Biilliant metallic green tinged with bluish, the 

 abdomen darker. Coxae concolorous, the legs deep 

 lemon yellow, the tarsi fuscous, the posterior 

 tibiae more or less darker; antennae fuscous, the 

 pedicel with some lemon yellow (also the funicle 

 sometimes lemon j^ellow), the scape dark toward tip 

 only. Head and thorax denselj^ rather finelj^ punctate, 

 the abdomen with a scaly sculpture (or polj'gonal 

 reticulation). Venation yellomsh brown, the mngs 

 hyaline. A rounded, peltate yellomsh spot in the 

 center of the abdomen at base, sometimes obscure. 

 Antennae \wth the pedicel shorter than in splendori- 

 ferella.' Antennal sorobes deep, triangular. 



(From 16 specimens, ^/a = inch obj., 1 = inch 

 optic. Bausch and Laub). 



Male: The same. 



(From two specimens.) 



Described from two males and sixteen females 

 from the collection of the Queensland Museum, 

 mounted on cards labelled ,,Bred from gall Nr. 8. 

 Brisbane, H. Hacker. 19. 7. 11." 



The mesopostscutellum in this species is very short 

 and acutely triangular, the submarginal and stigmal 

 veins subequal. 



Habitat: Australia-Brisbane, Queensland. 



Types: In the Queensland Museum, Brisbane, 

 five females mounted together on a card plus two 

 slides bearing antemiae and posterior legs and an-

Female: Length, 1,25 mm. 



Like immaculatipennis but smaller and the thorax 

 brigth metallic green; the distal funicle joint is only 

 about a fourth the length of the pedicel whereas in 

 the other species it is distir^ctly longer, somewhat 

 over haH the length of the pedicel. The stigmal vein 

 is somewhat shorter in this species while the antennal 

 club and the stigmal, postmarginal and marginal 

 veins have a tendancy to be lemon yellow, the other 

 parts dark.

Male: Not known. 



Described from a single female specimen captured

 very short petiole but plainly subsessile. Eyes pubes- 

 cent. Head and thorax ijolygonally reticulated, the 

 vertex nearly smooth. The three funicle joints cylin-
