slightly more strongly than the mesonotum, its apex depressed in the middle, sides bluntly 
rounded. Metanotum with a slightly oblique, straight slope; in centre two keels which slightly 
converge at base, space between them irregularly striated; part on either side reticulated, 
widely at base, more closely and finely at apex, the part becoming gradually narrowed toward 
apex. 
Habitat: Glen Innes, New South Wales. 
Type: Query. 
4. ANTHROCEPHALUS SPILOGASTER Cameron. Female. 
Length, 6 mm. 
Black; basal two abdominal segments, upper half of third, sides, hind cox, trochanters: 
and femora red; wings hyaline, middle of wings fuscous, slightly violaceous, the cloud fainter 
beyond the stigma, which is black like venation; four anterior tarsi rufo-testaceous except 
at base. Temples, pleure, metanotum, and apices of abdominal segments densely covered 
with long, white pubescence; mesonotum and scutellum densely with shorter black pubescence ; 
on tibiw short, white and dense. Frontal depression closely, regularly, transversely striated 
in the centre; sides transversely striated, with a keel on either side and one down center. 
Malar space as long as eyes. Apex of scutellum roundly, broadly incised, lateral edges bluntly 
rounded. Thorax strongly punctured, punctures on mesonotum and scutellum clearly separated. 
Mesopleure, except at base, closely, regularly, longitudinally striated, the strie becoming 
shorter below. Metapleure closely, rugosely reticulated, armed with a stout tooth, which 
is longer than wide at base. Abdomen nearly as long as the head and thorax combined. 
Habitat: Bong Bong, New South Wales. 
Type: Query. 
5. ANTHROCEPHALUS POMONELLZ Cameron. Female. 
Length, 4 mm. 
Black; tegule, legs and basal four abdominal ventral segments red; wings hyaline, 
stigma and nervures black; a cloud at marginal vein extending to stigmal branch, faint at 
the posterior part, which extends to the apex of the anterior third, the dark tinted part 
wider than long, widened on either side at the apex, which is covered inwardly; there is a 
fainter irregular cloud in the centre, at end of postmarginal vein, placed nearer the anterior 
than the posterior margin; lower part of orbits, malar space, metapleure, and the apical 
abdominal segments densely covered with silvery pubescence. Apex of scutellum bluntly, 
triangular bilcbate. Metanotum closely reticulated; an area down its centre, about four times. 
longer than wide, of equal width, but slightly roundly narrowed at base and apex, irregularly 
transversely striated; at base, on either side, a deep crenulated furrow slightly narrowed on 
immer side and bounded on outer by a stout, raised keel; beyond this are two roundly eurved, 
oblique keels, uniting before the metanotum, then forming a small triangular area; the space 
between the two bears seven or eight keels. Mesonotum more widely and strongly punctured 
than pronotum, scutellum than the mesonotum. Propleuree above coarsely, umbilicately 
punctured; below with some stout, irregular keels. Mesopleure with the centre stoutly, 
closely, longitudinally striated; this part at the base, is bordered by a smooth, flat, shining 
keel, which bends shortly above the middle, to middle cox; the space behind this irregularly 
reticulated; apex above rugosely punctured, below smooth, the top part at the apex bordered 
by six fovew in two rows of three each. Metapleure closely, coarsely, umbilicately punctate. 
Abdomen not much longer than thorax, terminal segments opaque, shallowly reticulated. 
Apex of fore femora and tibiew broadly in the middle are black; underside of hind femora 
densely covered with white pubescence. Inner orbits bordered by a stout keel which, at the 
top, runs round the anterior ocellus, this part being narrower than the rest; space between 
keel and eyes is crenulated; hinder ocelli placed outside the keel; top of antennal scape 
reaches to ocelli. Malar space slightly shorter than eyes. 
Mr. J. ©. Crawford (Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus. fig. 41, 271), describes Haltichella stokesi 
bred at Glen Innes, N.S.W., from the codling moth, which agrees very closely in coloration
