having the apical fourth of elytra obscurely inf us ca ted, the abdomen uniformly 
pale, of the legs only the tarsi infuscated, and that seven of the apical joints of 
antennae are infuscated. In the original description the parts noted were described 
as follows : “ elytris . . . apicem macula fusca transversim signatis , abdomine 
. . . apice late nigro , . . . pedibus fuscis , antennis . . . articulo ultimo 
obscuro ” The antennae were also described as “ ab articulo tertio longe flabellatis ” 
On the Cairns male the antennal pectinations are rather shorter than usual in the 
genus, although decidedly longer than on Carphurus ; it also has a small interocular 
spot. The female differs from it in having the antennae strongly serrated only, the 
head immaculate, and the hind femora narrowly infuscated on the upper surface. 
Balanophorus mastersi Macl. 
A male without locality label, in the South Australian Museum, but probably 
from South Australia, differs from normal males in having the antennal rami much 
shorter, only about half as long as the width of the head, instead of as long as its 
widest part. 
Balanophorus concinnus Lea. 
A male from Cairns agrees well with the type, except that the hind legs are 
pale, with the exception of the infuscated tarsi.
