80 MEMOIRS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 
GENUS AANASIELLA Girault. 
Head (cephalic aspect) rounded, the facial impression broad but not acutely margined, 
the scrobes forming a triangle; frons reticulated, without punctures; antenne inserted below 
the middle of the face, nearly on a line with the ventral ends of the eyes, the cheeks short. 
Eyes slightly convergent above; lateral ocelli their own diameter distant from the eyes. 
Vertex and mesonotum with similar seulpture, the mesonotum, however, with sparse thimble 
punctures; seutum longer than the scutellum. Axille meeting in an acute point; pronotum 
short. Abdomen short, pointed-triangular, the dorsum flat, without dense pubescence, the 
hypopygium extending sligthly beyond the tip. Strigils present; hind tibial spur single. Inner 
two teeth of mandible subequal, the lateral one a little longer, acute. Fore wing broad, the 
discal ciliation dense, the marginal short; marginal vein punctiform, slightly wider than long, 
the stigmal moderately long, the postmarginal well developed, about two thirds the length 
of the stigmal; oblique hairless line not conspicuous. Antenne 12-jointed with one very short 
; ring-joint, the club 3-jointed; scape clavate, compressed, there being a regular foliaceous 
dilation toward apex but this is not enormous and fan-shaped as in some genera yet distinct 
and foliaceous; flagellum clavate, the funicle joints noticeably widening distad, the club thick 
and oval, wider than but only half the length of the funicle, the latter with 1 and 2 somewhat 
longer than wide, each somewhat shorter than the pedicel. Pubescence of antenna bristly. 
Mesonotum densely reticulate in polygons. Eyes longer than the malar space. Frons 
moderate. 
The genus resembles Anagyrus but the club is truncate at apex. 
1. AXNASIELLA BRACHYSCELIDIS Girault. Female. Genotype. 
Length, 2.10 mm. 
Short, moderately robust. Metallic green, the scutellum neous, the propodeum and 
abdomen purplish black. Seape and pedicel black, the club and venation smoky brown, the 
funicle lemon yellow to brownish but the first joint more or less dusky. Legs ferrugineous 
except proximal half (or nearly) of cephalic femora, all of the concolorous coxe, the dark 
distal tarsal joint and most of hind legs which are concolorous except at the end of each 
tibia and the tarsi. An elongate purplish black spot on cephalic tibia laterad. Fore wings 
with a small, rounded cloud at the base of the stigmal vein. Frons imperial purple. Vertex 
and thorax finely, densely reticulated, the polygonal areas sunk slightly below the surface 
but not like punctures. Funicle 1 longest, 2 and 3 subequal, quadrate, slightly shorter than 1, 
6 twice wider than 1, subequal in width to the widest part of the scape. 
Habitat: Brisbane, Queensland. Associated with the gall of a Brachyscelis. October 23, 
1911. 
Types: No. Hy 2978, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, many females on a card. 
2. HNNASIELLA APIOMORPHZ: new species. 
Female :—Length, 1.50 mm. 
Same as brachyscelidis Girault but smaller, the antenne, intermediate femora and tibie 
and proximal half of cephalic tibie concolorous, the marginal vein a little longer than wide. 
Otherwise identical. Scape a little expanded ventrad in both species. Second tooth of 
mandible broadly truncate. 
Male:—The same but the antenne thick. cylindrical, 10-jointed with a ring-joint, the 
club solid and not greatly longer than the funicle joints which are clothed with not long hairs 
and longer than the small pedicel; antenne dark brown. Scape slightly compressed. Funicle 
joints stout. 
Described from one male, eleven females labelled ‘‘15. Nat. Mus. Victoria. Bred from 
Apiomorpha pileata. Dandenong. J. Kershaw. 2. 1900.’’ 
Habitat: Dandenong, Victoria. 
Types: In the National Museum, Melbourne, the above series of specimens on a card. 
Also 12 females labelled ‘‘16. Nat. Mus. Victoria’’ on a card and 1.14.1900.’’
