This is a true Go)iafopiis with 5-joiiite(l maxillary palpi, three 

 distinct joints beyond the g-eniculation. 



Hab. I'aramatta, S\(lney, X. S. W. : bred from a Jassid (Koc- 

 bele 2369). 



Ncoi^onaiopiis riticnsis, sp. nov. 



Black, the lower part of face, the mandibles, except the red- 

 dish teeth, and the three basal antennal joints, yellow, the scape 

 darker above. Front legs with the trochanters entirely pale or 

 marked with fuscous, the femora black or dark brown and pale 

 at the tips, tibiae dar'k above, the tarsi pale, yellow or brownish 

 yellow. Middle and hind legs prettily variegated with dark and 

 yellow, the trochanters, tip of femora and middle of tibiae being 

 pale, the tarsi brownish, blacker towards the apex. 



Head very little concave above, the surface not much shin- 

 ing, the microscopic sculpture excessively fine. Whole thorax 

 sparingly clothed with short erect grey hairs; the pronotum 

 more or less shining, the rest of the thorax duller, and densely 

 minutely punctate or shagreened; the propodeum elongate and 

 not at all abruptly raised in the spiracular region. Front tro- 

 chanters unusually short and robust, not with the usual long 

 stalk. Abdomen smooth and shining and very sparsely pilose. 

 Length 3-3.5 ,mm. 



This interesting species in the structure of the trochanters 

 and the shape of the head approaches the genus Pachygonatopus. 



Hab: Suva, Fiji; bred from a small Jassid on grass (Koebele 

 -'378).

 with red teeth, three 'basal antennal joints yellow; the abdomen 

 behind the petiole slightly brownish or pitchy. Legs with the 

 apices of the coxae, the trochanters for the most part, the apical 

 thin part of the femora, except the tips of the iiind ones, yel- 

 low; front tibiae and tarsi testaceous, middle and hind tibiae 

 dark at base and tips and paler 'between, the tarsi fuscous. The 

 superficial appearance o"f this species owing to its black colour 

 and variegated legs is very like that of Ncogo'iiatopiis 7'iticnsis. 



Head deeply concave, and the sur'"ace shining, the third an- 

 temial joint long and very slender, one and a half times as long 

 as the fourth. Pronotum smooth and shining, the rest of the
