Australian Braconidae in the British Museum. 101 



: . Face finely rugose ; vertex, thorax and median segment smooth 

 and shining; parapsidal furrows shallow. Raised median area of 

 the first tergite finely granulate, with a low median longitudinal 

 carina, the lateral grooves deep. Second tergite rugulose, with a 

 small, smooth, triangular basal area, from the apex of which a 

 carina extends almost to the apical margin; on either side of the 

 basal area is another smooth, elongate area, which is slightly oblique 

 and becomes narrowed and obsolete towards the apex. Second 

 suture crenulate; tergites 3-5 delicately rugose; the apical margin 

 of each slightly raised with a punctured groove before the apex. 

 First abscissa of the cubitus sharply bent near the base.

1. Campyloneurus praeclarus, sp. n. 



$. Rufo-castanea ; capite nigro, orbitis hie illic angustissimc 

 rufo-marginatis, segmentis abdominalibus sexto septimoque, pedi- 

 busque posticis nigris, tarsis posticis, tibiisque tarsisque intermediis 

 ferrugineis; alis pallide fuscis; stigmate flavo, apice costaque late 

 nigris; venis nigris; ventre albido, nigromaculato. 



Long, (i-7 mm.; terebrae long. 3"5— 4 mm. 



Very similar to profugus, but differs in the colon]' of the 

 stigma, which is broadly black on the costa; the terebra 

 is shorter, and tergites 3-5 are shining as in praepotens. 

 The colour of the. intermediate legs is variable. 



Hab. N. Queensland, Mackay (Turner), April. 



The male has the median segment partly black in some 

 specimens. It is possible that this will prove to be a 

 variety of C. profugus, the sculpture of tergites 3-5 and the 

 colour of the stigma showing some tendency to vary. 



5. Campyloneurus praepotens, sp. n. 



$. Rufo-castanea; capite nigro; pedibus intermediis posticisque 

 nigris, rufo-variegatis ; alis pallide fuscis. stigmate flavo, apice 

 extremo nigro, venis fuscis. 



Long. 9 mm.; terebrae long. 9 mm. 



Very similar to C. profugus, but differs in the much 

 longer terebra; in the sculpture of tergites 3-5, which are 

 smooth and shining, punctured only in the ante-apical 

 groove, and in the colour of the apical segments. The
