15. TETRASTICHUS VICTORIENSIS Girault. Female.

yellow, also the antenna), venation, tarsi, knees and portion of the tibia). Wings very slightly 
embrowned throughout and a light stain under apex of stigmal vein. Pedicel long, obconic, 
joints 1 and 3 of funicle subequal, joint 2 shorter and subquadrate.

16. TETRASTICHUS NELSONENSIS Girault, Female and male. 
Much like Teirasliehclla faseiatus but the abdomen less regularly banded, there being 
but five transverse stripes, the proximal one faint, the fourth abbreviated laterad, the fifth 
consisting merely of a transverse dash on each side of the meson. A round black spot in 
centre of scutum on each side of meson (sometimes obscure) ; an elongate spot in the centre of 
mesal margin of each parapside and a round dot in centre of scutellum at cephalic three 
fourths; another similar spot on the shoulder, directly cephalad of the base of each parapside. 
Differs markedly from faseiatus in that the discal ciliation of the fore wing beneath the 
marginal vein is coarser and less dense than that distad of the venation; in faseiatus the 
ciliation is equally fine and dense. 
The male averages a half smaller, the discal ciliation of the fore wing less dense but 
relatively the same. There are three black stripes across the abdomen on distal half, the first 
interrupted at the meson.
