PARASECODELLA new genus. 
Female: — In my table of genera running to Omplialomorpha Girault but differing in 
Raving the venation as in the Entedonini, that iSj the marginal vein long and slender (but here 
no longer than the long submarginal), the postmarginal barely developed, much shorter than 
the stigmal which is very short, subsessile. Pore wings with distinct normal diseal ciliation, 
which, however, though rather dense, is minute. Propodeum longer, quite as in the Elachertini, 
the median carina distinct, no others. Punicle filiform, the club enlarged, in relation to the 
funicle somewhat as in Folynevia but not quite as enlarged. Otherwise very similar to 
•Omphalomotylia. Abdomen conic-ovate but no longer than the rest of the body. Mandibles 
tridentatc. Hind tibial spur single. 
1. PARASECODELLA DICKENSI new species. Genotype. 
Female: — Length, 1.10 mm. 
Peep biack with a jmrplish lustre, the scape except above near tip and first three tarsal 
joints white; also knees and tips of tibias. Thorax (except propodeum) finely polygonally 
scaly; propodeum smooth, no sculpture; wings hyaline. Pedicel somewhat longer than funicle 
1 which is longest, one third longer than wide, funicle 4 shortest, globular oval, a little longer 
than wide; club with a distinct terminal nipple, the two first joints subquadrate. 
Prom one female caiitured in forest, Pebruary 16, 1912 (A. M. Lea and A.A.G.). 
Eahiiat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. EyS536, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag; hind leg, a 
fore wing and a head on a slide. 
Dedicated to Charles Dickens. 
EPOMPHALE new genus. 
Female: — Like Achrysocharis Girault but tlie club is 2-jointed, the antenna3 7-jointed. 
Marginal vein much longer than the submarginal, the postmarginal barely developed. Porm 
•small. 
1. EPOMPHALE AURIVENTRIS new species. Genotype. 
Female: — Length, 0.70 mm. 
Metallic purple, the thorax with very fine sculpture somewhat as in the Tetrastichini, 
the legs and abdomen golden yellow, the latter with two distinct cross-stripes of black close 
together at distal third and indications of a third stripe just proximad of the others. Antennaa 
pallid, without a distinct terminal seta biit with several long but colorless lateral apical setse. 
Pedical longer than either funicle joint both of which are distinctly longer than wide but not 
long, 2 a little longer than 1; club slender, conic ovate, longer than the funicle, divided near 
middle. Wings hyaline, the fore wing slender (about 15 lines of diseal cilia where widest), 
its margiual cilia moderately long, the longest about a third the greatest wing width or some- 
what less. Hind wings acuminate, where widest with about three lines of discal cilia, the 
caudal marginal fringes a little longer than the longest marginal cilia of the fore wing. 
Discal cilia of the latter caudo-proxlmad bounded by a convex line of cilia. 
Prom one female captured by sweeping secondary forest growths, January 8, 1914. 
Habiiat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland. 
Type: No. RyS537, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a slide. 
PAEOMPHALE new genus of Girault and A. P. Dodd. 
Female: Like Aclirysocharella Girault but the antennal club only 2-jointed, the distal 
joint formed by a constriction which, appears to be nonarti dilated; it terminates in a nipple. 
Mandibles long, nearly twice longer than wide, with three very distinct, acute teeth. Pedicel
