■j5i UEMOirxH OF THE QUEENSLAND MVSEUM. 



49. EURYTOMA LONGIPETIOLATA new species. 



Female: — Length, 2.50 iiiui. 



Runs to rulriventris. Scape (except nt tiji), legs except caudal coxie and ventral half 

 of segments 4 and 5 of abdomen, reddish brown. Wings hyaline, the marginal vein somewhat 

 over twice the length of the stigmal, the latter subequal to postmarginal, the venation pale 

 yellowish brown. Funicle 1 somewhat longer tlian wide, longest, a little lefs than half the 

 length of the scape; funicle 5 subglobular. Abdominal petiole longer than usual, distinctly 

 longer than the hind eoxte, about four times longer than wide. .Segment 5 of abdomen 

 dorsad occupying over half the surface. Tegula; very dark. Petiole longitudinally striate, 

 with a spine dorsad at base. Abdomen glabrous except distad of segment 6. Propleurum 

 scaly. Mesoplenrum pnnctulate. Propodeum riigoso-punctate, with a distinct median channel 

 ■with carinated lateral margin and interiorly consisting of wider tlian long foxesB, the proximal 

 with indications of longitudinal divisions. Head and thorax uniformly umbilicately punctate. 

 Pedicel wider than long by a little. 



From two females from the Queensland Museum collections, Brisbane, caught on flowers 

 of BwcTcea, April 22, 1913 (H. Hacker). 



Saiitat: Brisbane, Queensland. 



Type: No. Ey 3S53, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the two specimens on a tag. 



50. EURYTOMA MORDAX new species. 



Female: — Length, 3.2.5 mm. 



Like quinquenotata but the oeellar area is black (transverse black line) and continued 

 caudad at each end down to the occiput, thus the whole forming an inverted IT. The venation 

 is black, the marginal vein longer, jilainly twice the length of the stigmal, the latter short, 

 subequal to the postmarginal ; the short petiole is black and the abdomen has a median black 

 stripe from base to distal three fourths (to apex of segment .5), the stripe narrowing rapidly 

 from base (never broad) forming nodes at apex of segments 3 and 4, very narrow on seg- 

 ment 5; thus the abdomen has no isolated black areas along the meson. Fore wings very 

 obscurely stained. No obscure spots on pronotum. Otherwise similar to qninquenotata 

 (except that the pedicel is black only at base above and funicle 2-5 are longer, only a little 

 shorter than 1, 5 shortest) with which it has been compared (types). Differs from Eurytoma 

 xaniherella in bearing a distinctly shorter petiole, shorter postmarginal vein and longer median 

 stripe on abdomen. Hind tibial spurs double. Funicle 1 three fourths the length of the scape.* 



From one female caught May 4, 1914 in jungle (A. P. Dodd). 



Hahitat: Tweed Heads (Tweed River), New South Wales. 



Type: No. By 3353, Queensland Museum. Brisbane, the sjiecimen on a tag; antenna and 

 a hind leg on a slide with type quinquenotata. 



In this species segment 5 of abdomen is shorter being mure distinctly deeper than long. 



51. EURYTOMA SPES new species. 



Female: — Length, 3 mm. 



Runs to F.arcophiigii and ii'uiripcs but dilVers from botli in h.-iving the sraiie black along 

 distal two thirds (distal half if bulla is included); from sarcophapa in that the median basin 

 of propodeum is not rugulose luit pnnctulate and at immediate base of propodeum there is 

 a pair of rounded fovea; separated from cacli cither by a narrow carina; directly laterad of 

 each of these is a smaller fovea, less rounded. -Vlso the cephalic half of the mesoplenrum .is 

 pnnctulate, the caudal half subfoveate and with a glabrous area just dorsad of middle. 

 From nigripes also in having the basin of propodeum punetnlate. Venation black. TeguliB and 

 cephalic tibia? dark brown. Cephalic halves of segments 4-6 laterad of abdomen sculptured 



♦ Excluding the bulla as always.
