 wider than the ring-joint which is subquadrate. Funicle 6 largest, larger than the pedicel, 

 subquadrate, funicle 4 wider than long. Club as long as the scape. Mandibles bidentate, the 

 second tooth broad. Face obscurely reddish centrally.

CCELOCi'BOMYIA new genus. 



Differs from Calocyliella Girault in having the antenna) inserted below the middle of the 

 face, on the elypeus or nearly, and they are stouter, more clavate, the three ring-joints more 

 graduate into the funicle. Also the axilla; are rather widely separated, not extending mesad of 

 the caudal ends of the parapsidal furrows as in the other genus. The postmarginal vein is 

 somewhat longer than the marginal, subequal to the slender stigmal. Mandibles tridentate. 

 Scutellum flat, not eonvexed and projecting above a declivous propodeum as in Cwlocyhella but 

 plane with the plane proi)odeum and with a narrow sclerite between it and the postseutellmn. 

 Segment 2 of abdomen occupying about a fifth of the surface. Caudal tibiae with two spurs. 



1. CCELOCYBOMYIA SEXFASCIATA new species. Female. Genotj-pe. 



Length, 2.20 mm. Orange yellow; pronotum, sclerite just caudad of scutellum, post- 

 scutellum and propodeum, pale lemon yellow. Wings hyaline; face of pronotum, sutures of 

 thoracic dorsum, portions of the propodeum some distance laterad of the meson and sis con- 

 spicuous stripes across abdomen from base to apex, black. Venation pale. Antennae and legs 

 yellow, the scape dusky above. Cephalic and caudal femora compressed, swollen but simple; 

 caudal coxa "compressed. Thorax finely, transversely wrinkled. Caudal margin of scutellum 

 narrowly black. Cephalo-Iateral angle of scutum lemon yellow. One spur of caudal tibia much 

 shorter than the other, both stout, not long. Scape somewhat compressed, the pedicel moderately 

 long; funicle 2 abruptly larger than 1, the others gradually enlarging in succession. 



Hahitat: Kunuida, Queensland. Jungle, September 15, 1913, two females. 



Type: No. Hy 375:1, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, a female on a tag, the head and hind 

 legs on a slide. 



2. CCELOCYBOMYIA NOVISEXFASCIATA new species. 



Female: — Length, 1.80 mm. 



Similar to sexfasciata but the mandibles arc narrower, the -first funicle joint (sixth of 

 the antennas) only slightly longer than the third joint (twice longer in the type species) and the 

 general coloration is greenish yellow instead of a rich reddish brown. Otherwise, surprisingly 

 alike. The thin black line across apex of scutellum is not quite comjilete. 



Described from two females on a card with the species following, labelled '" 11. Bred 

 from aborted capsules of red gum caused by a dipterous larva, Agromyza sp.? 12-10." 

 HaMtat: Melbourne, Victoria. 



Types: In the National Museum, Melbourne, the specimens as mouuted and a head on a 

 slide (with type head of the next species).
