of the marginal. Abdomen and coxae black, the rest of the legs 

 and the tegulae dark red (but all femora for the most part black 

 except each end). Posterior wing dusky for over the distal third. 

 Scutellum at apex emarginate at meson, the two teeth obtuse. 

 Metathorax without teeth. Thoracic clothing inconspieuous. 

 Teeth on hind femur extending about half way to apex. Second 

 funicle joint longest, subequal to the pedicel and the club joint 

 which is not quite a half longer than the last joint of the funicle. 

 Male: Unknown. 



Described from one female labelled "November 1904. F. P. 

 Dodd".

3. Stomatoceras aureus new species. 



Female: Length, 6 mm. 



Differing from the other Queensland species in bearing a 

 golden pubescence over the body, just back of the axillae, a small 

 clump being more conspicuous than the rest. Tegulae large, honey 

 yellow. Antennae, legs (including hind coxae, excluding a very 

 large ovate spot on hind femur outwardly, appended from the upper 

 margin and extending toward the lower margin which it parallels) 

 and the abdomen excepting distal third dorsad and (distinctly) 

 a black border dorsad from base on each side to apex of proximal 

 third, blood red. Fore wings embrowned from marginal vein to 

 apex, the infumation accented under the marginal vein and inter- 

 rupted by two clear areas, one just distad of the marginal vein, 

 the other caudo-distad of the first and longer than it (not very 

 much separated from it though distinctly so). Teeth of scutellum 

 well-developed, separate. Hind wings hyaline. Abdomen oval. 

 With the habitus of Chalets but the antennae below the ventral 

 ends of the eyes, though not much so. Teeth of hind femur not 

 quite reaching to middle. Pedicel longer than the next two funicle 

 joints united; funicle joints 5 — 8 wider than long. Venation about 

 as in novifuseipennis.

 inserted below the middle of the face but plainly above the ventral
