Hay, N.S.W., in November: Woolomin, N.S.W., "para- 

 sitic on cut-worm" ; Tenterfield, N.S.W., bred from Tela 

 anartoides, in April (Agric. Gaz. N.S.Wales, June 2nd, 1910, 

 p. 466). It is said by Mr. Froggatt to be a parasite of the 

 Banded Saltbush Moth, Anthela (Darala) denficulafa. 



A variable species in size, varying from 8 to 22 mm., in 

 length ; there is a variability, too, in the size and number 

 of the yellowish-white markings, and the face and orbits may 

 be clear yellow or fulvous. Such variation in size as I have 

 indicated in this species, is not uncommon in the Pimjylince.

A species variable in size, in the number and size of the 

 whitish markings, and in the amount of red colour on the 

 apical abdominal segments. It seems to be now established 

 (as an introduction from Australia) in New Zealand. Mr. 

 W. W. Froggatt thinks that it is a parasite of the "Army 

 worm." Leurnnia semipimctafa (cf. Agric. Gazette of N. S.
