AUSTRALIAN HYMENOPTERA CHALCIDOIDEA, VIII—GIRAULT. 191 
the funicle joints long and slender, 1 nearly twice as long as the pedicel, 2-6 gradually 
shortening, 6 a little longer than the pedicel; club no longer than funicle 1, without a terminal 
spine. 
Habitat: Kuranda, Queensland. Forest (1,500 feet), September 16, 1913 (A. P. Dodd). 
Type: No. Hy 3174, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, a female on a tag, the head and 
hind legs on a slide. 
2. ARTHROLYSIS TRILONGIFASCIATA new species. 
Female :—Length, 3 mm. 
Very similar indeed to flaviventris Girault and Dodd but somewhat more slender and all of 
each leg is golden yellow; the median stripe of abdomen extends distinctly distad of the distal 
ends of the marginal stripes (the distal ends of the three stripes even in the first species) and 
each end of it is about equally distant from base and apex (in the first species, the distal end 
is farther from apex than the proximal is from base). Also, the club is distinctly longer than 
funicle 1; funicles 1-4 subequal, about twice the length of the pedicel; funicle 6 somewhat 
longer than wide. Scape and pedicel golden yellow; rest of antenna black. Mandibles 4- and 
5-dentate. Sculpture coarse, uniform scaly punctation over the entire thorax (closer, denser, the 
punctures small, roundish in flaviventris). Both species blue-black with a saddlelike neck on 
propodeum and with the parapsidal furrows obsolete or nearly. 
Described from one female captured by sweeping in the forest, May 8, 1914. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 3176, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a tag with type 
jluvwwentris; an antenna and a hind leg on a slide. 
3. ARTHROLYSIS MIRIFICUS new species. 
Female :—Similar to flaviventris G. and D. but the marginal stripes of abdomen extend 
from base nearly to apex, the median stripe is correspondingly longer, its apex even with the 
apex of the marginal stripes and a little nearer to apex of abdomen than the proximal 
end is to its base (distinctly the other way round in flaviventris). Also, the three stripes are 
more distinctly broken at each segmental incision. Otherwise similar to the named species. 
Antennal club not seen. f 
Described from one female captured by sweeping in the forest, August 14, 1914. 
. Labitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 3177, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a tag. 
A second female was captured September 20, 1914 by sweeping grass in forest, at 
Capeville (Pentland), Queensland. 
The three species greatly resemble Apirene longifasciata Girault with which they have 
been compared. 
HABRITELLA new genus of Girault and A. P. Dodd. 
Female :—Antennez inserted above the middle of face, 13-jointed, with three ring, three 
club joints; funicle joints not lengthened, club without a terminal spine. Mandibles 4-dentate. 
Antennal scrobes not defined. Head no wider than the thorax, not much wider than long. 
Pronotum short, distinctly separated. Secutum much wider than long, parapsidal furrows half 
complete. Seutellum simple. Axillze widely separated. Propodeum not long, with a short neck; 
median carina absent; lateral carinz distinct, branching in two, one branch running to caudal 
margin mesad, the other to caudal margin laterad. Spiracle small, round; no spiracular sulcus. 
Marginal vein twice as long as the stigmal; postmarginal a little longer than the stigmal, the 
latter with a large knob. Abdomen conic-ovate, nearly straight above, convex beneath; sessile; 
second segment narrowed; third deeply incised at meson of caudal margin, the incision reaching 
back to caudal margin of second segment; 4 longer than 2 and 3 united, occupying over one 
half of the surface; remaining segments short. Hind tibize with two short apical spurs.
