Female :—Length, 0.60 mm. 
Exactly similar to the following (lautus) but differing in having each lateral margin 
of abdomen black from base to apex of proximal three fourths. Differs from Enecarsia cybele 
in having much narrower fore wings, the marginal stripe of abdomen Jess conspicuous and 
the antennal joints all shorter. 
. From one female taken on grass in forest, April 4, 1914. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 2934, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a slide with type

15. COCCOPHAGUS LAUTUS new species. 
Female :—Length, 0.65 mm. 
Jet black, the abdomen brilliant golden yellow, the antenna and legs a little paler than 
the abdomen; propodeum suffused with yellowish; lateral margin of parapsides and mesal 
margins of eyes yellowish. Wings hyaline, the stigmal vein sessile, directed cephalad. Posterior 
wings not long nor broad, with a line of discal cilia along each margin and a scattered central 
line. Fore wings with about twenty lines of fine discal cilia where broadest. Funicle joints. 
cylindrical, subequal, each about one and two third times longer than wide, 1 a little shorter 
than the others which are subequal to the distal two club joints, the proximal club joint a. 
little shorter than the others. Club barely wider than the funicle, the flagellum filiform or 
nearly. Middle tibial spur slender, not especially long. Marginal fringes of hind wing: 
(caudal margin) somewhat longer than the greatest width of the blade, longer than any of 
the fringes of the fore wing. Pedicel subequal to funicle 1. 
From one female taken by sweeping grass in forest, April 1, 1914. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 2935, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a slide with type

16. COCCOPHAGUS ARGENTEUS new species. 
Female :—Length, 0.65 mm. 
Silvery white, the wings with a more or less obscure dusky long-oval spot in center of 
blade projecting a little distad of venation, the following parts honey yellow—center of vertex,. 
seutum, parapsides and seutellum. The following parts jet black—dorsum of abdomen except- 
ing for three round spots in a triangie, one at apex, the other two opposite, at the lateral 
margin at distal two thirds; center of occiput; and the club except distal half or more of distal. 
joint. Lateral halves of each funicle joint and the axilla dusky. Funicle joints subquadrate, 
smaller than the club joints, subequal to the pedicel. Ocelli in a triangle, the lateral ones: 
away from the eyes. Scutum and scutellum with scattered seta. Hind wings with about six 
lines of fine but not dense discal cilia, all disappearing at apex, the caudal marginal fringes. 
short. Fore wings with a more or less obscure sooty longitudinal area centrally but caudad. 
of middle, extending from proximal third of marginal vein some distance distad of venation 
and coterminous with the discal cilia, the wing naked broadly from apex to venation (excepting. 
from the central extension in the sooty area). There is also a more or less naked area just 
beneath the end of the marginal vein. Stigmal vein sessile. Antenne 9-jointed, with one very, 
short ring-joint. 
From one female taken on a window, January 16, 1914.
