elytra ; scutellum with whitish scales; under surface and legs 
with dingy greyish scales. ^ Prothoracic and elytral punc- 
tures and interstices of the latter towards apex with stout 
scales. Rostrum glabrous. 
lead densely punctate; crests very large, in front with 
three very distinct raised shining processes: the median one 
largest and subcordate, the two others at the sides and 
slightly to the rear, and subcylindrie or subconical. Rostrum 
convex; flanks moderately regularly punctate, except that 
the punctures increase in size to (although not very large at) 
base. Club ovate, noticeably shorter than three preceding 
joints combined. — Prothorax with large round punctures, 
the walls of which are frequently absent in places, and cause 
rather large granules to appear; middle sometimes with & 
Short, irregular carina. Elytra with series of large sub- 
quadrate  pvnetures; interstices regular, much narrower 
than punetures, each with a regular row of glossy, reddish 
granules, distinct to, but very small at, apex. Under sur- 
face with derse punctures, each of which (except on apical 
segments of abdomen) bears a stout scale Length, 114; 
width, 4}; variation in length, 8-12 mm.

The three very distinct processes marking the front of the 
very large crests render this species remarkably distinct; 
from in front they cause the head (including the rostrum) to 
look remarkably like that of a goat. 
RHINARIA SIMULANS, n. Sp. 
Densely clothed with dingy scales, on the elytra obscurely 
mottied with small sooty patches; scutellum with whitish 
scales. Prothoracic punetures and elytral punctures and 
interstices (the latter much more distinctly than usual) with 
stout scales. Rostrum glabrous. 
Head densely punctate; crests very large, each side in 
front with a raised, moderately shining process. Rostrum 
convex, even at base; extreme base on each side with a nar- 
row extension; flanks finely and regularly punctate except 
at base, where the punctures are more crowded. Club 
ovate, no longer than two preceding joints. Prothoraz, 
elytra, and under surface as in the preceding species, except 
that the granules are smaller and those on the elytra darker. 
Length, 114; width, 4 mm. 
Hab.—N.S.W.: Queanbeyan. 
A very distinct species; the frontal crests are scarcely as 
large as in the preceding species, the processes are only two 
in number, and are partially obscured by clothing.
