XXI.— On the Hymenoptera collected in New Caledonia by 
P. D, Montague in 1914. By Rowxanv E. Turner, 
F.ZS., F.ES. 
THE small collection on which this paper is founded was 
made by the late P. D. Montague in New Caledonia in the 
year 1914. The types are in the British Museum. <A few 
of the species show a relationship to the Queensland fauna, 
but absolutely no connection with New Zealand. Of the 
twenty-eight species noticed, three are undoubtedly recent 
importations ; it is remarkable that none of these have so far 
been recorded from Australia. Only two other Hymenoptera 
were included in Mr. Montague’s collection, both of them 
belonging to the Chalcidide, each represented by a single 
specimen, one in poor condition, the other belonging to the 
genus Podagrion.
