REVISION OF THE NYCTOZOILIDES. 
wider than 7, 11 one and a-half times as long as 10, oval. Pro- 
thorax 4x6 mm. (length measured in middle), greatest width at 
middle, base scarcely wider than apex, the latter arcuate- 
em arginate, front angles sub-rectangular, not prominent, sides 
moderately and evenly rounded, a little sinuate before the acute 
posterior angles, the latter produced and slightly overlapping 
elytra, extreme border nowhere clearly defined except on front 
angles; disc coarsely punctate, medial line clearly shown by small 
carina on basal and smooth impression on anterior half, a, large 
foveate impression near centre, on each side of medial line. Scutel- 
lum very transverse and narrow. Elytra 9.5 x 8 (vix) mm. ; regu- 
larly oval, convex, at extreme base narrower than prothorax, soon 
widening and moderately rounded at sides, apical declivity 
moderate, each elytron with three slightly raised, wide, and crenu- 
late costa?, and a fourth less, distinct lateral costa, the suture also 
raised and nodulose-costate throughout, bifurcating near scutellum ; 
the first and fourth costse meet in a wide curve near apex, the 
second and third indefinitely terminating within this curve, the 
first three costa? extending to the base, the fourth sub-obsolete on 
basal half, and less clearly defined than the others (but evident) 
posteriorly, intervals vermiculate-rugose, not reticulate, the ridges 
more obviously transverse towards the sides, in the centre entirely 
confused, the costa?. and ridges coarsely punctate ; beneath moder- 
ately nitid, black with reddish tinge, abdomen minutely shagreened, 
epipleura? smooth, sternum very faintly rugose, prosternum com- 
pressed into a narrow ridge, its process produced and rounded at 
apex, with carinate edges, intercoxal process wide, margined and 
tumid at the sides; femora apparently smooth, hind and inter- 
mediate tibiae of $ rather strongly tomentose on the inside, of $ 
much less so, submentum with wide bidentate lateral process 
projecting forward. 
Dimensions : 14x8 (vix) mm. 
Habitat-. Augathella, South Queensland; sent by Mr. C. 
French, F.L.S. 
Two specimens under examination, probably the two sexes. 
The female (?) has the front basal tarsi less enlarged, the abdomen 
more tumid, showing coriaceous margins, and less tomentose hind
