AUSTRALIAN HYMEN OTTER A CHALCIHOIDEA, IV.—GIRAULT. 
271 
This poorly described genus, I think, belongs to the Entedonini — abdomen petiolate, its 
second segment lengthened, marginal vein very long, postmarginal and stigmal veins short, 
metallic blue color, the upturned abdomen. It will be difficult to recognise without seeing 
the type. 
SPECIES UNKNOWN. 
Ccdocyba mridilineata Froggatt, 1907, p. 79, fig. 48. 
Described in an agricultural journal as a merisine pteromalid, figured with 4-jointed

Cirrospilus species of Walker — de Dalla Torre, 1898. 
DIAGNOSIS OF THE ELACIIERTINE EULOPHID^E. 
Females. Australia. 
The tribe is characterised by bearing but a single normal spur on the caudal tibia). 
1. Scutellum with two dorsal grooved lines. 
(1) Antenna) with the funicle 2- jointed. 
Club 3-jointed; one (?) ring-joint. 
Head much longer than wide and very thin; fiagellum subcompressed, the ring- 
joint usually hidden, apparently present; body variegated, the wings 
banded or with a substigmal fascia or a pattern. 
Zagrammosoma Ashmead (Type: Hi pyocephalus multilineata Ashmead). 
Club 3-jointed; two ring-joints. 
Propodeum very short, more or less hidden at the meson by the postscutellum. 
Body variegated. 
Vertex elevated; pronotum long triangular. 
Postmarginal vein shorter than the stigmal; flagellum subcompressed. 
Fore wings usually with a substigmal spot, often with fasciae. 
Atoposoma Masi (Type: A. variegaium Masi). 
Vertex not elevated; pronotum transverse. 
Wings usually hyaline. 
Gyrolasella Girault (Type: G. fasciatus Girault). 
Propodeum long, easily visible at the meson. 
Body all metallic or all black the abdomen sessile; propodeum with a distinct 
median earina. (single or paired). 
Propodeum tricarinate, the median earina broad, solid; second abdominal 
segment occupying nearly half of the surface, scutellum with no 
transverse suture before apex; funicle joints petiolate. 
Ascotolinx Girault (Type: A. funeralis Girault). 
Propodeum bicarfnate, short, with an obscure paired median earina at 
the meson; antennae short, capitate; second abdominal segment 
occupying less than a fourth of the surface; scutellum without a 
cross-suture before apex; funicle joints not petiolate.* 
Pseudiglypliella Girault (Typo: P. ccelestis Girault). 
Body nonmetallic, yellowish; propodeum usually rugulose, the abdomen 
shortly petiolate. 
Pronotum conical; second abdominal segment occupying about a third of 
the surface; postmarginal vein a little longer than the stigmal. 
Pseudiglyphomyia Girault (Type: P. biguttata Girault). 
* Propodeum sometimes with a distinct med’ai earina. Ascotolivx is misplaced. PseudiglypJms Girault 
0 mitted by mistake ; it is characterized by the short scutum and the much advanced axillae.
