description: <i>Eurynassa australis</i> (Boisduval, 1835) (Figs. 8 A–B, 8I, 17C) <i>Mallodon australis</i> Boisduval, 1835: 465. TL: Australia. Neotype in BNHM (designated here). <i>Mallodon figuratum</i> Pascoe, 1859: 14. TL: Australia, Sydney. Holotype in BNHM (examined). Synonymised by Gahan 1893. <b> <i>Diagnosis</i>.</b> Male <i>E. australis</i> can be separated from other species by the following characters: body broad, elytra length usually less than twice of elytra width; maxillary and labial palps short; legs strong, surface very rough, lateral margin of each tibia with continuous rows of spines; large lobe on tarsomere 3; abdominal ventrites 1–5 fully covered with sexual punctures, except a pair of oval smooth area near lateral margins. <b> <i>Types</i>.</b> The type series of <i>Mallodon australis</i> has been lost. To establish identity of the well-known Boisduval’s species and to confirm established synonymy, the holotype of <i>Mallodon figuratum</i> Pascoe is here designated as also the neotype of <i>Mallodon australis</i>, which is a male specimen deposited at the BMNH with the following labels “ Pascoe Coll. 93-60. | Mallodon fignatum Pasc. Type | Eurynassa figurata Pasc.” and ID as BNHM-010799746. <i>Material examined</i> (Fig. 17C). <b>New South Wales: ANIC</b> (7 <b>&amp;male;&amp;male;</b>): Burrewarra Point, Apr. 2004, M.F.
