Habitat. — Windsor, Victoria (French; Froggatt Coll. 188). Super- 

 ficially like a miniature E. hcematura Ckll., but the eyes converge 

 below, and the sculpture of the sides of the mesothorax in front 

 is quite different. Also related to E. terminata Smith, but dis- 

 tinguished by the green abdomen, with the fourth as well as the 

 fifth segment red. Also related to E. salaris Ckll., but differing 

 in •color and sculpture. 

 Euryglossa ruberrima n. sp. 



9 . Length about 8 mm., very robust; Vjright terra-cotta red, 

 with the head and pleura black; mandibles black; antennae ferru- 

 ginous beneath, dark above; mesothorax large and convex, with 

 strong sparse punctures; metathorax black at sides, posteriorly 

 and extreme base; abdomen with conspicuous but suffused blue- 

 black transverse shades on fourth and fifth segments, and very slight 

 dusky shades on first to third; apex with fuscous hair; legs red, 

 including coxae and trochanters, but anterior femora piceous except 

 beneath and at extreme apex, middle femora largely darkened, 

 especially behind; hind legs entirely clear red; tegulae rufous; wings 

 strongly reddened. A species of the E. rubricata group; in my table 

 in Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., Aug., 1910, p. 167, it runs to E. rubricata 

 Sm., from which it differs by the dusky, reddened wings, the mandi- 

 bles black with only a red subapical spot, the metathorax largely 

 red, the tegulae dark reddish, and the base of the abdomen entirely 

 red. Compared with E. frenchii Ckll., it differs by the very strongly, 

 though not very densely, punctured clypeus and supraclypeal 

 area, the suture between them wholly dark, the entirely red hind 

 femora, and the apex of abdomen darkened, the dusky color of the 

 fifth segment leaving a pair of rather poorly defined transversely 

 oval red spots. From E. leptospermi Ckll. it differs by the color 

 of the wings, the larger head, the facial foveas not at all turned 

 mesad at upper end, the more sparsely punctured mesothorax, the 

 second r.n. reaching second s.m. a little more distant from its apex 

 than the first from its base. 



Habitat. — Victoria, 1910 (Froggatt, 149). It also carries a label 

 with number 1418. 

 Pachyprosopis haematostoma n. sp. 



9. Length about 6 mm.; rather robust, but head not enlarged; 

 head, thorax, and abdomen shining dark blue; labrum and greater 

 part of mandibles red; flagellum bright ferruginous beneath; cheeks 

 broad; mesothorax with very sparse, excessively feeble and minute 

 punctures; area of metathorax smooth and shining; sides of meta-
