 and in having complete lateral carinas on the long propodeum. 



Dark metallic green, the abdomen bluish, the legs and antennal scape white, the front 

 coxK somewhat dusky, pedicel brown, rest of antenufe black. 



Wings hyaline; stigmal vein half as long as the postmarginal, the latter distinctly 

 ■shorter than the marginal. Thorax polygonally reticulate, the reticulation in raised lines, 

 rather coarser between the carina) of propodeum, the .propodeum laterad of the carina, the 

 axillfe and scutellum caudad of the suture very finely scaly. Abdomen rather broader than 

 the thorax, conic-ovate, the second segment occupying about one third of the surface. Mandibles 

 .3- and 4-dentate. Funicle joints all longer than wide, the first distinctly the longer, the fifth 

 as long as the pedicel, the club with a terminal spur. 



Deseiibed from one female caught in jungle. February 11, 1914 (A. P. Dodd). 



Eabitat: BabLnda, Queensland. 



Type: No. EySSOo, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, a female on a tag; head and hind
