4. TETRASTICHELLA TRICOLOR new species. 



Female: — Length, 1 nun. 



Dark brown, the legs (except most of hind coxa) and scape pale yellow; lower half 

 Oj lace and ventral margin of occiput lemon yellow; abdomen golden yellow, bearing four 

 cross-stripes of fuscous beginning a little distad of proximal third; the fust three of these 

 stripes are so close together ami so much diffused as to form what appears to be one broad 

 fuscous stripe across the abdomen at about middle; the fourth stripe is midway between 

 apex and the third stripe (or distal margin of the broad stripe). Propodeum with a median 

 carina and no others, scaly reticulate. Stigma! vein long, the postmarginal absent. Wings 

 hyaline. Second two ring-joints extremely short, hidden between the first and funicle 1. 

 Pedicel and funicle joints subequal, the funicle joints subquadrate or else slightly longer 

 than wide. Mandibles tridentate. 



From one female reared from miscellaneous galls on Eucalyptus, November, 1 91 2. 



Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 



Type: No. Hy26S5, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a slide. 



Genus APROSTOCEKELLA Girault. 

 1. APROSTOCERELLA KELLOGGI Girault. 



Length, 1.35 mm. Funicle 1 slightly shorter than the pedicel, slightly longer than 2 

 or 3. Propodeum short, with a median carina. The type was captured by sweeping along a 

 jungle path and consists of a female on a tag and a slide with the head. The abdomen 

 appears to have but three cross-stripes. Type re-examined. 



2. APROSTOCERELLA 10 Girault. 



A female, type locality, jungle, June 29. This specimen was metallic purple. Propodeum 

 without lateral carina*, the median carina; complete. Scape more or less dusky. First ring- 

 joint much the longest. 



3. APROSTOCERELLA FLAVA Girault. 

 I have verified the median grooved line of scutum for the type female. 



4. APROSTOCERELLA FULGENS new species. 



Female: — Length, 1.80 mm. 



Brilliant golden yellow, the broad lore wings hyaline; face of pronotum, cephalic 

 margin of propodeum and three cross-stripes on abdomen jet black; first cross-stripe of abdomen 

 at apex of about proximal third, narrow, widely interrupted at the meson, the second broader, 

 complete, the third abbreviated laterad. A minute marginal dot precedes the first cross-stripe. 

 Tip of abdomen and ovipositor concolorous. Funicle and club dusky black; scape and pedicel 

 concolorous. The latter dusky at base above; three distal ring- joints extremely short, first 

 long; pedicel obconic, subequal to funicle 2 which is longest, 1 shortest, barely longer than 

 (vide, 3 intermediate between 1 and 2; club with a short terminal spine which is distinct. 

 Mandibles tridentate. Club two thirds or more the length of the funicle. Propodeum dusky 

 and short at the meson, with a distinct median carina there which forks at apex, the lateral 

 carina absent, the spiracle rather large, round-oval.
