conspicuously shorter than on any previously described species 

 of the subfamily, and the claw joint is also shorter (but this 

 may be sexually variable). The sides of the abdomen are 

 somewhat shrunken, probably indicating immaturity of the 

 type, but the species is such a distinct one that I have not 

 hesitated to describe it. 



Rhinotia haemoptera, Kirby, Parachilna. 



Haplonyx (Aolles) orbiculatus, Lea. 



A single specimen, apparently belonging to this species, 

 was taken at Ooldea, but with the circular dark patch on the 

 elytra less well-defined than on the type, owing to the intrusion 

 of numerous whitish scales on the apical slope ; many of the 

 pale 6cales elsewhere also have a rusty appearance.
