97.  Notoclea atomaria.  Marsham, in Linnean Transactions 9 286, table 24. figure 3.

98.  Notoclea splendens (n.s.) N. splendidissime cuprea antennis piceis, scutello nigro, thorace postice elytrorum sutura maculisque duabus dorsalibus caeruleo-viridibus, elytris novem striis punctorum subtilissime impressis.

99.  Notoclea testacea.  Marsham, in Linnean Transactions 9 289. table 24. figure 10.

100.  Notoclea 8-maculata.  Marsham, in Linnean Transactions 9 294. table 25. figure 10.

101.  Podontia nigrovaria (n.s.) P. rufa thorace punctis quatuor utrinque inter latus et fossulas anticas duas divergentes in lineam transversam dispositis, scutellu piceo, elytris testaceis nigro-variis striatis striis punctatis, corpore subtus pedibusque rufis, femoribus posticis valde incrassatis.

Obs.  This insect bears a great affinity to Chrysomela 14-punctata, Fab., and other Asiatic insects of this type, which have been separated from Chrysomela by Dalman in his Ephemerides Entomologicae, under the name of Podontia.

102.  Phyllocharis cyanicornis.  Dalman.  Ephem.  Entom. 21.  Chrysomela cyanicornis.  Fab.  Syst.  Eleuth. 1 page 436. 85.

103.  Phyllocharis klugii (n.s.) P. rufo-testacea antennis scutello pedibusque atro-cyaneis, capite puncto verticali, thorace macula posticali, elytris punctato-striatis maculis duabus anticis cruceque apicali atro-cyaneis, abdomine subtus atro-cyaneo limbo rufo.

Obs.  This species comes very near to the Chrysomela cyanipes of Fabricius, and is probably only a variety of it.

104.  Chrysomela 18-guttata.  Fab.  Syst.  Eleuth. 1 439. 101.  Don.  Ins. of New Holland, table 2.

105.  Chrysomela curtisii.  Kirby, in Linnean Transactions volume 12.

106.  Cryptocephalus tricolor.  Fab.  Syst.  Eleuth. 2 51. 55.  Var. beta.  Thoracis macula media nigra.

107.  Cassida deusta.  Fab.  Syst.  Eleuth. 1 396.44.  Oliv.  Ins. 97. table 1 figure 17.

108.  Coccinella kingii (n.s.) C. pallide testacea thorace medio maculis quinque nigris duabus anticis elongatia tribusque posticis rotundatis, elytris nigro-tripunctatis punctis humeralibus duobus alioque media marginali.

Order ORTHOPTERA.

109.  Blatta australis (n.s.) B. elongato-ovata, ferrugineo-fusca thorace suborbiculato-quadrato, marginibus laterali et posticali lunulisque utrinque duabus paulisper impressis, fascia ante marginem posticum nigrum lata alba transversa, et lineolis duabus longitudinalibus mediis rufis carinulam formantibus in furcam flavam ad marginem anticum desinentibus.

Obs.  The elytra of the male are much longer than the abdomen.

110.  Mantis quinquedens (n.s.) M. dilute-viridis thorace haud tripla longiore quam latiore, dorso parte antica, canaliculata excepta longitrorsum carinato, marginibus lateralibus denticulatis, elytris thorace duplo longioribus elongato-ovatis dilute viridibus margine externo maculaque media elevata flavescentibus; alis hyalinis dilute ferrugineis margine antico apiceque subfuscis; pedibus anticis coxis denticulatis margine interna piceo lineis quatuor albis elevatis transversis in dentes desinentibus.
