130 MEMOIRS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 
4, EUCOMYS ARGENTISCAPUS new species. 
Female :—Length, 1.80 mm. 
Similar to aurantifasciata but differs in that the caudal margin of scutum is narrowly 
orange yellow and the narrow stripe across cephalic scutum is a little narrower. Also the 
axille are purple except laterad and the immediate base of scutellum at meson. First and 
last pairs of coxe, cephalic femora except along dorsal and ventral edges rather broadly and 
distal three fourths of lateral aspects of middle femora, silvery white; also a spot ventrad at 
tip of caudal femur; rest of legs purple except tips of middle tibia and middle tarsi which 
are reddish brown and other tarsi which are silvery white (joints 2-4). Occiput with a central 
purple V and a purple semicircle ventrad of it. Caudal edges of cheeks from mouth, purple. 
Head with scattered punctures. Antenne differ from those of argenticoxa in that the pedicel 
is-distinctly not twice longer than broad at apex; the caudal tarsus in that the distal joint 
is purple not white; and the fore wing not greatly. 
From one female caught June 3, 1914, in jungle (A. P. Dodd). 
Habitat: Grafton, New South Wales. 
Type: No. Hy 3055, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a tag with tag type 
of aurantifasciata; head, a fore wing and a hind tarsus with slide type of HEncyrtus spinozat 
Girault. 
5. EUCOMYS PROSERPINENSIS new species. 
Female :—lLength, 1.75 mm. 
Similar to argenticoxa Girault but the pronotum is orange except narrowly along caudal 
margins and the scutum bears a conico-triangular purple marking from cephalic margin to 
apex, at base this marking as wide as the scutum but narrowing to a point at apex. The 
propodeum is washed with purple and also the distal part of the mesopleurum. Cephalic 
legs mostly all pale. Otherwise the same or nearly, but the pedicel is purple only at proximal 
three fourths dorsad, the scape pale yellow except above at immediate tip and the sete on the 
ventral cheeks much shorter and less conspicuous. The fore wings are brown not black. 
From two females caught by sweeping in forest near a cultivated area, November 3, 1912. 
Habitat: Proserpine, Queensland. 
Types: No. Hy 3056, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the two specimens on a tag; head, 
a fore wing, hind and cephalic tibia on slide with type Hneyrtus newcombi. 
6. EUCOMYS HORTENSIS new species, 
Female :—Length, 1.55 mm. 
Orange yellow, the following parts metallic purple: Occiput, frons, clypeus, cheeks 
beneath the eyes, last two (from mesal aspect) funicle joints and the club; a large peltate area 
center of scutum from cephalic margin nearly to apex (whose lateral margins are < -shaped 
and whose caudal margins oblique to meson) and a little longer than wide, widest at cephalic 
margin of scutum, next so just before the markings caudal end; caudal margin of each axilla 
centrally, base of scutellum between the axille, abdomen, propodeum; middle legs dorsad on 
each side of knee, middle coxe, hind femora dorsad, hind tibize except ventrad, mesopleurum 
except cephalic end, thoracic venter mostly, hind knees and hind tarsi at immediate base. 
The following parts silvery white—first and last pairs of coxe, cephalic femora except above 
at tip, all of middle femora except at each end, caudal tarsi. Differs from proserpinensis notably 
in the different shape of the marking on the scutum which in that species is conical with 
regularly curved lateral margins and extending the whole length of the scutum. Both species
