Male: Unknown. 



Type: The following species. 



1. Äpleurotropis viridis new species. 



Female: Length, 1.40 mm. 



Brilliant metallic green, the wings hyaline, the legs except 

 the coxae, white. Antennae black, the scape white with a dusky 

 dot at tip above. Pedicel distinctly a third shorter than the first 

 funicle joint which is longest, the third still Ionger than the pedicel.

From one female captured by sweeping forest, January 27, 1913. 

 Habitat: Australia — Magnetic Island, Townsville, 

 Queensland. 



Type: In the Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the above 

 specimen on a tag, the head on a slide. 



Eulophini. 



Asympiesiella new genus. 

 This genus is proposed for Sympiesis nelsonensis Girault, 

 since it differs from Sympiesis in bearing but 9-jointed antennae. 

 The antennal club is only 2-jointed. 



Family Trichogrammatidae. 



Genus Abbella Girault. 

 1. Abbella sub flava Girault. 



A single female of this species was captured February 5, 

 1913 near the Herbert River at Halifax (Ingham District), Queens- 

 land, while sweeping along a roadside adjoining canefields. 



Family Mymaridae. 

 Genus Gonatocerus Nees. 

 1. Gonatocerus tolstoii new species. 

 Female: Length, 0.80 mm. 



Jet black and thus in the group of species including nox and 

 the following species with which it is more closely allied. It differs 

 from it in the inequality of the funicle joints, the first four joints 

 all short but unequal, 1 and 2 equal (1 sometimes longer), globular, 

 small, 3 and 4 equal (4 a little larger) globular but about twice larger, 

 4 less than half the length of 5 which is longest ; joint 6 distinctly 

 shortest of the distal four funicle joints, while 7 and 8 are subequal 

 or nearly to 5. Pedicel as long as the distal funicle joint. In lo- 

 monosoffi, joint 6 is subequal to 5. Thr fore wings are slightly 

 broader in this species but otherwise the two cannot be distin- 

 guished. 



Male: Unknown. 



Described from one female captured by sweeping forest on 

 the floor of the summit of the second coast ränge of mountains 

 (1500 feet), May 29, 1913.
