joints. Scape very long and slender, two thirds as long as the face; pedicel slender, much 

 longer than any of the funicle joints which are subequal, each somewhat longer than wide; 

 first two club joints about subequal, as long as wide; ring-joints moderately large. Thorax 

 with very fine, dense longitudinal reticulation, the propodeum practically smooth. Parapsidal 

 furrows incomplete. Scutellum with a faint cross-suture. Propodeum tricarinate, the carina: 

 very distinct; spiracle small, rounded, situated further caudad than usual, no spiracular sulci. 

 Abdomen no longer or wider than the thorax, straight beneath, slightly convex above; second 

 segment occupying about a fourth of the surface, the others more or less subequal; caudal 

 margins of all segments straight. Fore wings with a sooty blotch just beneath the curve of the 

 submarginal vein and another beneath apex of stigmal vein; marginal vein twice as long as 

 the stigmal. the latter as long as the postmarginal, the venation distinct. 



Male: — Xot known. 



Described from one female captured by sweeping foliage and grass along the Mulgrave 

 River, mostly jungle, March 30, 1913 (A.A.G.). 



Habitat: Mulgrave River, Cairns District, Queensland. 



Type: No. HyS772, Queensland Museum. Brisbane, the female on a tag, the head and 

 hind legs on a slide. 



This genus differs from UrieUoides Girault in having the antenna? inserted against the 

 mouth and both mandibles 1-dentate. 



2. PSEUD ANOGMUS FUSCIPES new species. 



Female: — Length, 1.60 mm. 



Very similar to the genotype, being nearly black but the femora are coneolorous, the 

 tibiae much lighter (blown) and the funicle joints are somewhat wider than long. Mandibles 

 not distinctly seen but one 4-dentate. Flagellum black. Both species are densely, finely scaly 

 punctate, the propodeum scaly. 



From one female caught October 11 ( H Hacker). 



Habitat: Brisbane. Queensland. 



Type: Xo. Hy .;,'.. ( Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag; head, caudal 

 tibiae and wings on a slide. 



•' In this genus the abdomen is flat, rounded ovate, wider than the thorax; the head is 

 longer than wide, the antennal club with an apparent fourth joint which is distinct but does 

 not appear to be articulated; the scutellum has not a transverse suture before apex." 

 (A. A. Girault.) 



PARANO.GMTJS new genus of Girault and A. P. Dodd. 



Female: — Head no wider than the thorax, not much wider than long (cephalic aspect); 

 eyes moderately large. Antenna inserted below the middle of the face, on a line with the 

 ventral ends of the eyes; 11-jointed, with three ring-joints and a solid club. Mandibles 

 4-dentate. Pronotum short; parapsidal furrows half complete; scutellum simple. Propodeum 

 short, broad, without a neck, glabrous, tricarinate, the carina? well defined and also with a few 

 irregular longitudinal carina?; spiracles round, no spiracular sulci. Abdomen conic-ovate, 

 scarcely longer than the thorax; second segment the longest, occupying one fourth of the 

 surface, third not one half as long; fourth longer than third; fifth longer than fourth, two 

 thirds as long as second; sixth and seventh each about as long as fourth. Marginal vein 

 twice as long as the stigmal, which is moderately long; postniarginal vein slightly longer than
