Habitat. —It seems to be confined to New South Wales and Queensland. 
It does not appear to have been recorded from South Australia, but in view of 
certain New South Wales localities which approach the South Australian border, 
I should not be surprised to hear of its occurrence in the latter State. 
It is a dry country or interior species, occurring in great abundance in 
western New South Wales, western and northern Queensland, approaching the 
Gulf of Carpentaria, but it has not been recorded from the Northern Territory yet.
