sulculate entirely, flat. Ocelli remote from the eyes. Frons 

 longer than wide, -with a small tubercle at the base medianly, a 

 little wider apically than the clypeus basally; lora nearly touch- 

 ing the genae apcally; tempora narrow. Tegmina short, with- 

 out appendix; not reaching apex of abdomen, apically rounded, 

 only one subapical cell. 



Female: last segment produced a little triangularly (very 

 obtusely) in the middle; the pale brownish ovipositor is much 

 longer than the elongate pygophor. 



Length 3^ mill. 



Hab. Queensland, Bundaberg (Sept. -Dec, Koebele).

I. iiysias, sp. nov. 



Head i^ale brownish-testaceous; vertex irregularl\- suffused 

 with fuscous; frons with a few concentric curved fuscous lines 

 which are ofteu nuich abbreviated towards the middle of the

 tennae) dark fuscous. Pronotum dark fuscous, yellowish-brown 

 laterally, comparatively thickly, but irregularly .^punctured with 

 yellowish-brown. Tegmina milky hyaline, veins dark fuscous, 

 many of them more or less suffused, especially the crossveins at 

 the apex of the subcostal cell, and the apical veins apically. 

 Many of the cells with a more or less elongate fuscous spot in 

 the middle, the brachial cell with two. Legs testaceous, 

 liind tibiae with blackish spots at the base qf the bristles. 

 Sterna and a'bdomen below mostly dark fuscous. Vertex short, 

 rounded, apically, forming a curve v/ith the eyes which are 

 rather wider than the maximum width of the vertex. Frons 

 longer than wide, tempora very narrow, almost obsolete. Cly- 

 peus as wide basally as the frons apically, constricted a little 

 just apical of the base, widening as much towards the apex.
