220 “MEMOIRS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 
the club solid or single, the pedicel and second funicle joint elongate, the scape very long, 
dilated slightly toward tip. Scutellum terminating in a bidentate plate. Abdomen conic-ovate, 
its body longer than the head and thorax combined, as in Epistenia but noncarinated and the 
last segment is produced into a slender stylus which is nearly as long as the body of the 
abdomen; also, the valves of the ovipositor are longly exserted, much beyond the stylus above 
them. Hind cox swollen, nearly as long as the femora, strongly flattened inwardly, the 
enlarged femora practically unarmed beneath. Front femora swollen but simple. Propodeum 
short, the spiracle reniform, no median carina, the posterior margins of each wing or ¢allus, 
hairy. Segments 2 and 6 of abdomen longest. Postmarginal vein elongate, subequal to 
marginal, the stigmal short. 
Metallic purplish, the fore wings irregularly stained; the legs blood red except the 
-concolorous coxw. Antenne black or nearly, the first funicle joint short, a little wider than 
long, the second abruptly much longer, the fifth subequal to the club; 7 and 8 subequal, 
longer than wide, shortest after 1 but distinctly longer than it. Thorax shagreened-punctate, 
also the head; a long, triangular mesal portion of each parapside, finely transversely striated. 
Ocelli in an equilateral triangle. Eyes naked. Joints 2-4 of funicle slightly reddish. Knees 
and tibiz more or less metallic. 
Described from one female, minutien-mounted, received from the National Museum, 
Melbourne, and labelled ‘‘ 46’’ and ‘‘ Gippld. 296.’ 
Habitat: West Australia. 
Type: In the National Museum, Melbourne, the above specimen, the antennz on a slide. 
This genus apparently differs from Agamerion Haliday in bearing a stylate abdomen 
and the exserted ovipositor; also in lacking the ring-joint; the club is solid. Differs from 
Calosetroides in bearing one more antennal joint, a stylate abdomen and so forth. The first 
funicle joint is often ring-like. 
2. AGAMERIONELLA BREVISTYLUS new species. 
Female :—Length, 7.50 mm., excluding stylus and the ovipositor which is exserted for a 
little over a third the length of the abdomen. 
Brilliant metallic purple, the legs (except coxw and hind femur) blood red; also joints 
2-6 of the funicle. Front femora swollen, deeply excised beneath at tip. Plate at apex 
of sceutellum entire. Stylus short, about a fourth the length of the abdomen. Fore wings 
with a large blotch appended from the stigmal vein and an oblique cross dash caudad from 
the bend of the submarginal vein, separated from an oblique, longitudinal dash caudad; 
postmarginal vein somewhat shorter than the marginal, elongate. Head and thorax (excluding 
propodeum) uniformly seulptured. First funicle joint wider, the distal two longer, than in 
locustiformis. Otherwise agreeing with the named species. 
Described from one female minutien-mounted, received from the National Museum at 
Melbourne and labelled ‘‘50. Cunbower.’’ 
Habitat: Victoria? 
Type: In the National Museum, Melbourne, the above specimen and a slide with the 
antenne. 
3. AGAMERIONELLA SANGUINIPES new species. 
Female :—Length, 7.20 mm., excluding stylus and exserted portions of ovipositor. 
Almost exactly similar to locustiformis but distinctly smaller and the valves of the 
ovipositor are exserted for a length distinctly less than that of the abdomen (in the other 
species the exserted portion is a little longer than the abdomen) ; the stylus is also shorter but 
longer in proportion to the length of the exserted portion of the valves of the ovipositor. 
The spots at apex of stigmal and bend of submarginal veins are longer and more distinct
