14:62 FURTHER NOTES ON AUSTRALIAN COLEOPTERA, 
(of course exclusi\’e of the spines), is not at all mder than long 
down the middle (in princess it is nearly ^ again as wide as long), 
and the apical truncation of the elytra runs straight across. The 
large sharp hooked spine on either side of the prothoras dis- 
tinguishes this species from all previously described except 
haniata, Newm., from which it differs "widely in size, colour, 
&c., <kc. The sides of the prothorax are almost perfectly parallel 
from the base to the anterior constriction, which is very strongly 
defined. The posterior tibiae are straight. The outer spines on 
joints 3 and 4 of the elytra are very much larger than in any 
other Tryphocliaria known to me. 
Found near Adelaide ; rare.

The head, prothorax, legs and antennae are of an almost uniform 
dark reddish-fuscous colour, the elytra wholly testaceous with the 
exception of the base and the hinder half of the suture which are 
narrowly infuscate, and the punctures which are dark brown. On 
the front half of the elytra the punctures are large, round and 
isolated on the disc becoming evidently smaller towards the suture 
and lateral margins, on the apical half the punctures are 
comparatively fine and close but not at all faintly impressed. 
The antennae agree in all respects with the description given above 
of those of T. harnata except in ha\dng the 12th joint well 
developed and perfectly dLtinct from the rest ; it is about ^ as 
long as the 11th joint.
