MEM01E, S' OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 
A much smaller female from Kuranda (length of body 6, length of 
forceps 9mm.) with pronotum dark brown, wings with a meso- proximal spot of 
buff and abdomen dark brown but paler towards the margins of the tergites 
dorsad (instead of solidly red-brown, becoming dark brown laterad and on 
ultimate tergite) may represent a distinct but related species. 
Chsetospania brunneri (Bormans). 
Mac.pherson Range, National Park, Queensland, XII, 15, 1926, (A. 
Musgrave), 1 $, [Austral. Mus.]. Sydney, New South Wales, 1 £ (small, pale, 
stenolabic), [Austral. Mus.]. Fern Tree Gully, Victoria, IX, 1912, (Spry), 1 
(eurylabic), 1 $, determined by Burr. 
Chsetospania australica (Bormans). 
Kuranda, Queensland, (Dodd), 3 $, determined by Burr. 
The coloration of this species is much more uniform and less brilliant 
than in brunneri. The female pygidium has two points between the small but 
sharply projecting latero-caudal angles and the forceps have a distinct flange 
which suddenly terminates before the moderately incurved apices. 
Labia minor (Linnaeus). 
Sydney, New South Wales, (C. Gibbons), 1 $, [Austral. Mus.]. 
This is undoubtedly an introduction in Australia. The species is wide- 
spread in Europe, has been introduced and become extensively established in 
temperate North America and has also been recorded from temperate South 
America and South Africa. 
Marava (Burr). 
Burr’s Andex falls as a synonym of his Marava. Both were described 
in 1911, the latter having page priority. 
Marava wallacei (Dohrn). 
Burr noted in 1912 that Labia grandis Dubrony described in 1879 was a 
synonym of Labia wallacei described by Dohrn in 1864. Rehn’s . Labia ■nigro- 
flavida, genotype by monotypy of A ruler Burr, was based on a female from 
Cairns, Queensland, of the present species and is therefore another synonym. 
In 1913 Mjoberg described Spongiphora australica from Kimberley, 
North-west Australia and in 1924 figured the insect and referred it to Spongo- 
vostox. Considerable series now before us convince us that that name is still 
another synonym, based upon a robust condition in which the male forceps 
are bidentate. Such material is before us from Java, normal specimens being 
also present in that series.
