CERAMBYCLDAE. 



Parandra frenchi, Blackb. 



PI. xxvii., figs. 91 and 92. 



Several specimens of this species have been taken in the 

 Dorrigo district by Mr. W. Heron, and on the Tweed River by 

 Mr. Horace W. Brown. The male differs from the female in 

 having the head considerably wider (its width across the eyes 

 is equal to or slightly exceeds the greatest width of the 

 prothorax, in the female it is distinctly narrower than the 

 apex of the prothorax, and this, in the female, is less than the 

 median width) with larger jaws, antennae longer, with the 

 apical joint decidedly longer, prothorax more narrowed to the 

 base, with the hind angles more acute and the elytra much 

 shorter (only about two-thirds the length) and less parallel- 

 sided. The reference sdven by Blackburn was misprinted 

 1885, instead of 1855. _
