2. ATOPOSOMA ATOPOSOMOIDES new species. 
Female :—Length, 1.20 mm. 
Honey yellow, the fore wings with a small, dusky substigmal spot. The following metallie 
ereen markings: Three cross-stripes on face, the dorsal two broken, the ventral one complete, 
passing under the eyes over to the occiput and along the latero-occipital margin of eye for over 
half way then looping around to ventral apex of occiput; a reciprocal loop on each side of 
meson of occiput, dorsal half; ocellar area (connected narrowiy with the eyes along its 
cephalic margin); dorsal edge of scape except at each end; dorsal pedicel except at tip; a 
median and dorso-lateral line down pronotum, the median stripe thickened, cuneate, the others 
narrow; scutum except lateral margins which are convex yellow lines; parapsides; a narrow 
line down propleurum and down mesopleurum from pronotum to about fore wings; scutellum 
between the grooves; propodeum; a bullet-shaped marking from cephalic end of each axilla 
centrally; disk of the postscutellum; side of cephalic coxe at base; most of caudal coxe; 
tip of ovipositor and a minute dot at apex of abdomen dorsad; six cross-stripes on abdomen, 
the first three about in the middle of proximal half, joined along the meson, the third stoutest, 
the first joined along the meson to base of abdomen, each curved a little on each side; stripes 
4 and 5 at about proximal two thirds, 5 joined along the meson to 4 and to 6, the latter 
a little before tip; these stripes block out five (a total of 10) transverse marginal spots of 
yellow of which the first four are along the proximal half, the first and fourth large, ovate, 
2 and 3 very much smaller, 5 subequal to 4 and just proximad of stripe 6. Middle of hind 
femur dusky black; a narrow, dusky band a short distance ventrad of caudal knees and a‘less 
distinct one before tip; middle femur and the middle tibia just below knee, faintly dusky; 
distal tarsal joints jet. 
Habitat: Capeville (Pentland), Queensland. Forest, September 29, 1914. 
Type: No. Hy 3447, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female in alcohol with type 
unguttatipes. 
GENUS GROTIUSELLA Girault. 
1. GROTIUSELLA MULTIGUTTATA new species. 
Female :—Length, 1.20 mm. 
Dark metallic blue-green, the wings hyaline (stigmal knob black), the legs (except 
most of each coxa, caudal femora and caudal tibiew, the latter two dusky) and head pale 
yellow. Ocellar area, a line of three spots down the face along the eyes and a cross-stripe 
on face below the antenne and ending at ventral end of eyes, dark metallic blue. The 
following pale golden yellow body markings: On abdomen along each margin from base 
(dorso-laterad), five pairs of dots (a total of ten on cach margin), the first pair smallest, the 
mesal of the last two pairs abruptly larger, transverse spots; caudad of these pairs, a round spot 
(between the last pair and apex) in a line longitudinally with the mesal ones of the pairs; 
caudal margin of pronotum broadly, parapsidal furrows (a complete yellow line along their 
positions but broken near cephalic end), lateral and cephalic margins of scutellum and lateral 
inargins of postscutellum. Seape white, broadly black at tip; rest of antenna black. Occiput 
metallic. The mesal of the fourth pairs of marginal dots of abdomen is much wider than 
long and the two (each side’s) are barely separated at the meson; those of the fifth pairs 
are distinctly, more widely separated. A small yellow spot on propleurum. Funicle 1 largest, 
slightly longer than wide. The distal two dots on abdomen are round, one on each side of meson. 
Habitat: Capeville (Pentland), Queensland. Forest, September 8, 1914. 
Type: No. Hy 3448, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female in alcohol with type 
Atoposoma unguttatipes.
