wings hyaline, costal vein yellow, marginal, stigmal and postmarginal veins brown-black, the 
latter subpetiolate, ending in a large rounded stigma with an uncus. 
Vertex of head and thorax above clothed with a rufous pubescence, that on the face, 
sides of thorax and metapleura white or silvery white. 
Funicle 5-jointed, the joints fluted and a little wider than long. Sides of thorax and 
parapsides broadly along sutures opaque and coriaceous. Marginal and postmarginal veins. 
about of an equal length but the former stout, the latter acuminate; stigmal vein very 
short, ending in a large rounded stigma as in Megastigmus, with an uncus. Abdomen ovate 
and except segments 6 and 7, smooth, highly polished; the petiole which is hardly longer than 
thick and segments 6 and 7 finely rugulose or shagreened; fourth body segment very long, 
occupying fully half the whole surface of the abdomen. 
The male measures from 2 to 2.4 mm. and agrees with the female except in its antennal 
- and abdominal characters; joints of funicle excised and petiolate at apex, the basal portion 
of the joints with whorled hairs; basal part of first joimt nearly twice as long as thick, basal 
part of the following being quadrate or nearly so; abdomen with petiole four times as long 
as thick, shagreened and with a grooved line down centre; body subglobose, segments 
subequal; hind cox opaque, coriaceous. 
Habitat: Uralla, New South Wales. From galls on Eucalyptus. 
Type: No. 4884, United States National Museum, Washington, D.C., U.S.A. 
7. EURYTOMA BINOTATA Ashmead. Female. 
Length, 3.5 mm. to 5 mm. 
Black, clothed with a whitish pubescence; pronotum with two oblong oval yellow spots, 
one on each anterior angle and both distinctly visible from above; scape of antenna, pedicel 
at apex and legs except coxe and a blotch on the middle of femora above, pale ferruginous; 
rest of antenne and the coxe black. Wings hyaline, venation brown, the marginal vein a 
little longer than the postmarginal; stigmal vein normal, very nearly as long as the 
postmarginal. 
Head and thorax closely umbilicately punctate; funicle joints a little longer than thick; 
abdomen conic-ovate, subsessile, a little longer than head and thorax united, acutely pointed 
at apex, the sides of segments 4 to 7 ciliate with white hairs, the fourth segment and beyond 
very delicately shagreened at sides. 
Habitat: Sydney, New South Wales. From galls on the turpentine tree.

8. EURYTOMA BRACHYSCELIDIS Cameron. Male and female. 
‘« Black, covered with whitish pubescence; trochanters, apex of femora, tibie and tarsi 
pale testaceous, oral region and almost the upper half of the propleure rufo-testaceous, under 
side of flagellum fuscous; the latter densely covered with a microscopic white pile; wings 
hyaline, nervures dark fuscous. The male has the face, clypeus, the lewer orbits and the malar 
Space testaceous. 9, Q, length, 1.5—2.5 mm. 
Stowell, Victoria; bred from coccid (apiomorpha) galls on Hucalyptus sp. (C. Daly). 
Antennz in female short, thick, the second joint twice longer than wide, becoming 
gradually widened towards the apex; scape distinctly narrower than it, the other joints wider 
than it is long, the last conical, the narrowed parts of the joints in the male testaceous; 
the hairs are stiff and longer than the joints. Marginal nervure as long as the postmarginal 
and thicker than it; stigmal shorter than the latter, the lower thickened part semicircular, 
emitting a branch from the apical basal part. Parapsidal furrows shallow but distinct. 
Abdomen smooth and shining, the apical segments fringed with white hair. 
This is probably a variable species. The face in the female may be broadly testaceous 
below. The fourth abdominal segment occupies the greater part of the abdomen. The 
testaceous mark on the pronotum varies in size; it is not visible from above. The tarsi may
