MYOCNEMELLA new genus. 
For description, see antea, p. 195. 
Genus MYIOCNEMA Ashmead. 
1. MYIOCNEMA MARMORATIVENTRIS new species. 
Female:—Length, 0.80 mm. With the habitus of Aphelinus. 
Pale golden yellow, the abdomen dark brown except along the sides and marked witls 
pale golden yellow as follows: A narrow stripe across base with a nipple-like prolongation 
at meson distad, three round marginal spots, the distal one smallest (a dot) and at 
apex of proximal two thirds, a very narrow cross-stripe at apex of proximal three fourths and 
two more distinct cross-stripes following the one at base, both broadly interrupted at the 
meson or subinterrupted; these two stripes join the first and second marginal spots. 
Propodeum dark brown from lateral margin half way to meson, the spiracle appearing like a 
minute yellow dot. Thorax scaly reticulate; without a median sulcus. Club somewhat longer 
than the funicle, subequal to the scape, the pedicel over half the length of the funicle; funicle 
1 ring-like, 2 twice the length of 1, 3 a little wider than 2, 4 largest, somewhat wider than 
long and about a fourth the length of the club. Fore wings as in Aphelinus but without a 
hairless line, the discal ciliation fine, dense, disappearing proximad of the origin of the mar- 
ginal vein; a line of long stout bristles along submarginal vein and two shorter lines of 
similar bristles just caudad of the submarginal vein. Marginal cilia of fore wings short. 
Caudal wing short and broad. Club 1 subquadrate, 2 conical and somewhat longer. Seape a 
little compressed. Mandibles bidentate, the second tooth truncate. Hind tibia dorsad, armed 
with long stiff bristles. Legs normal; middle femur with a long bristle ventro-laterad just 
before knee. Fore wings hyaline, the venation transparent, the marginal vein only a little 
over half the length of the submarginal. Hind femora compressed, the tibial spur single; 
middle tibial spur long and slender Antenne shaped like those of Aphelinus. 
In one antenna the club is solid! 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland, forest, December 9, 1913. 
Type: No. Hy 2959, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a slide. 
GeNuS ANERISTUS Howard. 
This genus differs from Coccophagus Westwood in having the scape short, the flagellum 
strongly flattened, the hind tibiew flattened and with a row of short bristles dorsad. 
1. ANERISTUS FUMOSIPENNIS new species of Girault and A. P. Dodd. 
Female :—Length, 0.80 mm. 
Differs from the generic diagnosis in bearing a short ring-joint; the club is not very well 
differentiated from the funicle. Like Coccophagus Westwood, except the antennal differences 
(the flagellum compressed somewhat, presence of ring-joint) and the flattened apex of hind 
tibie. 
Wholly dark metallic purple, the legs and antenne concolorous, excepting most of 
cephalic tibiew, distal half of intermediate tibia and the tarsi, which are yellowish white. Fore 
wings with a conspicuous smoky-black blotch under the marginal vein, the area large, pro- 
jecting convexly beyond the venation, its proximal margin obliquely truncate from about 
proximal third or more of the marginal vein. Intermediate tibial spur stout, as long as proximal 
joint of intermediate tarsi. Mandibles bidentate, the broad inner tooth emarginate, so that 
a total of three teeth are nearly formed. First funicle joint longest, distinctly longer than
