Holotype S (M. C. Z. Type No. 29,011) and 1 9 para- 
type both from Millaa Millaa,, Atherton Tableland, North 
Queensland, about 2,500 ft. altitude, April, 1932, in “scrub’' 
(ram forest). 
The unmodified front tarsi of the male set this species 
apart from most others of the genus. Otherwise the new 
species somewhat resembles T. {Castelnaudia) nitidicollis 
Cast, and its allies (of South Queensland etc.), but differs 
in having the discal elytral intervals (1 to 6) almost equally 
elevated instead of alternately so, and it differs also in 
various minor characters. Unmodified male tarsi occur in 
T. subvirens Chd. and T. simplicipes SI. (of South Queens- 
land) but in these species the mentum tooth is rounded, 
not bifid as in the present new species, and there are many 
other specific differences. For these reasons I doubt if the 
new species is very closely related to any previously known 
one. This species is, of course, very small within its genus. 
Genus Notonomiis Chd. 
The following three new species of Notono inns go with 
N. doddi SI. and saepestriatus SI. (both known to me only 
by description) to form a subgroup of the '' kingi-gr oup'' of 
Sloane’s second revision of the genus (Proc. Linn. Soc. New 
South Wales, Vol. 38, 1913, pp. 404-449, esp. pp. 437-440). 
The subgroup is apparently confined to North Queensland 
(known from the Atherton Tableland and Mt. Spurgeon) 
and is characterized by having the posterior-lateral seti- 
gerous puncture of the margin of the pronotum on the 
margin at the basal angle; the elytra fully and strongly 
striate, with the third interval not more than (but some- 
times less than) 2-punctate and the fifth and seventh in- 
tervals impunctate, and the eighth interval (the tenth in 
the species with extra intervals) narrow and convex: the 
metepisterna short; the intercoxal declivity of the pro- 
sternum flat and without setae ; the tarsi not striate above ; 
the posterior tarsi with the first segment rather long (but 
not quite so long as the next two together), with the claw- 
segment glabrous below; and with secondary sexual char- 
acters normal, that is the male with one seta on each side 
of the last ventral segment and the female with two setae 
each side, and the male with the anterior tarsi moderately
