occupying 0-22 tlio total length of head, finely facetted; 

 ocelli rather small, posterior pair widely separated, contiguous 

 to inner margins of eyes near their lower fourth. Postocular 

 bristles blunt, about as long as the length of an eye ; the pair 

 just behind posterior ocelli minuto (as large as the postocular 

 bristles in C. carhonarius). Antennas about 135 times as 

 long as the head, segments 3 to 6 roughly clavate ; 3 but 

 Blightly longer than 4 and 5 slightly shorter than 4. 



Prothoraz very short (as in C. collar is, Bagn.), with the 

 anterior margin strongly emarginate, median length approxi- 

 mately 0*3 the length of the head ; all usual seta} present, 

 the spine at each posterior angle being much the longest and 

 stoutest, and the antero-margtnal pairs the shortest. Wings 

 broad, with margins subparallel and ends rounded ; with 16 

 to 22 duplicated cilia. Fore-tarsal tooth small. 



Abdomen not much broader than pterothorax, sides practi- 

 cally parallel to segment 6; 8 laterally angulate at basal 

 third. Tube stout, less than twice as long as wide at base 

 and more than two-thirds (about 0'7) as long as the head, 

 distinctly constricted at apex. Bristles on 7 to 9 especially 

 strong, long, and black, those on 9 about 0'8 the length of 

 tube; those at apex of tube slender, as long as the tube. A 

 pair of leaf-like ventro-median laminae on segment 11 (apex 

 of tube).

Hah. Australia, Healesville, Victoria, 2 $ s taken on 

 branch of Acacia linearis with galls, 31. i. 16 (R. Kelly). 

 Reg. no. 254. 



I have pleasure in naming this species in honour of 

 Dr. Eland Shaw, of Healesville, Victoria, who has secured 

 me much interesting material, and has enriched entomology 

 in other directions. 



Family Idolothripidae. 

 Genus Klinothrips, nov. 



Species of moderate size. 



cJ. — Head much as in Kleothn'ps, Schmutz, the produced 

 part beyond the eyes representing 0*2 of the total length of 

 the head. Anterior ocellus set near the base of the produced 

 part, protected by a pair of setoa ; eyes finely facetted, post- 

 ocular setaB set in tubercles. Antennae about 1*5 times the 

 length of head. Prothoracic setee set in tubercles. Wings
