( Figs. 13 View Figure 13 G–I, 15B View Figure 15 , 15Q, 18C)

Utra nitida Jordan, 1895: 267 View in CoL . TL: Northern Australia: Port Darwin and Cairns. Type specimen in MNHN?. Lameere, 1919: 21; McKeown, 1947: 5.

Diagnosis. Male Utra can be separated from Cryptipus by having strongly elongate and narrow mandibles and very fine shallow punctures on pronotum. The female of that species is distinguished from C. frenchi by having completely smooth pronotum and very narrow and short tarsomere 3.

Remarks. This species has been recorded from the Northern Territory, Queensland and New South Wales ( McKeown, 1947), but so far, all the specimens we have examined were collected from the Northern Queensland. In spite of our efforts we have not found the type specimen of Utra nitida at the MNHN.
