CLAVICOENIA AND LAMELLICORNIA.

Upolu I. : Malololelei, 2000 ft., June, July. 

 Tutuila I. : Eastern end, 1070 ft., June (Kellers). 



Numerous specimens were taken in Upolu, but I have seen only a single 

 example from Tutuila. 



This little insect bears considerable resemblance to the Australian E. sloanei 

 and E. tielsonensis, Blackb., and especially to the former. It is broader and 

 less convex than that species and has much narrower tibiae. The pronotum 

 and elytra are more closely and roughly punctured, more pubescent and less 

 shining. The antennae are like those of E. sloanei, but with a less broad 

 terminal joint, and less slender and with a much broader club than in E. 

 nelsonensis. 



I may here record that Epuraea tasmanica, Grouv., is a synonym of E. 

 {Haptoncura) nelsonensis, Blackb., referred to above, and E. simsoni, Grouv., 

 of E. (Haptoncura) victoriensis, Blackb. The types of all four are in the British 

 Museum collection.
