Notes and Corrections on the Australian 
Proctotrypoidea, with Descriptions 
of Forty-five new Species. 
By 
Alan P. Dodd, Gordonvale, near Cairns, North Queensland. 

I have endeavoured in this paper to correct all mistakes 
occurring in my former papers, besides adding to many of the 
original descriptions. The new species described, have been chiefly 
caught by Mr. A. A. Girault and myself in North-East Queens- 
land; one species, Conostigmus flavibasalıs, was received from the 
Queensland Museum, Brisbane; another species, Teelenomus dar- 
winensis, was forwarded by Mr. G. F. Hill, Government Entomolo- 
gist, Northern Territory; and four species, Conostigmus planus, 
Telenomus eetion, Hadronotus rubriscapus, and Scelio orientalıs, 
were kindly given me by my father, Mr. F. P. Dodd, of Kuranda, 
North Queensland. An interesting feature of this paper, is the 
description of several species of Teelenomus closely related to the 
formerly very distinct species, oecleus Dodd. 
The name of the township, Nelson, around which a great deal 
of my collecting has been done, has been changed to Gordonvale. 
In this paper I have retained the name, Nelson, but in future 
papers, I will use the altered name.
