Bates. — On the Longicorn Coleoptera of New Zealand. 329 



elytris castaneo-fusco maciilatis, interdum plaga majore transversa communi 

 pone medinm. Long. \\ — 2 lin. 



The maculation of the elytra is peculiar in this little Longicorn, as it is the 

 derm and not the pubescence merely which is variegated in colour ; the spots 

 are very irregular, and lie chiefly near the suture, the yellow ground-colour 

 prevailing on the sides.

P. Capite antice haud dilatato, ore norm ali. 



Belongs to the same group as the curious New Caledonian Enicodes, but 

 differs totally from that genus in facies and in the narrow pro- and mesosterna. 

 The head of the male is very similar, the orbit of the eyes being abruptly 

 salient, and the mouth, though narrow, extremely broad ; the eyes are simply 

 reniform, with the upper portion rather narrow. 



Eurychcena fragilis, n. sp. 



E. fusco-testacea, pube subtili olivaceo-cinerea vestita, antennis pedibusque 



olivaceo-testaceis ; thorace Isevi, antice et postice transversim leviter impresso ; 



elytris basi thorace latioribus, humeris exsfcantibus, supra, basa excepta? 



punctulatis j corpore subtus plus minusve rufo-testaceo. Long. 2 J — -3 lin. 



M. P. 



The elytra in the male taper a little towards the apex; in fine fresh 



examples they have a few dark brown spots and an oblique fascia of the same 

 colour after the middle. 



Auckland [Mr. Lawson). 



Eurychcena feredayi, n. sp. 



E. fragili similis, at differt colore obscuriore ; elytris fusco-submaculatis ; 

 capite, corpore subtus, femoribus et tarsis nigro-fuscis ; antennarum articulis 

 apice fusco-maculatis. Long. 2\ lin. P,
