 Qurculionida could be much more unlike than this and the last.

This genus may be regarded as the representative in New Cale- 

 donia of the New Zealand Psepholax. Prom that genus it is dif- 

 ferentiated, inter alia, by its straight aerobes and declivous meso- 

 sternum not covering the presternum. The structure of the 

 intermediate tibiae is evidently a modification of that of Psepholax.
