ed, with a broad tooth at base. The ovipositor of
female has the edges quite smooth beneath.

This species is but half the size of the Saga serrata.

Inhabits King George's Sound.

This species belongs to Serville's second division, or may possibly form
a third, as in the males there exist rudiments of wings. Each of the
elytra has a clear space like a tympanum; the upper part of the prothorax
is smooth, the sides and posterior part are very slightly bent back, the
last segment of abdomen notched at the end.

Habitat King George's Sound, Captain George Grey.

Calliptamus brunneus, new species.

Head smooth, of a light brown; antennae somewhat red, at the tip
brownish; ocelli yellow; the four facial keels distinct; thorax light
brown behind with foveated impressions, amidst which arise a few longish
prominences, transverse grooves feeble, dorsal keel very distinct. Elytra
longer than the body, slightly opaque, light brown, with a few indistinct
spots; wings scarcely as long as the elytra, with a greenish hue, except
at the tip which is brownish; abdomen brown, shining, palest beneath,
segments keeled above, posterior tibiae of a bright red, sides at the
base yellowish, spines black, posterior femora with two brown bands on
the upper edge about the middle.

HYMENOPTERA.

ONCORHINUS, Shuckard.

[Family Thynnidae Shuckard.]

My reasons for establishing the family Thynnidae I shall expose in my
monograph of that family, which would have been published ere this but
for the difficulty of procuring specimens for dissection; and as I must
for a similar reason defer the positive character until I publish the
synopsis of the whole, I will give those negative ones which are
comprised in the differences which distinguish it from Scotaena of Klug,
and from which it may be separated by its much swollen and protuberant
clypeus, being considerably less emarginate. Genae scarcely conspicuous.
Antennae longer and more porrect; second submarginal cell as long as the
third; abdomen broader at the base, its ventral surface concave;
hypopygium scarcely carinated laterally, and pygidium prominent and
deeply emarginate, its lateral edges produced into acute teeth. External
differences apparentl
