the scutelluni and postseutellnm iiietallie cyaneiis. Scutiiin with four long, black bristles, one 
in each corner, the scutellum with two, one on each side near lateral margin about center from 
base. Thorax coarsely scaly reticulate. Fore wings hyaline but with a distinct, broad, blackish 
•stripe across from a little over distal third of marginal vein and the whole of the proximal 
-side of the stigmal. Proi)odenm glabrous, washed with metallic blue, without earinee^ Abdomen 
with a short yello^v petiole, slender, acute at ajtex, somewhat longer than the thorax. Post- 
marginal vein slightly shorter than the stigmal. ^Marginal fringes of fore wing where longest 
a little less than a fourth the greatest wing width. Marginal vein along cephalic margin 
with long, slender bristles. Cheeks short but distinct. Flagellum tajiering, the funicle joints 
■stout, somewhat longer than wide, 2 a little longer than 1; terminal spine distinct, rather long. 
Pedicel a little shorter than funicle 1. Axillae not advanced. Caudal marginal cilia of hind 
^ving some^vhat shorter than the greatest width of the blade yet moderate in length. Fore 
wings with about 20, caudal wings with about 6 lines of discal cilia v/here widest. Club joints 
1 and 2 each twice longer than wide, longest of the flagellum. 
Prom one female cnidured by sweeping in jungle. May 30, 1914.

Type: JS'O. llyS5S4, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag. 
7. ACHRYSOCHARELLA GLABRISCUTELLUM new species. 
Female: — Length, 1.30 mm. 
Like Achrysocharis clariscuieUinn occidentalis but larger and the antennae and wings as 
in the typical form of that variety. Venation yellow; the stigmal vein black and with a 
fuscous dash from its apex. Pedicel very loug, as long as the funicle. Agrees in every 
particular with clariscuielluDL chmsentellum except the sculpture of the scutellum and the 
generic character. Scutum finely punctate. Compared with type of dariscntellum clariscutellum 
■ndiose antenna? bear but one ring-joint. Legs white exee])t coxie. Probably a variety of 
cJarhcutellum (if so that s{)ecics belongs here).

8. ACHRYSOCHARELLA VARICLAVA new^ species. 
Female: — Length, O.SO nun. 
Differing from (labia in the following particulars only: Tiie distal two club joints are 
black (the distal joint in duhia), the posterior wings are narrower, with only five lines of 
discal cilia where widest (seven in (Jubia) and the fore wings are more slender, about 20 lines 
of cilia Avhere widest (about 26 in diihia). Also the caudal coxa) are entirely concolorous and 
the caudal femur bears a distinct blackish blotch dorsad at proximal third. Compared with 
tyi^e of duhia.
