184 G. Sloane, New Carabidae from German New Guinea, 
with minute setulose punctures depressed near apex, 1” with a 
faintly marked striole at base, 3"4 subeonvex on basal two thirds, 
bearing 2 setigerous punctures on apical declivity (posterior seta 
at extremity), 8" strongly convex behind humeral angle, 9% narrow, 
convex and closely setigerous-punctate near base, almost obliterate 
in middle, distinet and seriate-punctate on apical third; margin 
extending from peduncle to apex, widely reflexed on base. Ungues 
4-dentate near base. 
Length 8, breadth 3.2 mm. 
Hab.: Kaiser Wilhelm Land, Sattelberg. 
I am doubtful if this species properly belongs to the genus 
Simurus, but have referred it to that genus because it has the 
labium 4-setose (the two inner setae smaller than the two outer 
ones) and the ungues 4-dentate near the base. It is certainly 
allied to Sinurus, but has not the head narrowed little by little 
behind the eyes (as said by Chaudoir of Sinurus opacus, the type 
of the genus). Ss. obscurus is also allied to Macleay’s genus Strick- 
landia, which was erroneously described as having the labium 
“as in Coptodera’”’. Stricklandia has the labium with the ligula 
emarginate and 4-setose, paraglossae adherent to the ligula with 
apex rounded and projecting but little beyond the ligula. Unlike 
the species of Stricklandia, S. obscurus is without apical spines on 
the elytra. 
Tribe Physocrotaphini. 
Genus Pogonoglossus.

Carpaulum, Sloane, Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. W. 1904, XXIX, p. 536. 
I have no doubt but that Schmidt-Goebel’s figure of Librestis 
truncata, a species which he never described, represents a species 
of Pogonoglossus; and I know now that Carpaulum injlaticeps, S1., 
and (©. porosus, Sl., also belong to that genus. I have examined 
the type specimen of Planeies unicolor, Macleay (Proc. Linn. Soc. 
N.S. W. [2] I, 1886, p. 137) and found it to be a species of 
Pogonoglossus. 
Pogonoglossus Horni, n. sp. 
Elongate, depressed ; head sharply narrowed to neck, post- 
ocular tubercle small, distant from eye; prothorax transverse, 
lishtly emarginate at apex; elytra parallelogrammical, not bordered 
on base behind peduncle, striate, interstices setose-punctate, 1* 
with an elongate striole at base, 3" 3-punctate; 4 anterior femora 
clothed with a mossy fulvous villosity. :
