Vict. 134, 135, 137). Entirely unique by the very peculiar antennae, 

 which approach the condition found in Thaumatosoma, a genus of a 

 quite different family. The bee is not much like the ordinary species 

 of Eurijglossa, and perhaps should form the type of a distinct genus. 

 Euryglossa sinapina n. sp. 



cT". Length about 6| mm.; black and bright lemon-yellow, the 

 thorax with thin, long pale hair; mesothorax, and the broad abdomen 

 above, black without markings. Very close to E. sinapipes Ckll., 

 with the description of which it agrees, except as follows: yellow 

 mark on hind border of scutellum very small and inconspicuous, 

 but a larger, conspicuous one on postscutellum, both marks inclined 

 to be divided into two; abdomen above pure black, the hind margins 

 of the segments smooth and shining (beneath, the abdomen is 

 much maculated with yellow, and this reaches the extreme sides of 

 segments 4 to 6); eyes pale gray; upper end of lateral face-marks 

 very broadly and obtusely rounded; flagellum pale orange-fulvous, 

 more dusky above with a dark mark above at base; mesothorax 

 shining; legs entirely yellow, except the ferruginous small joints of 

 tarsi; tegulse opaque light-3'ellow, with pellucid spot and anterior 

 margin; nervures and stigma dilute reddish sepia; first r.n. joining 

 second s.m. a short distance beyond its base. The marginal cell is 

 narrowly truncate. 



Habitat.— Fmnong, S. Australia (*S. W. Fulton; Nat. ISIus. Vict. 

 147). 



Euryglossa sanguinosa n. sp. 



9 . Length a little over 8 mm., robust; head and thorax black, 

 with white hair, which is quite abundant on face and front, tubercles 

 and sides of metathorax; face without light markings; clypeus shining,

 flagellum bright ferruginous beneath except at base; mesothorax 

 shining, minutely and densely punctured in front and at sides an- 

 teriorly, but on the disk with larger, sparse punctures; area of 

 metathorax shining; tegulae rufotestaceous ; wings hyaline, slightly 

 dusky; nervures and stigma dark chestnut; lower side of first s.m. 

 strongly arched; second s.m. long, receiving first r.n. a considerable 

 distance from base; legs dark rufous, the small joints of tarsi light 

 ferruginous; hind spur coarsely pectinate; abdomen broad, dullish, 

 with a sericeous lustre; first three segments dark green, with the 

 hind margins broadly dark reddish; remaining segments clear ferru- 

 ginous, the fourth with a dusky shade at sides; venter dark to middle
