OMPHALENTEDON new genus. 
Female: — Like Mesiocliaris Foerster but the antenna? with three ring-joints. . 
1. OMPHALENTEDON LONGUS new species. Genotype. 
Female: — Length, LoO mm. Abdomen conieal, somewhat longer tlian the tliorax. 
Lark metallic ajenous green, the broad fore wings hyaline, the legs (except cephalic 
coxa3) and the scape white. Petiole of abdomen broMiiish, wider than long. Thorax very 
coarsely polygonally reticnliite, tlie lines raised, -finer on cephalic scutum, the pronotiun scaly. 
Propodeum glabrous, strongly tricarinate. Abdomen glabrous, hairy diatad of segment 2 
which occui)ies somewhat less than a fourth of the surface. Postmarginal and stigmal veins 
short, subequal. Hind tibial spur normal. Parapsidal furrows along caudal half, obtuse. 
Axillaa mudi advanced but only about half projects cephalad of scutellnm. Pronotnm trans- 
verse-linear. Afarginal vein t-wice the length of the submarginal. Pedicel subequal to funicle 1 
which is one and a half times longer than wide, slightly longer than 2, 3 still shorter; terminal 
spine of club distinct, long. Club 1 subqiiadi'ate. Mandibles acutely bidentate. 
Male: — Not known. 
Described from one female captured in jungle, May 29, 1914. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy2i88, Queensland Mnseuni, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag; head and 
hind leg on a slide. 
MESTOCTIAPOMYIA new genus. 
Genotype, Mesioeharis lividus Giranlt. Includes Mestocliarls veternosns and silvensis. 
Each species bears a paired median carina on the propodeum; lividiis has a middle short one 
at base, also silvensis but the short carina is longer and split. In v>cteniosus, the short third 
middle carina is absent, the propodeum at meson with two separated carina^. Types re-examined. 
ENTEDONOPSELS new genus. 
Female: — Agreeing in every particular with Entedonomyia Girault except that the 
ontennso bear three ring-joints and the two median carinaB of propodeum are close together, 
diverging only at apex. 
1. ENTEDONOPSEUS TRICOLORIPES new species. Genotype. 
Female: — Length, L65 nnn. 
Agrees with the description of the genotjq^e of Enicdcmomyia exce])t that it is more 
robust, the abdomen distad of segment 2 is cop^Bery, the tibiae are metallic blue, orange at 
li]», the tarsi white, their distal joint black. Also the hairs on scutum are black, funicles 2-4 
are quadrate and siibequal, each jnuch larger than the pedicel, 1 only slightly longer than wide. 
CIul) distinctly longer than any of the funicle joints. Type anteunm of E)iiedonomyia 
compared. 
Prom one female taken from foliage of jungle ])lants, May 13, 1914 (A. P. Dodd).

a caudal tibia on a slide. 
PAHAIIORISMENUS new genus. 
Female: — Like Horismciim AValker but the antennm with two ring-joints, the first large, 
distinct, the second moderately short yet longer than usual. Propodeum with a median carina 
bounded by snlci whose lateral margin is not distinctly carinated. Also in the mesal area a 
curved carina on each side of the meson but some distance from the median carina yet meeting
