New South Wales, Victoria, and Adelaide. 
Feronia Ividescens: length 45°; only differs from the pre- 
cedent by its form being less elongated; the elytra broader and 
more oval, without punctiform impressions, or at utmost 
one on the centre; tarsi, palpi, and antenne of a light 
brownish red.

Paroo River, in the interior of New Holland. 
Ferona Interioris: length 6’ ; of a brilliant black; head 
small, oval, feebly bi-impressed i in front; thorax almost square, 
rounded laterally, a little broader behind than in front ; an- 
terior and longitudinal impressions very feeble ; the poste- 
rior ones strong, broad, and deep ; elytra oblong, depressed, 
striated; a short abbreviated stria near the scutellum; a 
punctiform impression on the posterior part of the second 
stria, and another towards the middle on the third ; ; margin 
impressed : legs, antenne, and palpi of a dark brown,

Feronva Gagatina : length 32’; of a brilliant black; head 
oval; thorax rather broader than long, rounded laterally, 
and at the posterior angles; the anterior ones rather acute; 
a faint transverse 1mpression in front, and another behind ;

the impression between the second and third striz; the

Note.—For this and for Iridipennis I have preserved 
manuscript names, given I believe, by Mr. MacLeay, in his 
collection. 
Feronia Subgagatena: length 5’; very much like Gaga-
