examples. T. puncfatus is a male, ajid not quite fully 

 developed. Likewise, of the genus Diaea there are again only 

 two species, one of which is probably D. punctata, L. Koch, 

 and the other, which is certainly new, I propose to name 

 D. pulleinei, in honour of my esteemed friend, Dr. Pulleine, 

 of Adelaide. The two half-grown examples of Stephanopsis 

 appear to be undoubtedly referrable to O. P. Cambridge's 

 jS. altifro7is.
