21. COCCOPHAGUS REGULUS new species. 



Female: — Length, 0.95 mm., cwludiug ovipositor. 



Similar to abiwnnicorrds and singularis but at once dlstinguislied from either in liaving 

 funicle 1 longer than wide, the pedicel elongate- (somewhat over twice longer than wide at 

 apex: only slightly longer than wide at apex in abnormicornis and siiiyularis), the black on 

 the scutum acutely prolonged conically to scutellum (more or less obscurely so in the other 

 species), the marginal vein longer, somewhat over half the length of the submarginal, the fore 

 wing dusky from base to apex of venation, the head black except vertex. Valves of ovipositor 

 extruded distinctly a short distance. Legs black, the knees whitish, also the tibia;, the caudal 

 femur comiiressed, large. Antenna^ about as in singuUiris but slenderer, the pedicel elongate 

 as noted. 



From one female caught l>y sweeping forest, ilay -t, 191-i (A. P. Dodd). 



Uahitai: Murwillumliah (Tweed River), New South Wales. 



Type: No. Ey39i0, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a slide. 



22. COCCOPHAGUS UNFASCIATA new species. 



F'emale: — Length, U.7.3 mm. 



I Deep golden yellow, the abdomen with a black stripe across its middle dorsad anci 

 another across base, the axilla?, propodeum and pronotum also black. Fore wings dusky from 

 margin to margin under all of marginal vein, the marginal fringes long, the longest about 

 two thirds the greatest wing width and about as long as the caudal fringes of the hind wing. 

 Fore wing with about eleven, the hind wing with about three, lines of discal cilia where 

 widest. Club acuminate, the conical distal .ioint longer than either of the other two 

 which are subequal. each somewhat longer than wide, longer than any of the funicle joints. 

 Funicle 1 somewhat wider than long. '2 and 3 subequal, each a little longer than wide, a 

 little longer than the pedicel, distinctly longer than 1. Thorax shagreened. without a median 

 groove. Legs white; antenna" yellowish white. Differs notably from aiitiopa in the somewhat 

 longer marginal fringes of tlie tore wing, the different color, the short tirst funicle joint 

 and the differentiated club wliicli narrows distad. 



From one female caught by sweeping forest. May IS. Ifll4. 



Habitat: Gordonvale (t'airns), Queensland. 



Type: No. Hy29il, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a slide. 



23. COCCOPHAGUS ARGENTIFASCIA new species. 



Female: — Length, U.7U mm. Ovijiositor inserted distad of proximal half as in 

 aiy/enteus. 



Orange yellow; lower face, ])ronotum. propodeum and immediate base of abdomen 

 dusky. -Abdomen black with a broad silvery white band across just out from base (occupying 

 a little over a third of the surface). Legs excej)t proximal half of coxa?, silvery white. Antennse 

 lemon yellow, distal club joint dusky. Pore wings with a light brownish stripe across them 

 beginning a little distad of proximal third of marginal vein and ending a little distance distad 

 of venation. Flagellum cylindrical, the club a little wider than the funicle; pedicel shorter 

 than funicle 1 v.hich is a little shorter than 3, 2 longest, a little over twice longer than wide, 

 a third longer than 1. Club joints longer than wide. Stigmal vein with a short but distinct 

 neck. Fore wings rather slender. Scutum with scattered seta-. 



From one female taken from a window, February 24. 1914.
