342 MEMOIES OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 



Male: — The same but the femora wholly yellow-brown and the scape; also, the funicle 

 joints are subelongate, the first about twice the length of the pedicel, not as long as the club, 

 the sixth distinctly longer than the pedicel, distinctly shorter than 1. 



Described from tv,o male, one female, specimens on a card in the collections of the 

 National Museum of Victoria at Melbourne, labelled " 31. Bred from leaves of Artichoke, 

 12-92." 



Habitat: Melbourne, Victoria. 



Types: In the National Museum, Melbourne, the above specimens and a slide with the 

 female head, hind leg and male antenna). 



Later, three more specimens from the same collections. 



ACEOCLISELLA new genus. 

 Female: — Similar in shape to Faracroclinis Girault but segment 4 of abdomen is not 

 enlarged, a little shorter than segment 2, the mandibles are 3- and 4-dentate and the propodeum 

 bears lateral carinas which about the middle curve in to the median carina, the spiracle oval, 

 moderate. Postmarginal vein elongate, over twice the length of the stigmal but a little shorter 

 than the rather long marginal. The longer marginal vein and different mandibles separate 

 it from Acroclisoides Girauit and Dodd; also the much longer petiole and slender body. In 

 the table of genera runs to Lomonosoffiella but the scutellum lacks the cross-suture and is as 

 in Faracloclinis. True spiracular sulci absent. 



1. ACEOCLISELLA PERPLEXA new species. 



Female: — Length, 2.30 mm. 



Dark metallic green, the wings hyaline, the venation dusky, the legs except coxse and 

 the scape dull honey yellow; center of abdomen along meson dorsad suffused with yellow. 

 Antenna) black. Mandibles white, reddish brown at tip. Pedicel shorter than funicle 1 which 

 is longest, wider distad, nearly one and a half times longer than wide at apes, joints 2-4 

 subequal, somewhat longer than wide, 6 <iuadrate, 5 subequal to pedicel. Cephalic margin of 

 clypeus near lateral ends emarginatc. Head, parapsidcs, petiole, propodeum, axilla), pronotum 

 laterad and scutum cephalad, scaly reticulate; rest of thorax punctate, the scutellum a little 

 coarser than scutum. Parapsidal furrows punctate, terminating caudad in an oval fovea which 

 is narrowly separated from the mesal ends of the axillae, thus incomplete. Abdomen subglabrous, 

 segment 3 at meson of caudal margin with a slight notch, segment 2 depressed. Propodeum 

 with a distinct neck; a large fovea just caudo-mesad of the spiracle, its caudal boundary 

 froming a cross-earina laterad of the lateral carina. 



Described from one female. 



Habitat : Queensland. 



Type: No. Hy SSSO, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag; antenna 

 and hind legs on a slide. 



PAEAPTEROSEMOIDEA new genus. 



Female: — In my table of genera runs to Apterosemoidea Girault but differs as follows: 

 The antenna are inserted below the middle of the face, on or a little below the ventral ends of 

 the eyes, the mandibles are 4-dentate, the abdomen is convexed ventrad. The propodeum without 

 true carinae but a fold or carina runs from the caudo-mesal part of the spiracle, latoro-caudad, 

 then crossing caudad of the spiracle and joining at apex another fold running meso-caudad 

 from cephalo-lateral angle and forming a U at whose mouth lies the spiracle. Propodeum of 

 nearly uniform length. Abdominal petiole not half the length of the hind coxa. Third ring- 

 joint as long as the other two combined. Otherwise like Apterosemoidea. Parapsidal furrows 

 obtuse.
