AVSTSALIAN HTMENOPTKBA ClIALCIDOIDEA, VI.—GIIUULT. 335 



Doseribed from one female cauglit by sweeping in jungle, November 1, 1913 (A. P. 

 DodJ). 



Eabitai: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 



Type: No. HyBS04, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag, the bead on 

 ii slide. 



2. ACROCIiISOIDES LATICEPS new species of A. P. Dodd and A. A. Girault. 



Female: — Lengtli, 1.75 mm. 



Very similar to mcgacephalus but the liiud eoxai also coucolorous, the fore wings hyaline, 

 the postmarginal vein no longer than the marginal, the pedicel only suffused with yellow, the 

 last three fuuicle joiuts yellow, ringed with black apieally, the abdomen longer, oval, the 

 fourth segment occupying less than a half of the surface, the abdomen not squarely cut off 

 ■behind it as in megaceplmlus. All three species have very large, 4-dentate mandibles. 



Described from one female caught in forest, January 27, 1914 (A. P. Dodd). 



Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 



Type: No. SyflSOB, Queensland Museimi, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag, the head on 

 a slide. 



3. ACROCLISOIDES MAJOR new species of A. P. Dodd and A. A. Girault. 



Female: — Length, 2.50 mm. 



Similar to the genotype but much larger, all coxae coucolorous, rest of legs and antennal 

 scape and pedicel lemon yellow, fore wings hyaline; head large but only a little wider than 

 the thorax, the vertex not narrow, mandibles \'erj' large, petiole of abdomen yellow, not longer 

 than hind eoxaj nor half as long as rest of abdomen, segments 2-4 subequal, the remaining 

 segments very short and hidden; stigmal vein somewhat longer than the marginal and a little 

 shorter than postmarginal; funicle joints longer. 



Described from one female caught by sweeping edge of jungle, December 20, 1912 

 (A. P. Dodd). 



Habitat: Kurauda, Queensland. 



Type: No. Hy3S06, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag, the head on 

 a slide. 



EPIPOLYCYSTUS new genus. 



Female: — Like Ncopolycystus Girault but the club lacks the nipple-like fourth joint (or 

 at least it is barely indicated) and is only 2-jointed, the fourth segment of abdomen is a little 

 longer than the second, the third a little shorter, the three combined occupying two thirds of 

 the surface. .\lso the ijropodeimi is quite diiferent in shape, being conical, very short at the 

 spiracle (in Neopolycysius nearly as long from the spiracle as along the meson, the short 

 neck making the difference), long at meson. Segments 2 and 3 of abdomen caudad at meson 

 with very slight notches. Segment 5 of abdomen transverse sublinear, not half the length of 

 segment 4. Antennre 12-jointed with three ring-joints. 



1. EPIPOLYCYSTUS ASILUS new species. Genotype. 



Female: — Length, 1.30 nmi. 



Dark metallic green, the wings hyaline; all of each leg and the scape yellow-brown, 

 also first two ring-joints which are sm.aller than the third. Punicle joints more or less equal, 

 ■enlarging slightly distad, each a little wider than long, the pedicel distinctly longer. Head
