212 MEMOIBS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 



EURYISCHIA SHAKESPEAREI Girault. 



This is a syuonym of Myiocnema comperei Ashmead, the types of which 

 I have seen. In antea, Myiocnema pallida Ashmead (Howard), is written once 

 for comperei; the name pallida has no standing in nomenclature. The type 

 number of comperei in the U.S.N.M. is really 5342 and not 5442 as on the 

 specimens and as published. The species thus occurs as far south as Brisbane 

 on the east coast and I have seen four females in the United States National 

 ^Museum which were reared from Dactylopius vastata at Swan River, West 

 Australia. I have specimens also from Java (van der Goot) and Koebele reared 

 it from males of Kermes acacia. Maskell on Acacia at Sydney, N. S. Wales,. 

 December 21, 1899 (I have seen these specimens). 



EURYISCHOMYIA FASCIATA new species. 



Fem/ile: — Length, 0.90 mm. 

 . Honey yellow, the wings hyaline; cephalic and caudal margins of the 

 propodeum narrowly and three distinct cross-stripes on the abdomen, black, the 

 first cross-stripe at apex of proximal third or not quite, the third longest, some 

 distance before the apex, all complete and tolerably broad. Venation yellow. 

 Wings as in Euryiscliia; under the submarginal vein proximad of the distinct 

 caudal projection which bears two short set^, a number (about three rows, caudo- 

 cephalad) of short, stiff bristles, shorter than those from the submarginal vein, 

 much coarser than the very fine discal ciliation which terminates before the base 

 of the marginal vein. Scutum with scattered, short, black setre cephalad. Post- 

 marginal vein longer than the long, slender stigmal, the latter over half the 

 length of the marginal. Caudal tibial spur single, slender. Scape compressed, 

 the pedicel somewhat longer than wide at apex, much longer than funicle 3 which 

 is longest; all funicle joints wider than long. Antennae capitate, the club longer 

 than the funicle. Scutellum with four bristles. One ring-joint distinct. Hind 

 tibiae with stiff bristles dorsad. 



Described from one female from Perth, West Australia (G. Compere. 837.) 



Type: Catalogue No. 19679, U.S.N.M., the foredescribed specimen plus a 

 slide bearing an antenna, hind leg and fore wung.

EPICHRYSOATOMUS new genus. 



Female: — In my table of entedonine genera runs to Chrysoatomoides 

 Girault but differs in that the propodeum bears a pair of median carinas (dis- 

 tinctly separated) which run to the base of a short, distinct neck; and a semi- 

 circular lateral carina distad, its mesal end from the apex of the neck laterad,
