26. EUPELMUS MULTICOLOR new species. 
Female: Length, 2.70 mm., excluding extruded portion of ovipositor which is three 
fourths the length of the abdomen. Abdomen intermediate between Hupelmus and Anastatus 
but more like the former. 
Metallic purple green, the fore wing deeply embrowned from the bend of the sub- 
marginal vein distad to apex but distinctly clearer some distance proximad of the apex; 
pronotum, except lateral margins, scape, legs, ventral face, caudal three fourths of meso- 
pleurum, a line down latero-dorsal aspect of thorax above the tegula, axille and cephalic two 
thirds of scutellum rich reddish brown. Fore wings infuscated above immediate base. 
Proximal two thirds of distal half ‘of ovipositor white, distal third of the half black, proximal 
half dusky. Proximal third of abdomen silvery white; also tarsi of middle legs (except the distal 
black joint) and proximal portion of the proximal joint of each of the other tarsi. Front 
and hind femora and tibiw rather strongly compressed, the middle tibiz with the comblike 
teeth white. Hind tibize with one spur. Pedicel somewhat longer than funicle 4 which is 
longest, 1 a little longer than wide, 7 and 8 quadrate, two thirds the length of 4, longer than 1; 
scape slender, antenne inserted near the clypeus, distinctly below the long eyes which converge, 
the vertex narrow, the scrobes short, semicircular, not reaching to middle of the face. Axille 
distinctly separated, together with the scutellum densely finely punctate. Scutum and abdomen 
finely scaly but distad the former glabrous, the cephalic raised, triangular piece sculptured 
Tike the scutellum; pronotum finely scaly, also the head. Caudal margins of first two or three 
abdominal segments slightly incised at meson. 
From one female caught in forest, January 4, 1914. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland.

27. EUPELMUS CLAUDUS new species. 
Female :—Length, 2.60 mm., excluding ovipositor, which is extruded for a length 
equal to half that of, the abdomen. 
Varicolored. Very deep orange yellow, the eyes greenish, the second segment of 
abdomen (or proximal fourth or somewhat more), coxe, distal third of scape, distal three 
fourths of pedicel, funicle joints 1 to 6, articulations of the legs, tips of tibia and the tarsi 
silvery white; rest of abdomen honey yellow, the silvery white followed by three cross-stripes 
of darker yellow, close together; middle of silvery white of abdomen with a rather broad 
dusky black cross-stripe which is incised at meson of caudal margin. Distal two funicle joints 
and club jet black. Proximal two thirds of scape yellow, the distal margin of the yellow dusky 
black and oblique. Distal edge at meson and caudo-lateral portions of propodeum and the scutum 
(between the ‘‘ parapsidal furrows ’’ and caudad of the raised triangular piece, the marking 
longer than wide) metallic green. Somewhat over proximal third and the immediate tip of 
extruded part of valves of ovipositor black, the intermediate portion yellowish white. Legs
