AUSTRALIAN EYMENOPTERA CHALCIDOIDEA, III.—GIRAULT.

each edge toward tip; tip of abdomen concolorous, of the ovipositor valves black. 
Propodeum black mesiaHy, also the occiput dorsad (mesially). Wings hyaline. 
Mandibles 5-dentate. 
Male : — -Unknown. 
Described from one female captured August 5, 1913, by sweeping in forest. 
Habitat: Nelson (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 1617, Queensland Museum, the above specimen on a tag, 
the head on a slide. 
19. ELASMUS M ANDIBUL ARIS new species. 
Female: — Length, about 1 *85 mm. Stout. 
Like cyaneilla Girault but the mandibles about 12-dentate and long, the 
cephalic tibia* pale brown. Wings hyaline. Funicle joints shortening in succes- 
sion, the first a little longer than the second, the third longer than the short 
pedicel and also than the first club joint, somewhat longer than wide. Scape 
mostly concolorous. Scutellum reticulated scaly, with only several large sete. 
Male: — Not known. 
Described from one female captured by sweeping in forest, August 5, 1913 
(A. P. Dodd). 
Habitat : Nelson (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 1618, Queensland Museum, the above specimen on a tag, 
the head on a slide. 
Later another female was found in the same collection; its body was 
decidedly greenish rather than bluish as with the type specimen. However, 
I could not distinguish between them otherwise. 
Genus EURYISCHIA Howard. 
The encyrticl genus mentioned previously (I., p. 176) as bearing elasmid 
coxte and wings was this genus whose position is undoubtedly correct. I have 
since described the following species. The tarsi are 5-jointed. The antennas need 
careful examination, since 1 believe two ring-joints are present and once 
suspected three; for several of the Australian species only one is recorded and, 
I believe, none were found in sumneri. 
1. EURYISCHIA SUMNERI Girault. Female. 
Black-blue with the distal third or more of fore wing embrowned ; scutel- 
lum finely alutaceous, the scutum the same but clothed with dense, stiff, black 
bristles. Bristles on proximal part of fore wing as in inopinata Masi. Mandibles 
tridentate, the inner tooth shorter, broad and truncate. First funicle joint 
subquadrate.
