284 MEMOIRS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 
5. PHILOTYPESIS IMMACULATA new species. 
Female :—Length, 3.80 mm., excluding ovipositor which is extruded for a length equal 
to that of the body. 
Deep golden yellow, unmarked except the black median line of the tubular part of the 
abdomen; funicle and club black; funicle 1 subequal to the pedicel, a little longer than wide, 
the following segments but very little shorter. Mandibles with a weak, minute third tooth. 
Segment 2 of abdomen longer than 3, its caudal margin with a slight incision at meson. Allied 
with angela. 
From one female caught by sweeping bushes, October 10, 1915 (G. F. Hill). 
Habitat: Port Darwin, Northern Territory. 
Type: No. Hy 3307, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag, the head 
on a slide. 
The species agree with Ashmead’s diagnosis but in longicauda it was noticed that the 
long tubular segment of the abdomen is single and segment 7 apparently, segment 6 not 
tubular and black along the meson only, the V-shaped black marking at base of segment 5. 
Segment 7 is also black along the meson and is tumid toward tip, thus giving an appearance 
of two segments at the tumid place but there is no articulation there, seemingly. 
PARACOLYSTICHUS new genus. 
Female:—In Ashmead’s table of genera (Ashmead, 1904) running to Colystichus Mayr 
but the antennze are inserted in the middle of the face, the joints normal, the abdomen is. 
greatly compressed, seen from the side much convexed above, from dorsal aspect forming a 
line or nearly, the valves of the ovipositor distinctly extruded but barely for more than a sixth 
or seventh of the length of the abdomen which is longer than the rest of the body. Propodeum 
very short at the meson. Mandibles tridentate. Parapsidal furrows delicate, curved laterad. 
Postmarginal and stigmal veins well developed the former distinctly the longer, only about 
a fourth shorter than the marginal. _ Hind tibial spur single, long and slender, as long as the 
first tarsal joint (only one hind leg seen). 
1. PARACOLYSTICHUS COMPRESSIVENTRIS new species. Genotype. 
Female :—lLength, 1.20 mm. 
Dark reddish coppery, the sides of the abdomen dark eneous green, the wings hyaline; 
tibie and tarsi pale yellow except the former dorsad. Antennz wholly black, also the valves: 
of the ovipositor. Thorax finely reticulated. Scape cylindrical, pedicel oval, somewhat longer 
than any of the funicle joints all of which are a little wider than long and subequal. Club 
without a terminal spine, conic ovate, not much enlarged. Abdomen sculptured like the thorax, 
the segments not greatly lengthened, 2, 6 and 7 longest. 
Described from one female captured on a window in a forest clearing, April, 1912. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 3308, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the above specimen on a tag, the 
head and a hind leg on a Slide. 
2. PARACOLYSTICHUS AMPLIPENNIS new species. 
Female :—ULength, 1.30 mm. 
Very similar to compressiventris Girault but a little larger, the scutellum bears scattered 
thimble punctures (only one or two on compressiventris), the antennal joints are a little stouter, 
the scape is yellow at proximal three fourths and the fore and hind wings are very much 
broader, being the characteristic of the species. Thus, the fore wings bear about thirty lines.
