Leptobyrsa major n. sp. 
(Plate XXXV, figure 14.) 
Similar in shape to L. magnified , but larger and without any fuscous markings. 
Head spines and antennae as in L. magnified ; the rostrum reaches to the 
intermediate coxae. Pronotum very finely punctured and thinly pilose ; the median 
carina is foliaceous, with large oblong areolae ; paranota very large, broadly rounded 
anteriorly, with seven rows of areolae, which are small near the base, increasing in 
size towards the margin. Elytra more widely rounded at the sides and posteriorly, 
than in L. magnified ; the areolae are also more numerous and slightly smaller ; 
discoidal area very wide, swollen towards the outer margin, with a small transverse 
depression at about the middle ; costal membrane with a few transverse rows of 
reticulations slightly stouter than the others, forming horizontal lines ; the 
membrane between the reticulations is convex, hyaline, and iridescent. 
General colour pale ochraceous; eyes, antennal segment IV except basally, 
claws, and inesosternum, black ; abdomen beneath brown, becoming paler apically ; 
pronotum tawny; reticulations on pronotum and elytra whitish ochraceous, with 
some slightly darker on vesicle, margins of paranota and centre of the discoidal 
area ; legs and antennae, flavous. Length 5 mm. ; breadth 3-875 mm. 
Holotype. — Blackbutt, Queensland, November (H. Hacker). Unique. He. 
3373. 
Furcilliger tricolor n. sp. 
(Text-figure 1.) 
Head armed with five spines, the basal pair longest, appressed to head and 
curving inwardly ; the central spine semi-erect, and the anterior pair porrect, in 
close contact, between the antennae ; bucculae closed and from side view, angular 
in front ; the rostrum reaches to the intermediate coxae ; antennal segment I short 
and cylindrical ; II slightly shorter than the first ; III long and filiform, three times 
longer than the fourth. Pronotum in front about the same width as head, the 
anterior margin slightly sinuate and touching the base of eyes : pronotal vesicle 
small and coarsely reticulated, nearly vertical in front and horizontal above, 
transversely ridged anteriorly, with a small tubercle at each end ; paranota very 
large, rugose, covering most of the disc, composed of large deeply impressed areolae, 
the reticulations coarse and uneven; they are elevated and longitudinally ridged 
on each side of the disc, appearing, when viewed from the front, as two pyramidal 
elevations, higher than the median carina which is uniseriate, and lies between 
them ; the lateral carina*. are uniseriate, widely separated on the posterior angle, 
converging tow ards the disc where they are apposed to the margins of the paranota ; 
posterior angle reticulate and acutely pointed. Elytra broad, flat, and extending 
beyond the abdomen : moderately ampliated from base to middle, then slightly 
narrowed, apex widely rounded ; the areas are sharply defined ; costal membrane 
biseriate, areolae large, the outer row slightly larger than the inner ; costal area 
declivous, biseriate, not widened or angulate at the apex of discoidal area, areolae 
small.
