posticis nigris ; alis flavis dimidio basali, fuscis dimidio apicali ; 

 anticis Btigmate maoulaque magna sub stigmate cellulara brachi- 

 alem attiugentc flavis. 

 Long. 10 mm. 



? . Head and thorax almost smooth ; the interantennal 

 ridges low, the marginal carinas of the frontal depression well 

 marked. Parapsidal furrows feebly crenulated. Enclosed 

 area of the median segment broadly oval, extending to the 

 apex. 



Hub. Port Essington, Northern Territory (Gould). 



Very similar to ruberrima } differing in the sculpture, in the 

 smaller size and paler colour, in the colour of the face, and in 

 the larger extent of the yellow mark below the stigma. 



Disophrys diversipes, sp. n. 



$ . Rufo-testacea ; capite nigro, clypeo, mandibulis, apice excepto, 

 palpisque rufo-testaceis ; segmentis abdominalibus quarto sequenti- 

 busque, femoribus posticis, basi supra rufo-lineatis, tibiis posticis 

 apice, tarsisque posticis nigris ; alis dimidio basali flavis, dimidio 

 apicali fuscis; anticis stigmate fasciaque lata sub stigmate flavis. 



Long. 10-11 mm. 



? . Face shining, sparsely and shallowly punctured, vertex 

 smooth and shining ; interantennal ridges rather low, the 

 marginal carinas of the frontal depression well developed. 

 Median lobe of the mesonotum marked with a low longitu- 

 dinal carina in front, with a distinct groove on each side of 

 the carina; parapsidal furrows not crenulate. Median 

 segment transversely rugulose between the longitudinal 

 carinas ; the enclosed median area elongate-ovate, not reaching 

 the apex of the segment. First tergite nearly twice as long 

 as broad, second tergite without a transverse line. The 

 yellow fascia of the fore wing nearly reaches the lower 

 margin of the wing in the type, in some other specimens 

 quite, leaving a detached fuscous band across the wing from 

 the base of the stigma. 



Hab. Kuranda, N. Queensland [Turner), May 1913 ; 

 Mackay, Queensland [Turner). 



Easily distinguished from ruberrima and rujifrons by the 

 black hind femora and the black apical segments of the 

 abdomen. 



Disophrys exornata, sp. n. 



$ . Rufo-testacea ; antennis, tibiis posticis tertio apicali, tarsisque 

 posticis nigris ; alis tertio basali flavis, anticis fascia sub stigmate
