NEW SPECIES. 

 Family EULOPHIDAE. 



Rhicnopeltella eucalypti, new species. 



(PL 7, Fig. 1,1 a, Ib.) 



This species seems to be very close to purpurea Girault but 

 differs from the description of that species in having the anterior 

 tibiae pale in front and black behind instead of pale throughout, 

 the knees not at all pale, and the antennal joints somewhat 

 differently proportioned. 



Female. Length 1.6 mm. Head, thorax, and abdomen with fine shallow, 

 reticulate-punctate sculpture, subopaque; vertex broad; ocelli in a low triangle, 

 widely separated, the posterior ocelli separated from the eye margin by about 

 the diameter of an ocellus; the antennae very short, 11-jointed, strongly clavate; 

 pedicel large, approximately twice as long as thick and half as long as the scape; 

 funicle 6-jointed, not longer than the pedicel, joints all transverse and increasing 

 gradually in width toward the club, the first four joints of funicle ring-like and 

 nearly equal in length, joint five approximately twice as long as four, joint six 

 a little more than twice as long as five; club ovate, distinctly much broader 

 than the funicle, about four-fifths as long as the scape, nearly twice as long as 

 funicle, distinctly 3-jointed, broadest at apex of first joint, and tapering gradually 

 to apex; distal club joint longer than the last funicle joint; parapsidal grooves 

 deep, complete, short and sharply curved outward, the scapulae short; scutellum 

 rather large, almost as long as the mesoscutum and only slightly convex; pro- 

 podeum very short, medially barely longer than the postscutellum, sculptured 

 like the rest of thorax; marginal vein rather thick, not quite twice as long as the 

 rather long stigmal; postmarginal distinctly longer than the stigmal, tapering
