora 

 compressa, incrassata, infra dentata ; tibicB validse, compressa), 

 intus bisinuatae et denticulatse,' apiee uncis duobus armatro; 

 tarsi robusti ; uncfuicuU parvi, liberi. Abdomen normale. Pro- 

 cessus intercoxalis anguste triangularis. 



The only character by which this genus differs from Gonipte- 

 rinse as defined by Lacordaire is the narrow intercoxal process. 

 As to the spurs of the tibise, they are well marked in some Goni- 

 pteri, e. g. G. lepidotus, thougli there is but one to each. The so- 

 litary specimen on which this genus is founded is the sole repre- 

 sentative of the subfamily, of which more than fifty species are 

 found in Australia, contained in Mr. Wallace's Malayan collections.

(Aterpiua3.) 



nostrum quadrangulare, capite vix lougius ; scroles submedianfe, 

 obliqua}, arcuata;, infra oculos terminantes. OcuU rotundati, 

 parum prominuli, subgrosse granulati. Scapus sensim incras- 

 satus ; funiculus 7-articulatus, articulo primo longiusculo, 

 cajteris transversis, ultimo clavam quasi incipiente. Protliorax 

 oblongus, cylindricus. Elytra subparallela, convexa, prothorace 

 multo latiora, basi apiceque truncata, humeris producta. Femora 

 in medio incrassata ; tihice flexuosfe, muticaj ; tarsi lineares, 

 subtus ciliati, articulo primo breviter triangular!, secundo 

 transverso, tertio baud lobato, quarto valido, cseteria conjunctim 

 longiore ; unguiculi liberi, divergentes. Abdomen normale. 

 The quadrangular rostrum, the seventh joint of the funicle 



closely connected to the club, and narrow tarsi, ciliated beneath, 



form a very trenchant diagnosis of this genus, which in habit is 



similar to Ethemaia.
