110 MEMOIRS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 
2. NEASTEROPAUS CINCTIPES new species. 
Female: Length, 0.80 mm., excluding the ovipositor. 
Dark metallic coppery, the scutum dark blue; knees, tips of tibie and tarsi pale 
yellowish; middle tibiw white with a black band just below knee. Thorax scaly. Funicle 
yellowish, rest of antenne black. Differs from the genotype in coloration and as follows: 
The wings are wholly hyaline, the venation paler, the hairless line is bounded by but a single 
line of cilia proximad (excluding several cilia in a second line); the third tooth of mandible 
is obtuse not truncate; and the club is broader. Also, funicles 1-3 are longer, each only a 
a little wider than long, 3 shortest of them. Otherwise about the same. 
Described from one female caught at 2,000 feet, June 3, 1913 in forest (A. P. Dodd). 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 3034, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, head, fore wing and hind tibiew on 
a slide with slide type of Hexencyrtus albiclava Girault. Body of type accidentally destroyed. 
PARAINASOMYIA new genus. 
1. PARZNASOMYIA ORRO new species. 
Differs from Hnasiella in having the club conic-ovate, the ovipositor extruded and the 
axille separated. 
Female :—Length, 1.30 mm., exeluding the ovipositor which is extruded for a fourth the 
length of the abdomen. 
Dark metallic purple, the apex of scutellum and abdomen metallic green, the wings 
hyaline; venation yellowish brown. Apex of valves of ovipositor, tips of tibie (more broadly 
in middle legs), knees and tarsi white. Funicle suffused with yellowish. Scutum and axille 
very finely, densely, polygonally scaly, the latter distinctly separated for some little distance. 
Scutellum scaly, the scaliness with a distinct longitudinal trend. Scutellum reaching base of 
abdomen, the latter scaly. Scutum with scattered obscure setigerous punctures, the pubescence 
moderate, soft normal. Abdomen conic-ovate, inclined upward at apex, as long as the thorax. 
Scape with a slight but distinct foliaceous expansion toward apex; a little longer than the club, 
the latter somewhat wider than the funicle and a little over half its length. Funicles 1-3 
subequal to each other and to the pedicel but 3 wider, 1 a little over twice longer than wide ; 
funicle 4 a little shorter than 3, 5 still shorter and wider, 6 barely longer than wide. Ring-joint 
present. Marginal vein punctiform, the postmarginal subequal to it, the stigmal normal, thrice 
the length of the marginal. Hairless line of fore wing with only one distinct line of cilia 
proximad of it. Fore wings broad. Hind tibial spurs double. Mandibles with the two inner 
teeth shorter than the outer, not long. Frons moderately narrow. Face deeply inflexed, the 
frons not prominent. 
From one female caught in forest, January 7, 1913. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 3035, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a tag; head, fore 
wing and hind tibie with slide type of Cerchysiella nigrella Girault. . 
Many specimens were found later which had been reared from oval cecidomyiid galls on 
Melaleuca, Gordonvale, April, 1913 (A. P. Dodd). A few males were present. In this sex the 
frons is somewhat broader, the antenne yellow except scape and pedicel, the club solid, the 
funicle and club clothed with long scraggly hairs which are not in distinct whorls. Also, the 
scape is shorter and more dilated, the funicle joints longer than wide but shortening distad, 
the pedicel subglobular, wider than long. The face is metallic green in the male. In one 
female specimen, there was a distinct carina at meson of base of scutelium but the axillee 
were distinctly separated as in the other specimens!
