1. CCELOCYBOIDES PAX new species. 
Female: — Length, 2.00 mm. 
Ochreous or reddish yellow, the first two segments of the abdomen pale yellowish, rest 
of abdomen dark brown; fore wings with a narrow brownish band across from the clump of 
black set® and another large one, oval in shape, across from apex of the marginal vein and 
all of stigmal. Thorax densely shagreened, the propodeum rather long and with a neck, 
rugulose. Coxae and tarsi eoncolorous, rest of legs brownish, the hind femora and tibiae blackish, 
the latter white at tip. Anteniuo dusky yellowish, the first two funicle joints small and 
subequal like ring-joints, the others (there are eight) widening, all much wider than long; club 
short and stout, more or less obliquely truncate at apex. 
Male : — Unknown. 
Described fronuone female captured by sweeping in forest, December 2, 1911. 
Habitat: Australia — Nelson (Cairns), North Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy 1960, Queensland Museum, the above specimen on a tag, the hind tibiae, a 
fore wing and the head on a slide. 
Genus CCELOCYBELLA Girault. 
Noticing a discrepancy between the position of this genus and its original description, 
I have re-examined the type, finding the mesepimeron large, the hind tibial spurs double, short 
and stout, the front femora swollen but simple, the hind femora less swollen and simple; also 
there is a sulcus on the propodeum between the spiracle and the meson but not a spiracular 
sulcus. It belongs to the PerilampidsB, allied with the tropical gall-making genera which are 
anomalous. 
Subfamily EUNOTINiE. 
Genus AMUSCIDEA Girault. 
Differing from Muscidea Motschulsky in bearing 11 -jointed antennae with one very short 
ring- joint, the club 3-jointed. Mandibles tri dentate. Parapsidal furrows complete, the 
■scutum with thimble punctures; scutellum with a transverse suture before tip; propodeum 
very short, apparently with a weak pair of median carina), no others. Abdomen ovate. 
Marginal vein short, about twice the length of the moderate stigmal which is somewhat 
longer than the postmarginal. Segment 2 occupying a third of the abdomen. Hind tibial 
spur moderately long. 
1. AMUSCIDEA NXGRXPES Girault. Female. Genotype. 
Dark aeneous green, the wings hyaline; proximal four tarsal joints yellowish. Antenna 3 
nearly black. Tip of scutellum bluish, the thorax polygonally scaly. Funicle joints all longer 
than wide, 1 very slightly shorter than the short pedicel. Scape longer than the club. 
Habitat: Mount Tambourine, Queensland. Jungle? 
Type: No. 1.1347, South Australian Museum, Adelaide.
