4. APLASTOMORPHA FLAVOBASALIS uew species of Girault and A. P. Dodd. 2 



Female: — Length. 1.90 mm. 



Agreeing with the description of pulchra Girault and Dodd but the femora are concolorous 

 with the thorax, the rest of the legs white; (scape not seen) ; pedicel and ring-joints concolorous 

 with the rest of the flagellum. Abdomen brown, very lightly washed with metallic, the proximal 

 fifth yellow, the incisions of the segments showing as fine yellow cross-stripes. The abdomen 

 is rather longer and more slender than with pulchra; its second segment occupies a fourth of 

 the surface and the caudal margin of segments 2 and 3 at meson is slightly incised. Joints 2-5 

 of funicle not wider than long, 5 quadrate; club over twice longer than wide. 



Male: — Not known. 



Described from one female captured by sweeping in a jungle pocket, January, 17, 1913 

 (A. P. Dodd). 



Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 



Type: Xo. Hy 2765, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the above specimen on a tag, the 

 head and a caudal leg on a slide. 



5. APLASTOMORPHA RETICULATA new species of A. P. Dodd. 



Female: — Length, 2.60 mm. 



Dark metallic blue, the coxa? and femora concolorous, the base of the abdomen brilliant 

 blue-green, the tibiae and tarsi white; antennal scape yellow; pedicel brown, rest of antennas 

 black. Thorax polygonally reticulate, the reticulation in raised lines, the propodeum more 

 finely so. Propodeum with a median and lateral carina?, also a complete cross-carina; spiracular 

 sulci obscure. Abdomen pointed conic-ovate, scarcely longer than rest of body, second segment 

 occupying nearly one fourth of surface, its caudal margin convex, the third one fourth its 

 length, the others lengthening, the seventh quite as long as the second and nearly as long as 

 the two preceding segments united. Wings hyaline, postmarginal vein twice as long as the 

 stigmal and a little longer than the marginal. Pedicel subequal to funicle 3, funicle 1 longest, 

 5 almost quadrate, first club joint as long as the preceding joint and as long as the other two 

 club joints combined. 



Male : — Xot known. 



Described from one female caught in jungle, February 5, 1914 (A. P. Dodd). 



Habitat : Babinda, Queensland. 



Type: Xo. Hy??66, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a tag; head and hind 

 legs on a slide. 



6. APLASTOMORPHA 5-FASCIATA new species. 



Female: — Length, 1.60 mm. 



Brassy green', the wings hyaline, the coxa? concolorous, the scape and legs dull golden 

 yellow, the caudal femora subfuscous, darker. Abdomen dull golden yellow and with five cross- 

 stripes counting the fifth at tip, the first a short distance out from base. Antenna? dark brown. 

 Abdomen subpetiolate. Propodeum with a thin, obscure median carina, more like a ruga and 

 more obscure near apex (distad), the lateral carina? complete, distinct, abruptly changing 

 direction from eaudo-laterad to caudo-mesad, opposite (mesad of) the spiracle; spiracular 

 sulcus present, not very distinct. Thorax including propodeum, finely punctate. Postmarginal 

 vein Barely shorter than the marginal, a little longer than the stigmal. Funicles 4 and 5 each 

 a little longer than wide (in pulchra, a little wider than long). Pedicel wholly dark brown not
