the head (cephalic aspect) rounded, the frons moderately broad, the antenne inserted distinctly 
below the middle, 10-jointed, the club 3-jointed, large and ovate, the divisions faint, the region 
longer than the funicle whose joints, except the first, are transverse; one short ring-joint. 
Pedicel normal, but much longer than any of the funicle joints. Scape moderately dilated, 
yather short. Scutellum simple; axille meeting or nearly, transverse-cuneate. Middle tibial 
spur slender, long. Hind tibial spurs single, small. Abdomen as long as the thorax, the 
ovipositor short, inserted at distal third, not exserted. Metapleurum bare. Legs slender.

1, ENCYRTOMYIA ALBIFLAGELLUM new species. Genotype. 
Female :—Length, 0.50 mm. 
Dark metallic green, the wings hyaline. Funicle, club, knees, tibiae (except proximal

concolorous; tip of pedicel and scape pale. Scutum sealy but with scattered minute setigerous 
punctures; seutellum apparently very» finely longitudinally lineolated. Head very finely 
sculptured. Funicle 4 wider than long, twice the length of 3 which is subequal to 2, 1 a little 
longer than wide, shorter than the pedicel, the ring-joint very minute. Discal ciliation proximad 
of hairless line sparse (four short lines) and coarser than the main ciliation; hind wings 
densely ciliate diseally. 
From one female taken in jungle, June 7, 1914. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland.

mediate femora are concolorous centrally, the cephalic legs like the hind iegs. Also the antenna 
differs in that funicle 1 is subquadrate and the following joints all transverse and subequal, 
ring-like. The scape is metallic except at tip, the pedicel wholly metallic; rest of antenne 
white. Mandibles truneate, unarmed. Oblique hairless line present.
