REVISION OF THE GENUS HETERONVX, 
with long fine erect hairs. The metasternum in the middle is 
shining and coarsely punctured, at the sides less shining and more 
finely and closely punctured. The hind coxse, and the ventral 
segments are punctured almost as the metasternum ; the rows of 
hairs on the ventral segments are feeble but continuous all across. 
The hind coxse are shorter than the metasternum, the hind 
femora very little wider than the intermediate, their inner apical 
angle obtuse and little prominent, — the hind tibia; more slender 
than is usual in the genus. 
S. Australia. 
N.B. — A specimen from Kangaroo Island is of a more ferru- 
ginous tone than those from the neighbourhood of Adelaide, l)ut 
does not differ otherwise.

The clypeus is bi’oadly and gently emarginate in front (shaped 
to the labrum), and its reflexed margin is enfeebled in the middle 
(approximating this species to those of Section iii) ; neverthele.ss 
the apex of the labrum does not rise to the level of the plane 
of the clypeus, and the reflexed margin of the clypeus is not 
interrupted. The surface of the whole head is very nearly a 
continuous plane and the slightly arched clypeal suture is very 
obscure. The prothorax is about half again as wide as its length 
down the middle, and the base is nearly half again as wide as the 
front, which is strongly emarginate, with sharp prominent angles ; 
the sides diverge in a gentle curve almost to the base where they 
are rounded more strongly, joining the base (which is slightly 
bi.sinuate but rather strongly and narrowly produced backward in
