AUSTFALIAX nYMENOPTERA CILILCWOIDEA. ir.—GISAULT. 297 



Teibe HEMIPTARSENINI. 



Gexus NECREMNOMYIA Girault. 



The seutelluin is simple, the form sleiich^r, the axilla? mui-h advanced. Type of genotj'pe 

 re-examined. 



1. NECREMNOMYIA VARISCUTUM new species. 



Female: — Differs from saiiitiiicrni in the following characters only: The femora are 

 dusky only about their middles, all white in cephalic legs; the funiele joints are all longer than 

 wide, not siibglobular ; and the raised polygonal sculpture of the scutum is finer and disappears 

 broadly along the meson and cephalad, the surface opaque. In the genotype, this sculpture is 

 uniform and distinct. In both species the postmarginal vein is a little longer than the short 

 stigmal. Casually, the club appears 2-jointed. 



Prom one female taken in jungle, November, 1913 (A. P. Dodd). 



Habitat: Harvey "s Creek (Cairns), Queensland. 



Type: No. HyS716, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a tag. 



Genu.? SYilPIESONECEEilNUS Girault. 



This genus is exactly similar to Neocremnomyia except that the form is more robust, 

 the median carina of propodeum paired, the caudal tibial spur stout, the mandibles with 

 several more teeth and the flagellum is subconipressed, the distal two funiele joints with short 

 petioles. The venation is identical. Genotype re-examined (type). 



1. SYMPIESONECREMNUS iENELLA new species of A. P. Dodd. 



Female: — Length, 1.40 mm. 



Like hoasi Girault but smaller, the sculpture finer, the propodeum smooth and with a 

 single median carina; abdomen slenderer; tibise, tarsi and posterior femora yellow, the first 

 two pairs of femora brownish; scape and pedicel fuscous, the flagellum dark yellow-brown, 

 funiele joints subequal; otherwise the same or nearly. 



From one female taken sweeping jungle along a road, February 23, 1912 (A.A.G.). 



Habitat: Rossville, Cooktown. 



Type: No. Hy3717, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag; head and 

 hind legs ou a slide. 



The club appears 2-jointed but the transverse constriction at about distal third is not 

 articulated (A. A. Girault). 



GEKU.S ASCOTOLINX Girault. 

 Removed from the Elachertini. Scutellum with no cross-groove before apex but the 

 lateral grooves join around the apical margin. The axillfe are ad\a,nced, the parapsidal 

 furrows only cephalad, obscure. Carina? of propodeum very distiuct, the lateral ones broadly 

 curved. Pronotum transverse quadr'ate. Postmarginal and stigmal veins rather short, the 

 marginal over five times the length of stigmal. AxUlaj advanced a third the way up the 

 .scutum. Type of genotype re-examined. 



1. ASCOTOLINX FUNERALIS Girault. 



Length, 1.63 unu. Abdominal segments except 2, finely scaly except caudad on each. 

 Club with a terminal seta. Scape slender. The type was captured May S, 1913 and is on a 

 tag, the head and cephalic legs on a slide.
