Parasphecodes tooloomensis n. sp. 
Female. Exactly like P. aumntiacus Ckll., except as follows : — Mesothorax 
posteriorly black, only the broad anterior portion red ; area of metathorax wholly 
or largely black ; first abdominal segment with a very broad transverse band of 
blackish suffusion, variably developed, but the segment never clear fight red across 
the middle ; apical part of abdomen red, not black. The wings are strongly dusky. 
Eight females : Tooloom, N.S.W., Jan. 1926 ( H . Hacker). Perhaps to be 
regarded as a race of P. cmrantiacus, but it is easily recognisable. 
Lithurgus atratiiormis Cockerell.

Cociioxys reginse Cockerell.

Ccelioxys biroi Friese. 
Female : Borona, Papua, May 27, 1923 ( T . K . Scheibel). Smaller than the 
type, only about 10 mm. long, and the abdominal bands white, but surely not a

Euryglossina flaviventris var. fuscescens n. var. 
Female. Lateral face-marks wholly wanting : venter of abdomen rather 
dark brown. 
Brisbane, Sept. 10, 1915 (H. Hacker). T should have taken this for a distinct 
species, were it not that typical E. flaviventris occurs at Brisbane, and a second 
specimen taken at the same time and place as the var. fuscescens shows the apical 
two-fifths of venter orange -yellow, the colour abruptly separated from the brown. 
The brownish colour includes the first three sternites. 
Euryglossina flaviventris var. personata n. var. 
Female. With the yellow abdominal venter and minute linear lateral face- 
marks of the typical form, but clypeus and supraclypeal area wholly black. 
Brisbane, Sept. 10, 1915 (H. Hacker). Taken with var. fuscescens.
