2. METACRIAS SECUNDUS new species. 
Female: — Length, 2.00 mm. 
Very similar to australiensis but the postmarginal vein absent, the thorax more aeneous 
and more deeply punctate, umbilicately punctate, the scape is metallic only at the middle 
portions, the ends white and the grooves on each side of the median carina of propodeum are 
shallower. Mandibles strongly bidentate. Both species have a more or less complete foveate 
curved sulcus in the stead of a lateral carina. Compared with types of australiensis . Ring- 
joint large. The scutellum in australiensis is raised reticulate not punctate, the areas deeper 
on the scutum. 
Male : — Not known. 
From one female captured in September, 1913 (A. F. Dodd). 
Habitat: Kuranda, Queensland. 
Type: No. Hyl657, Queensland Museum, the above specimen on a tag, the head and 
hind legs on a slide. 
In this species the parapsidal furrows are complete, not very distinct but more so than 
in the genotype. 
DIAGNOSTIC ARRANGEMENT OF THE ENTEDONINE EULOPHIDJE. 
Females. Austkalia. 
The abdomen is usually distinctly petiolate, the parapsidal furrows variable, complete 
or incomplete, but always plainly indicated cephalad or caudad; stigmal vein usually sub- 
sessile or very short, the marginal long. Forms always metallic blue, green or purple or 
else black, seldom with yellow on the body, the latter short and stout, the mandibles usually 
bi- or tridentate, the funicle never more than 4-jointed; with a scaly sculpture. Propodeum 
long and usually with Carinas. Second abdominal segment frequently elongate, the abdomen 
upturned. 
I. Antennae without ring-joints; scutellum simple. 
Antenna; 7 -jointed, the club 2-jointed; scutum with a median sulcus at distal half; 
postmarginal vein over twice the length of the stigmal, the marginal over twice 
the length of the submarginal; projjodeum tricarnate. 
Apleurotropopseus Girault (Type: A. albipes Girault) 
II. Antennae with one or more ring- joints; scutellum with or without a groove. 
1. Scutellum with a median longitudinal grooved line only. Antennas 8- jointed, the 
club 2-jointed, one ring-joint, the funicle 3-jointed. 
Horismenus Walker (Type : H. cleodora Walker). 
2. Scutellum simple, without longitudinal grooves. 
(1) Antennae with one ring- joint, the funicle 3-jointed. 
Propodeum without true lateral carinse but with a median carina. 
Antenna; S- jointed, the club 2-jointed, the terminal joint as usual with 
a stout spine; head very wide, the occiput concave, the propodeal 
.spiracles large, oval, in depressions; scutellum sculptured; median 
carina of propodeum connected at apex with the carinated caudal 
margin. Enfcedon Dalrnan (Type: E. cyanellus Dalrnan). 
The same; propodeal spiracle round, small, the median carina bounded 
by a deep sulcus on each side. Hind tibial spur elongate. Lateral 
carinai represented by sulci. 
Metaerias Girault (Type: M. australiensis Girault).
