Family SCELIONID^E. 

 Subfamily B^EIN^E. 



This subfamily appears to be well represented in Austra- 

 lia. In this paper all the previously-described species from 

 Australia are brought together, and two new genera and 

 thirty-two new species are described, thus bringing the known 

 species of the subfamily in Australia to a total of forty-seven. 



Of the species described here, four were received from the 

 South Australian Museum, the others being captured by Mr. 

 A. A. Girault and myself in North Queensland. With one 

 exception, I have not identified any male specimens. 



The magnification used throughout was f-in. objective, 

 1-in. optic, Bausch and Lomb.
