6. CHRYSOCHAROMYIA VARINOTATA new species. 
Female: — ^Lengtli, 1.60 mm. Allied with inwrea. 
Pale honey or golden yellow, the mesotliorax orange yellow, the wings hyaline. Occipital 
margin of vertex, median line of scutellum broadly and clavately (the narrow end caudad), 
apex of abdomen and valves of ovipositor, ]»ronotnm excei>t a golden round spot at caudal 
margin at lateral margin, parapsidal furrows and cephalic margin of s<nitum, axillje, median 
line of scutum narrov\]y and ])rop()deum except at caudal margin near lateral margin, blue- 
black. Abdomen with live coi 2 i))lete cross-stripes of black between base and apex and at the 
interval of a stripe a short transverse dash across meson between strijjcs 3 and 4. l^ropodeum 
wuth a short, complete median carina. Mandibles strongly tridentate. Scape pale yellow, 
dusky black above at proximal two thirds and at tip; rest of antenna black. Vertex subdusky. 
Punicle 1 thickened and a little longer than 2 or 3, the latter nearly twice longer than wide, 
somewhat longer than the pedicel. Distal dull joint shortest of the flagellum, its terminal 
spine short, stout, distinct. Thorax scaly. Abdomen slender, conic-ovate. 
Prom one female caught at 1,000 feet, forest, Upper Tweed River, May 17, 1914 (A. P.

Hdbiiat: Tweed Elver, Kow South Wales.

incerea, head on slide witli tyi>G Achrysocharella variclava Girault. 
7. CHRYSOCHAROMYIA BICOLORITHORAX new species. 
Female: — ^Lengtli, 1.10 mm. 
Agrees with the description of elungata Girault, but the face below the antennas and 
sides and venter of thorax also golden yellow, the abdomen is shorter, the postmarginal vein 
shorter, only slightly longer than the stigmal; also fuuicle 2 is slightly the longest joint of 
the funielo and the terminal spine of the club is decidedly longer, distinctly over half the 
length of distal club joint (les.s than that in elongaia). The mandibles are smaller. Caudal 
wings acute, with about five linos of sparse cilia where broadest. Thorax reticulated, the 
parapsidal furrows complete. Longest marginal fringes of fore wing somewhat less than a 
fourth of the greatest width, a little shorter than the caudal fringes of the hind wing. 
Pedicel su])equal to funicle 1, which is distinctly longer than wide and a little shorter than 
either of the first two club joints. Differs from Achrysocharella qubiquefasciaia in bearing 
distinctly longer marginal fringes on the fore wing, the mandibles, colour of head and thorax, 
longer terminal spine of elnb, shorter fimicle 1, and so on. Compared with ty^jes of the two 
species mentioned. 
From one female captured by sweeping in forest, April 24, 1914. 
Habitat : Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. Hy253S, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a slide. 
PSEUDOSECODBS new genus of Girault and A. P. Dodd. 
Female : — ^Agreeing with Secodclla Girault but the propodeum has a short median carina 
and the antenngo are different, Antennm 11-jointed, two ring-joints, five distinct funicle 
joints and a 2-jointed club, the apical joint with a terminal spur. Posterior tibiiB with one 
spur. 
1. PSEUDOSECODES SPLENDIDUS new species. Genotype. 
Female: — ^Length, 3.10 rum. 
Dark metallic blue-green, the legs (except the three proximal joints of all the tarsi 
w’hich are pale straw yellowQ concolorous; antenum concolorous but the scape is reddish. 
Propodeum short, scaly. Wings hyaline, the discal ciliation arranged as in Secodella. 
Marginal vein nearly as long as the submarginal, stigmal short, postmarginal two and a half
