Tepresentative of a new genus of weevils and a large ground- 

 beetle, Hyperion schroetteri ; the latter hitherto has been sup- 

 posed to be confined to the heavily-timbered districts of 

 Eastern Australia, most of the specimens known having been 

 obtained from the pipes of iron-bark trees and other large 

 : species of Eucalyptus, so that its occurrence in the vicinity of 

 Oodnadatta is noteworthy. One very satisfactory feature of 

 the collection is the perfect condition of most of the specimens, 

 •other than those of which only fragments were seen.
