X. Mantispidae. 



Theristria felina Gerstaecker, Mittli. natur w. Vereins 

 f. Neuvorp. u. Eiigen, p. 44, 1884. — One specimen, Alice 

 River, September; one specimen, Cook Town, September, 

 both localities in Queensland. 



Mantispa strigipes Westwood, Träns. Ent. Soc. London, 

 p. 259, 1852. — One specimen, Geraldton, 30.9. 1910, W. Åu- 

 stralia. It is with some hesitation that I refer that specimen 

 to the species of Westwood; but the differences are so small 

 and insignificant that I do not like to describe it as a new 

 species. ♦ 



Mantispa (Austromantispa)imbecillaGERSTAECKER,Mitth. 

 naturw. Ver. f. Neuvorp. u, Riigen, p. 41, 1884. Mantispa 

 pullula Banks, Psyche, Vol. 17, p. 104, 1910. Necyla Doddi 

 Navas, Revista Real Acad. Madrid, p. 651, 1914. — Queens- 

 land: 1 specimen, Cape York, iVugust; 1 specimen, Alice river, 

 September; 1 specimen, Mt. Tambourine; 1 specimen, Ather- 

 ton, May; 1 specimen, Colosseum. N. W. Australia: 1 speci- 

 men, Noonkanbah, December. 



The species differs in some degree with regard to the 

 size and the markings. The smallest specimen measured 13 

 mm in expanse of forewings; the largest 20 mm. The mar- 

 kings on the head and on the prothorax and the colour of 

 the nervature and of the pterostigma differ as to the degree 

 of maturity. I possess a specimen of Banks's type-series 

 of M, imllula from Port Darwin, and I am quite sure that 

 the specimen is imhecilla. That Necyla Doddi also is syn- 

 onymous with M. imhecilla is uiidoubted. 



XT. Conlopterygldae. 



Coniopteryx maculithorax Enderlein, Zool. Jahrb., p. 

 204, pl. 4, fig. 5, 1906. — 2 ^ and 2 ? from Evelyne, August; 

 1 J* (immature) from Cedar creek, March; both localities in 

 Queensland. All the specimens in alcohol. Enderlein men- 

 tions the species from New South Wales.
