more roundly curved than in Eurytoma; the scutellum, too, 

 is larger, and much more naxTowed at the base than in that 

 genus. 



Xantheurytoma flava, sp.n. 



Yellow ; back of thorax deeper, more fulvous in tint ; centre 

 of the whole of the basal slope of pronotum and the thoracic 

 sutures more or less black, flagellum of antennae tinged with 

 fulvous, legs a paler yellow than the body ; wings hyaline, 

 nervures testaceous, the dilated parts darker-coloured ; stig- 

 nial nervure triangularly dilated at the base, the apical part 

 a little longer than it, roundly curved. The metanotum and 

 back of abdomen may be infuscated. (J. Length, 2 mm. 



Richmond, N.S.W. ; bred from galls in the flowers of the 

 Kurrajong (C. T. Musson). 



Occiput transverse. Hinder ocelli separated from each 

 other by twice the distance they are from the eyes. The 

 occiput may be infuscated more or less ; it is obscurely striated 

 Mesonotum and scutellum finely, closely, transversely stri- 

 ated. Parapsidal furrows distinct, roundly curved towards 

 each other at the apex, where they vmite and are joined to 

 the transverse scutellar furrow by a short one. Scutellum 

 large, ovate, twice longer than wide, obliquely narrowed to a 

 point at the base, the apex broadly rounded. 



Probably a variable species, as regards the amount of black.

Sydney ; in September. Dorrigo ; in September. Bred from 

 egg-cases of a small Mantis. 



This appears to be a variable species as regards colouration : 

 some specimens have more of the green tint than others; the 

 blue merges into violaceous, and these may be brassy tints. 

 The male is green with brassy tints, and, on the metanotum,
