AUSTRALIAN HYMENOPTERA CHALCIDOIDEA, VII.—GIRAULT. 133 
earina between the antenne—and I have also ignored such of his characters as pubescent eyes, 
wing pattern and sculpture. For remarks on the validity of the tribe see elsewhere. The width 
of the frons seems variable but for the present I have used it for a generic character. The 
position of the ocelli is not considered stable enough to be of use. 
GENUS ANAGYRUS Howard. 
1. ANAGYRUS PURPUREUS new species. 
Female :—Length, 1.60 mm., excluding ovipositor. Metallic purple, the abdomen green, 
the legs brownish yellow, the cox concolorous; wings hyaline. Scape and pedicel concolorous, 
the first three funicle joints dusky, the rest yellowish except the distal two club joints which 
are dusky. Head and thorax with a dense scaly sculpture, the axille finer, the seutellum 
longitudinally lined. Abdomen densely finely scaly. Valves of ovipositor black, distinetly but 
shortly exserted (for about a fifth the length of the abdomen). Lateral ocelli not especially 
near the eyes, the marginal vein punctiform, the moderately long stigmal a half longer than 
the postmarginal. Funicle joints more or less subquadrate, the first shorter than the next two 
which are longest, a little longer than wide, the sixth or distal joint wider than long. Body 
flattened. Oblique hairless line on fore wing rather obscure, very narrow. Club rather large. 
Segments of abdomen more or less equal. Second tooth of mandible broadly truncate. Scape 
broadly dilated. Frons moderately narrow. 
Deseribed from one female captured by sweeping miscellaneous vegetation, November 
re ees ee 
Habitat: Bowen, Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 3063, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag, the head 
and a hind leg on a slide. 
2. ANAGYRUS MAZZININI new species, 
Female :—Length, 3.25 mm., excluding ovipositor which is extruded for one third the 
length of abdomen. 
Similar to Coccidoxenus worcesteri Girault with which I have compared it but very much 
more robust, the ovipositor is distinctly extruded, the scape distinctly dilated, with a foliaceous 
expansion ventrad which, however, is not great but distinct and prominent; funicle 2 barely 
shorter than the pedicel and distinctly longer than wide, 1 and 3 each only a little shorter 
than it, funicle 6 a little wider than long. Club fuscous. The fine down on the seutum is a 
little denser in this species, not conspicuous in either. Eyes convergent above in both species, 
the frons narrow in this species, moderately broad in worcesteri. 
Described from one female caught in forest, December 24, 1912. 
Habitat: Capeville (Pentland), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 3064, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a tag with type of 
C. worcesteri; the head on a slide with head of worcester. 
3. ANAGYRUS AURICORPUS new species. 
Female:—Length, 1.20 mm. Short, stout, depressed, broad. 
Pale golden yellow, the eyes pale green, the wings hyaline. rons densely scaly 
punctate, also the scutum and scutellum, the axille and the wide, linear pronotum scaly. 
Axille apparently joined by a piece between them, the mesal ends separated by this piece. 
Scutellum large, flat. Scape dilated distinctly but not greatly. Club two thirds the length of 
the funicle, short, stout; funicle joints wider than long, widening distad, 1 smallest, all a 
little shorter than the short pedicel. Second tooth of mandible broadly truncate. Cheeks about 
ais long as the eyes; frons rather broad, face inflexed. Marginal vein triangular, the stigmal
