margins of the meso- and metanotum somewhat thickened and everted; terminal 

 vestiges with their apices definitely separated from the tergite; no trace of 

 wings; postero-lateral angles of the metanotum slightly produced. Abdominal 

 tergites with their postero-lateral angles backwardly produced, stigmata well 

 marked; lateral margins of the 7th tergite finely serrate. Supra-anal lamina 

 extending to nearly twice the length of the cerci, triangular, cucullate, apex 

 roundly emarginate, with the lateral margins prominently spined (Text-fig. 2). 

 Abdominal sternites black; valves of the subgenital lamina long, not strongly 

 curved. Legs eastaneous, tibiae darker, triseriately spined on the outer aspect; 

 posterior metatarsus nearly as long as the remaining tarsal segments combined; 

 pulvillus long; coxal borders narrowly margined with ochreous brown. Length, 

 41 mm.; pronotum 11 x 15 mm. 



Type, specimen No. 123 (5), Coll. Shaw; paratype 5, No. 124, Coll. Shaw. 



Hah. — W[estem Australia: Cunderdin (R. lUidge, Oct., 1913). 



Notes. — Mr. Illidge, who kindly gave me these two female specimens, took 

 them at Cunderdin about 120 miles east of Perth. The species belongs to the 

 analis group of the genus, and is closely allied to P. grandis Sauss. differing 

 from it in the possession of tegTninal vestiges, larger size, and relatively larger 

 supra-anal lamina. 



Genus C u t i l i a Stal. 



CUTILIA ILLINGWOETHI, n.Sp. * 



Rufo-fuscous, nitid. Head f usco-ruf ous ; eyes black; ocelliform spots large, 

 yellowish, filling in the angle formed between the eyes and the antennary fossae; 

 antennae testaceous, proximal segments darker. Pronotum anteriorly parabolic, 

 posterior margin almost straight, angles rounded, with a few erect hairs. Teg- 

 minal vestiges (Text-fig. 3) not free at the tips, but each indicated by a deep 

 curved sulcus occupying the position of the inner (or caudal) margin of the 

 usual form of tegminal vestige; no wing vestiges. Abdominal tergites with the 

 posterior half of each darker in colour, lateral margins thickened; postero- 

 lateral angles of 5th, 6th and 7th tergites backwardly produced; 7th tergite Avith 

 the posterior margin sinuate, lateral margins entire. Supra-anal lamina of <S 

 subquadrate, deeply emarginate, ciliate, postero-lateral angles spined. Cerci 

 about li times as long as the lamina. Supra-anal lamina of ? trigonal, sub- 

 tectiform, apex truncate, widely emarginate. Subgenital lamina of c? (Text-fig. 

 4) asymmetrical, triangularly produced, terminating in a long spine curving 

 towards the left; styles long, incurved, the left style longer, and situate nearer 

 the middle line than the right, which has a short blunt process internal to it. 

 Legs fusco-rufous, coxal borders rufo-testaoeous, posterior metatarsi longer than 

 the remaining tarsal segments combined, biseriately spined beneath, with short 

 pulvilli; 4th and 5th segments of the tarsi paler. Length, <S 17.5 — 22.5 mm., 

 2 23.5—24.5 mm.

Hah.— Queensland: Cairns (Dr. J. F. Illingworth, 1917 to 1920). 



Notes. — About a dozen specimens of this remarkable cockroach were sent to 

 me from Cairns by Dr. Illing-worth. In describing Cutilia uncinata (jSIem. 

 Qland Mus., vi., 1918, p. 160), a new species from islands off the coast of North 

 Queensland, attention was drawn to the hitherto unknown form of the vestigial 

 tegmina, and of the subgenital lamina of the c?, and now, from the adjoining 

 coast, comes another species almost identical in form in these two particulars;
