AUSTRALIAN HYMENOPTERA CHALCIDOIDEA, XIV.—GIRAULT. 347 
with the species described. My species, however, is not a Haltichella, which genus has the hind 
femora armed with about twelve small teeth. A. pomonelle is not unlike A. carpocapse; but 
it is larger, has entirely black antenne, and the lobes on the apex of the scutellum more 
distinct, and the base of the metanotum has a crenulated lateral border at the base. 
Habitat: Narara, New South Wales. 
Types: Not known. 
TrisE CHALCITELLINI. 
GENUS CHALCITELLA Westwood. 
1. CHALCITELLA PICEIVENTRIS Cameron. Male. 
Length, 3 mm. 
Black; antennal scape and four front legs rufo-testaceous, hind legs and tegule of a 
deeper, darker rufous color, the middle of the femora broadly black, sides and ventral surface 
of dilated abdominal segments piceous red; wings hyaline, iridescent nervures pale testaceous, 
costal nervures paler at the apex. Vertex weakly punctured laterally, center smooth, sides 
of front more strongly punctured, occiput smooth and shining. Pro- and mesonotum and 
scutellum strongly punctured, apex of mesonotum smooth at sides. Flat metanotum is strongly 
aciculated; two keels, not very clearly defined, down the middle; on either side are two pairs 
of not clearly defined oblique keels. Pro- and mesopleure irregularly punctured, the apical 
upper third of the latter smooth, the lower part finely, closely striated. Metapleure regularly 
reticulated. Abdominal petiole one half the length of thorax and longer than the rest of the 
abdomen. Two keels on top, and a stout one down middle of sides. Hight black teeth on 
hind femora, four basal larger and more widely separated than apical. 
Habitat: Mittagong, New South Wales. 
Type: Not known. 
2. CHALCITELLA AUSTRALIENSIS Girault. Female. 
Length, 2.75 mm. 
Black; abdomen except petiole and above centrally, dark reddish; posterior femur also 
dark reddish except a large black blotch in center of ventral margin (lateral aspect); tegule, 
all of other legs and the hind tibiwe and tarsi dark red; also scape, pedicel and one or two 
funicle joints. Wings subhyaline. Umbilicately punctate but not densely, smooth between the 
punctures. Propodeum with median carinz bounding sulci, the latter crossed by ridges. 
Funicle joints enlarging distad; pedicel short, cup-shaped. Funicle 7-jointed, the club 2- or 
3-jointed. Hind femur ventrad with eight teeth, all large except the minute last one. Hind 
tibiez simple. Postmarginal and stigmal veins absent. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. Forest. 
Type: No. Hy 3415, Queensland Museum, Brisbane. Tag and a slide. 
Genus NEOANACRYPTUS Girault. 
Like Anacryptus Kirby but the posterior femur beneath with seven large teeth and 
greatly swollen as normal for the family. Antenne 11-jointed, with a minute ring-joint which 
is not as wide as funicle. Abdominal petiole as long as the posterior coxe. Postmarginal and 
stigmal veins absent. Tooth on hind tibiz below knees large. Genotype re-examined. 
1. NEOANACRYPTUS PETIOLATUS Girault. Female. 
Length, 2.50 mm. 
Black, umbilicately punctate, including the propodeum; scape yellowish brown, the 
antenne otherwise black; abdomen yellow-brown except above, its long petiole black and 
longitudinally carinate; tegule, trochanters and rest of legs except the coxe and much of
