produced slightly at meson caudad, with a median groove, this 

 joining an arched short cross-groove posteriorly ; laterad of the 

 median projection with a few striae running from caudal 

 margin. Abdomen with segments 1-5 with dense punctuation, 

 this somewhat longitudinal ; segment 6 smooth at base, then 

 with numerous fine punctures and dense blackish pubescence, 

 this present on extreme laterad of other segments. Coxae 

 black. Forewings nearly hyaline in centre. 



Cacellus regalis, n, sp. 



9 . Very similar to aif(/ifsf i/s, Dodd, but the scutellum 

 is wholly punctate without the smooth mesal area ; the spine 

 on the postscutellum is shorter ; the abdominal segments after 

 the first are confluently punctate, with a somewhat longi- 

 tudinal tendency (in an (ju si us the punctures are not so distinct 

 and the longitudinal tendency is much more pronounced) ; 

 forewings without a mid-longitudinal stripe, faintly infuscate, 

 the marginal vein distinctly longer than the stigmal (a little 

 but distinctly shorter in auciustus). In both species the 

 sculpture of the head, scutum, and scutellum is confluently 

 umbilicately punctate, the punctures large ; also the median 

 vein is a thick brown line, and the basal vein an obscure very 

 oblique brown line. Length, 4'45 mm.

 CcratoteJc'id muqnifico, Dodd, ante, 1913, p. 142. 



d . Head longitudinally densely rugose, the vertex 

 transverse, rugose-punctate. Scutum densely confluently 

 punctate, the punctures not small, less dense on scutellum. 

 Abdomen with segments 1 and 2 striate, 3 and following with 

 scattered setigerous minute punctures. Postscutellum biden- 

 tate, the teeth inconspicuous on account of whitish pubescence 

 about them. 



Several males taken in jungle, 1,200-2,500 ft.. Cairns 

 district, April-May, 1915. Antennae in these specimens 

 wholly black, except the yellow scape. Head somewhat red- 

 brown.
