244 MEMOIRS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 
conspicuous only on the antennz. A more or less obscure brownish area in the disk of eaclr 
axilla. Caudal tibia with two. spurs. Antenne with one (yellow) ring-joint, five funicle 
joints, the first the longest but yet only somewhat longer than broad; 2 and 3 subequal, a 
little shorter, subglobose, as long as the pedicel but much larger; remaining two joints a little 
wider than long. 
The male is the same but the abdomen is nearly all black, reddish beneath and very 
small, ovate, its petiole longer. Joints of funicle petiolate and clothed with long hairs, the. 
distal club joint and the petioles of the funicle yellowish. Scape black. A round brown spot 
on each side of the meson just ventrad of the occipital margin of vertex; disk of propodeum 
reddish. 
Habitat: Brisbane, Queensland. Reared from galls. 
Type: No. Hy 3225, Queensland Museum, Brisbane. Now reduced to two females on 
a tag. 
This is a somewhat variable species; the upper apex of the eye may be margined with 
brown. The males vary considerably: All of the venter and sides of abdomen may be yellowish, 
the two spots near the occipital margin of the head confluent, the lateral portions of the axille- 
reddish and the scape yellow; coxe concolorous with legs, sides of thorax yellow. The 
abdominal petiole in this sex may be wholly black or else reddish. 
19. EURYTOMA NIGRELLA new species. Female. 
The same as queenslandensis but the abdomen and scape black, the middle of the sides: 
of the former and along the venter obscurely reddish brown; tip of pedicel and ring-joint 
lemon yellow, the face yellow only beneath the antennal bulbs. Pronotum with a triangular 
yellowish spot in the lateral aspect at cephalic’: margin. Legs pale yellowish except caudal 
coxe. Brisbane, Queensland. From galls with queenslandensis. 
Type: Lost. 
20. EURYTOMA PATRUELIS new species. Female. 
Identical with queenslandensis but the hind coxe are all yellowish (instead of being 
black on each side) and in the pair of median grooves on the propodeum there are three 
fovew, the third (caudal) as long as the other two combined (in queenslandensis the third 
fovea is distinctly shorter than the other two combined). Also the sculpture on the propodeum, 
just Jaterad of the middle and caudo-laterad of the median grooves is finer in this species. 
The umbilicate punctures in all the forms are not confluent, the space between them scaly 
reticulate; also the axilla are all black, the margins of the eyes narrowly yellow. Data as. 
with quadriguttatus. 
The petiole is much longer than wide in H. wantherclla and LE. nelsonia but in patruelis: 
it is somewhat shorter. 
21. EURYTOMA QUADRIGUTTATUS new species. Female. 
The same as the preceding but the lemon yellow on propleurum advances onto the 
pronotum and is plainly visible from above, there are two orange yellow dots in the upper 
occiput mesad and a more or less obscure yellowish spot on propodeum centrally on each wing. 
Propodeum at caudal half on each side of median channel somewhat more distinctly punctulate. 
The males of both species have the abdomen wholly black and the two dots on the 
upper occiput confluent. 
Compared with types of the allied form. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. Reared from galls on forest trees, 
September, 1913 (E. J. Girault). 
Types: No. Hy 3226, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, a pair on a tag with two female 
types of patruelis.
