90 MEMOIRS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 



Marginal vein a little longer than in the genotype, eight or more times longer than 

 wide in both species. In tliis species, the jiostmarginal vein is at least two thirds the length 

 of the short stigmal, the latter less than a fourth the length of the marginal. In the single 

 specimen, the tuft on scutelhnn was very sparse, represented by four or five long lilack hairs. 

 In the genotype, the metallic stripe across base of abdomen is rather broad. 



t'HRYSOPOPHAGUIDES new genus. 



Feiiuiti : — Differs from Achri/sopopjiagu.i in having the tliird touth of mandible truncate, 

 moderately broad, the funicle joints all longer than wide, the club long but shorter than the 

 funicle. not enlarged and not with very ()bli(|ue divisions as in that genus; the cheeks are a 

 little longer than the eyes. Tlie funicle joints are longer, the clul) slenderer and not as long 

 as the funicle. 



1. CHRYSOPOPHAGOIDES WESTWOODI now species. 



Female: — Length, 2.75 nun., excluding extruded part of ovi]iositor which is as long as 

 the abdomen. 



Postmarginal vein very slightly developed, much shorter than the stigmal which is not 

 quite half the length of the marginal, the latter a little less than half the length of the long 

 submarginal. Dark metallic purple, the fore wings deeply embrowned from the proximal end of 

 marginal vein to apex, but on oiijiosite sides at the edges there are two small hyaline spots, the 

 cephalic at the end of the jiostmarginal vein, the caudal spot larger. Face ventrad of eyes 

 (which are convergent), scape, face of jn-onotuni, thoracic pleura, propodeum (except laterad) 

 and axilla^, orange yellow. Funicle and pedicel sufl'used with orange. Legs and extruded portion 

 of ovipositor yellowish white, the intermediate femora at tip, the tibia> just below knees purplish, 

 the hind tibiic purplish on each end. Scutum with very fine, dense silvery hairs which form 

 distinct jiilosity. the thorax densely, finely scaly, the scutelhim densely jmnctulate, the propodeum 

 smoother, witli some (but not iiuich) silvery pubescence laterad. Fore wings densely ciliate. 

 Scutelhim with the usual tuft of black hairs. Scape curved, thick; pedicel long-obconie, longer 

 than any of tlie funicle joints of which '2 and 4 are a little the longest. ] and 3 subequal. 4 

 subequal to 2, 5 to 1. (i sliortcst. a little longer than wide, 2 mil qnite a half longer than wide; 

 club barely wider than the filiform funicle. P^ice between the antenme with numerous minute 

 pin-punctures; also some of the latter on the cheeks and on the face along ventral border of the 

 convergent eyes. Frons narrow. Axilla? very slightly separated, .\iitennie ]2-jointed with one 

 ring-joint. Face inflexed. Scrobes semicircular.

 1. ENCYRTUS GILBERTI new species. 



Fcmolc: — Length, 1.28 nun.. 



Orange yellow, the abdomen dorsad |iurplish black. Legs honey yellow; club black; 

 antenna; honey yellow; pedicel washed with [jurplish, funicles .1 and (! silvery white. Pedicel 

 longer than any of the funicle joints of which 1 is longest, somewhat longer than wide, 2 and 3 

 subequal, a little shorter than 1. 4 quadrate, ') and 6 a little wider, a little wider than long. 

 Club rather large. Fore wing with a broad brown baud across it from somewhat less than 

 distal half of submarginal vein to apex of stigmal; also brown along distal fourth from apex, 

 the proximal margin triangular, converging from either side :ind then obtusely prolonged 

 centrally over half way ]iroximad to the first brown stripe; just opposite this apical prolongation 

 an oblique brown streak enters the wing from either margin, obliqued caudo-distad (the cephalic 

 one), ceph.-ilii ilistad (the laudal one) aM<l .apiu'oaches either side toward its apex. At the
