Loboscelidia australis Kimsey 1988: 69. Holotype male; Australia: NSW (AEI).

Material studied.

Australia: New South Wales, Queensland; two specimens were seen including the holotype.

Diagnosis.

This is one of three species (including Loboscelidia maculata and Loboscelidia ora ), all Australian, that lack notauli (as in Fig. 22). Loboscelidia australis can be distinguished from these by the submedially curved medial vein, rectangular frontal projection, pronotum with sharp lateral fold or ridge, flagellomere XI less than 3 × as long as broad, and fore and midtibial flanges less than 0.5 × as long as their respective tibial lengths.
