however, quite so long as Mr. Lea's description warrants; when 

 measured by an enlarged tracing it is about equal to the combined 

 fourth and fifth, and less than half the sixth joints. 



A. regulare Lea, while approaching A. brevicorne Blessig, is, I 

 think, a good species, from its constant parallel form; but so far 

 as colour goes, Blessig records his species as varying from metallic 

 green to black. 



A. minutum Lea = Brycopia minuta Lea, a fact noted by me.* 



To the above I added five species in 1905, and three more in 

 1906,f A. helmsi, A. reticulatum, A. violaceum, A. minor, A. glo- 

 bulosum, A. coeruleum, A. nitidum and A. punctum. 



A. helmsi Carter, is the same species as that labelled with an MS. 

 name in the Hope Coll.; as also in the Bates Coll. of the British 

 Museum. The original specimens came from the Macleay River, 

 but I have since taken it at Bulladelah, near Port Stephens. It 

 has been long in the Macleay Museum unnamed. 



A. reticulatum Carter. — I took the type-specimens at Kurra- 

 jong, but have since met with it on Mount Irvine, Blue Mountains. 



A. minor and A. globulosum have already been referred to 

 Brycopia by me. \ Mr. Ferguson has taken B. globulosa lately at 

 North Sydney near Middle Harbour; and I have taken it at 

 Waterfall, N. S.W. 



A. punctum Carter, has been shown to be synonymous with A. 

 yeminatum Pasc. 



To these I append below the descriptions of seven more — A. 

 barbatum, A. hackeri, A. canaliculatum, A . pestiferum, A. bicolor, 

 A. subdepressum and A. rotundum. 



In the Bates Coll. I also noted the following species : — 



A specimen labelled with an MS. name of Bates', is probably A. 

 victorice Blackb., or A. pustulosum Blackb., but at the time I was 

 in doubt as to the exact points of difference between these species. 



A specimen bearing an MS. name of Bates' is probably A. 

 lindense Blackb.
