98 MEMOIRS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 
NEOCLADELLA new genus. 
Female :—Form elongate, the abdomen conic-ovate, a little produced at apex, longer than 
the rest of the body, the ovipositor valves stout, prominent, extruded a little. Frons rather 
broad; mandibles with three short obtuse teeth but the third is wider, obliquely truncate but 
not very broad. Fourth joint of maxillary palpi nearly as long as the others combined, stouter 
also. Marginal vein barely longer than wide, thick, as long as the stigmal and more so than the 
postmarginal which is barely developed. Hind legs flattened (except the tarsi), broad, the 
tibial spurs short, double. Antenne inserted below the middle of the inflexed face, the scape 
very short, broadly dilated for its entire length, somewhat longer than wide; pedicel flat, a 
little longer than wide; funicle with the joints wider than long, the first much the shortest, 
combined somewhat longer than the club which is ovate, wider than the funicle, 3-jointed, the 
ring-joint absent. Axillz distinctly a little separated. 
1. NEOCLADELLA COMPRESSIPES new species. Genotype. 
Female :—Length, 1.85 mm. 
Dark metallic blue, the scutellum and abdomen purple, the wings hyaline; tarsi white. 
Thorax densely, finely, polygonally scaly, the axille finely, transversely so. Pedicel longer than 
any of the funicle joints of which 2 to 6 are subequal, distinctly wider than long, 1 much wider 
than long, only about a third the length of the others. Club much longer than the scape, the 
latter distinctly longer than the pedicel. Hairless line of fore wing with two lines of coarser 
discal cilia along its proximal border and with two shorter lines of cilia somewhat farther 
proximad of these, the four lines more or less joined caudad. Discal cilia of fore wing fine, 
dense, distinct, the marginal fringes very short. 
From one female caught in forest, April 14, 1913 (A. P. Dodd). 
Habitat: Cloneurry, Queensland. 
Tupe: No. Hy 3012, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag; head, fore 
wing and a caudal leg on a slide. 
ACHALCERINYS new genus. 
1, ACHALCERINYS TRICLAVATA uew species. Genotype. 
Female :—Length, 0.65 mm. 
Agrees with the description of the genotype of Chalcerinys except that the distal two 
thirds of abdomen is brownish yellow in all that part distad of the spiracles, the legs and 
antenne pale yellow. The abdomen is somewhat longer than the rest of the body, conic-ovate. 
The marginal vein is linear and a little over twice longer than wide, the stigmal slightly shorter 
than it, the postmarginal absent. The fore wings are more regular in shape, slenderer, with 
parallel margins, shaped as in Aphelinus, their discal ciliation fine and dense, the hairless line 
complete. The antenne differ in that funicle 6 is plainly the longest joint of the funicle, being 
a little longer than wide, twice the length of the preceding joint; funicle 1 small, subglobular, 
2 and 3 subequal, smallest, wider than long; 4 a little longer than 3, 5 distinetly longer than 4, 
a little wider than long. Funicle gradually widening, the club still wider, three fourths the 
length of the funicle or more. Pedicel a little longer than funicle 6. Antenne inserted some- 
what below the middle of the face. Axille distinctly separated but not much so. Frons 
moderate. Cheeks distinctly longer than the eyes. Mandibular teeth equal, acute. The marginal 
vein is plainly longer than wide. 
From one female caught April 18, 1912 in the forest. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 3013, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a slide.
