Synonymy. — The above synonymy has already been pub- 

 lished (see Hardy, 1917), with the exception of Acrodes 

 fumatus, Froggatt. Mr. Froggatt informs me that Acrodes 

 is a misprint for Oncodes; Oncodes fumatus was used by 

 Erichson for a European species, and it is unlikely that the 

 Australian species is identical with it. Mr. Froggatt's de- 

 scription conforms to that of a male, and specimens in the 

 Agricultural Department under his name are females. 



Genus Leucopsina, Westwood. 

 Leucopsina, Westwood, Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond., 1876, p. 510.. 

 Characters. — The eyes are bare; the antennas are long, 

 three jointed and without a terminal style, they are situated 

 high up on the head, but are separated from the ocelli by 

 the contiguous eyes. The face is linear, and the proboscis 

 long. The wings are normal in shape, and have a rather 

 complex and complete venation. The abdomen is elongate 

 and club-form. 



Type. — L. odyneroides, Westwood . . . . Australia.
