suture being more sparsely punctured and not rugose. The 
probhorax is rather moi’e than half again as wide as its length 
down the middle, the base about half again as wide as the front, 
which is very widely and somewhat deeply emarginate with sharp 
angles ; the sides diverge arcuately in front and are nearly straight 
behind, appearing from above to form nearly right angles (the true 
marginal angles being seen from the side to l>e quite rounded od) 
with the base, which is scarcely bisinuate, and is widely and 
moderately produced backward in the middle ; the surface is very 
sparsely and quite finely punctulate. The transverse wrinkling of 
the elytra is very slight and obscure, their puncturation decidedly 
strong, not close, and scarcely at all squamose ; their lateral fringe 
is not continued round the apex which has an obscure and very 
narrow membranous border. The pygidium is extremely nitid, 
and has a shallow depression near its apex. The underside is very 
strongly and not closely punctured, the hairs in the ventral rows 
rather stout, and more or less continuous across the middle, the 
hind coxae much shorter than the metasternum, and the hind 
femora not much wider than the intermediate, with their inner 
apex rounded and not prominent.

Through the courtesy of F. M. Bailey, Esq., F.L.S. (Colonial 
Botanist of Queensland), I have before me specimens taken near 
Brisbane, which appear without doubt to appertain to this species. 
From its place in the foregoing tabulation various particulars 
regarding it are indicated which ]\[r. Macleay did not mention in 
his original description (Trans. Ent. Soc. N.8.W. II, p. 19G).
