wings in atripcs also Jistiiu-tly ^al■l■^^v^>I■ nud the le^s ilirt'er in i.-(iliir. The species coii.<:ohrin)ix 

 differs from atripes mucdi as does (Fiiea. In alripts, the mandibles are bidentate. 



Chrysocharella iiiveipes differs markedly from Achryxocliaris nuiculatiptniiis in the 

 compact antennas, funicles 1 and 2 subequal, distinctly wider than long. In C fascial ipennis, 

 the first two jiairs of legs are all white or i)ractically so except coxa;. 



AchnjaochareUa diihia has broad fore wings with short marginal fringes (about 30 lines 

 of discal cilia), the hind coxa^ are white except at base, the pedicel above dusky. Funicle 1 

 quadrate, 2 somewhat longer than wide. Mandibles tridentate. Pedicel longest of the flagellum. 



CHRYSOCHAR()MVI.\ new genus of A. P. Dodd. 

 Like Achrysoclidroidcs Girault but the antenna; witli three ring-joints. 

 Type: The following species (rlnnf/ata) . 



1. CHRYSOCHAROMYIA ELONGATA new species. 



Fiintili': — Length, 1.7-") mm. Long and slender. 



Brilliant metallic coppery green; abdomen golden yellow, green at its base laterad and 

 with five dusky cross-stripes across from basal fifth to two thirds the length, the first and last 

 •stripes jiartly obliterated; tip of abdomen black; eyes garnet; legs and antennal scape very 

 pale yellow, the pedicel darker, rest of antennae black. Mandibles tridentate, the teeth acute. 

 Funicle 1 longer than pedicel, 3 barely two thirds the length of 1; club a little longer than 

 funicle 1; first club joint as long as preceding joint, a little longer than the second; tiagellum 

 with rather sparse, long thin hairs. Wings hyaline, scarcely reaching apex of abdomen; venation 

 yellow, the postmarginal vein somewhat longer than the stigmal. Abdomen conic-ovate, 

 elongate, fully twice as long as the thorax. Thorax with fine scaly reticulation, the lines not 

 raised, the propodeum smooth, with a short median carina. 



From one female captured by sweeping in forest, .Tanuary 27, 1013. 



Habitat: Magnetic Island (near Townsville), Queensland. 



Type: No. HyJSC'T, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a tag, the head on a 



slide. 



Later, a female from Brisbane, March 10, 1913 (H. Hacker). 



2. CHRYSOCHAROMYIA MANDIBULARIS new species. 



Female: — Length, l.l.j nun. Slender. 



Dark metallic green, the legs, abdomen and sca[)e jiale yellow, the abdomen washed 

 lightly with metallic, which forms about four subdusky cross-stri|ies. The valves of ovipositor 

 metallic and tip of abdomen. Antenna; with funicle 1 a little shorter and stouter than 2 which 

 is one and two third times longer than its width, much longer than the pedicel which is 

 subequal to the slender third club joint whose terminal seta is distinctly shorter than itself; 

 club 1 a little longer than 2, subequal to funicle 1 but slenderer, the body of club 3 distinctly 

 shorter than club 1. Mandibles 7-dentate, the four inner teeth ccnnblike. Postmarginal vein 

 elongate, nearly twice the length of the moderate stigmal, the marginal very long, the sub- 

 marginal distinctly broken. Flagellum black. Scutellum except along the meson and caudad, 

 the propodeum and the axillae suffused with brown. Parapsidal furrows apparently but half 

 compdete from caudad. Sculpture, fine polygons. Propodeum with a faint median carina, 

 subglabrons. Fore wings with a more or less rounded stain under stiymal vein and dist.al end 

 of marginal. Abdomen with a short jietiole. 



From one female captured in jungle, .January 17, 1014 (.\. P. Dodd). 



Haliitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 



Type: No. Hy 35SS, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a tag, head on a
