Agrees with the description of the genotype but the fore wings are 

 infuscated from the break of the snbmarginal vein distad to apex and the propo- 

 deiim is delicately scaly. Knees and tips of tibiae very narrowly reddish yellow. 

 Marginal fringes of the fore wing a little longer than usual. Proximal half of 

 the scape brownish j^ellow. Pedicel twice longer than wide at apex. Infuscation 

 of fore wing deepest across from the marginal vein. A very short carina cri 

 each side of the median carina of propodeum from caudad. Scutellum with 

 four small bristles. Caudal tibial spur rather long. Body scaly reticulate. 



Described from one female taken from a window, Brooklyn, New South 

 Wales, November, 1914.

 bearing a fore wing, the head and hind legs. 



ENCYRTOMPHALE PARVULICORPUS Girault. 

 One female, forest, Brooklyn, New South Wales, November 10, 1914. Like 

 the description but the parapsidal furrows were only cephalad and short. Sculp- 

 ture very fine, slightly raised scaliness. Axilke oblong, nearly wholly cephalad 

 of the scutellum. Thorax with a short phragma. Ovipositor inserted near base. 

 Tarsal joints short.

Dark metallic green, the hind tibiae, the tarsi except the last joint, tips of 

 middle tibi^ and distal half of cephalic tibiae, pale. Fore wing infuscated under 

 the marginal and stigmal veins, across except disto-caudad. Funicle 3 about 

 two thirds the length of the pedicel, 1 like a ring- joint but wider than the three 

 of those joints, no longer. Club enlarged, conic-ovate. Funicle 2 about as long 

 as the four preceding joints, much smaller than 3 and not more than half its 

 length. Antennse black. Allied with splendoriferella but the legs differently 

 coloured and funicle 1 is shorter, like the ring-joints.

 The face just below the antennfe to the mouth (practically the clypeus) 

 may be yellow as the case of three additional Gordonvale specimens seen. There 

 is a groove far laterad on the scutellum, laterad of the bristles (thus not a 

 lateral groove as understood).
