a dot at center of scutelliim at meson, an elongate dot on median line of same at proximal 
third and a shorter one at distal third; cephalic and candal margins of propodeum very 
narrowly; center of immediate base of abdomen; four marginal dots on abdomen along 
proximal half and a marginal dot a little distance proximad of tip ; opposite the four proximal 
marginal dots a cross-stripe of which the distal three are double, the first of the couplets 
much more distinct, the strijies not quite reaching the marginal dots; a fifth, unpaired and 
faint stripe just caudad of the others but farther away from the fourth than the first four are 
from one another; stripes 2-4 connected very narrowly along the meson. Thorax and vertex 
with scattered black setfo. First abdominal stripe faint. Thorax scaly. Mandibles tridentate. 
From one female caught sweeping grass in forest, April 6, 1914. 
Habitat: Gordonvale (Cairns), Queensland, 
Type: No. By S669, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag; head, middle 
and hind tibia on slide with type of immaculativ>eniris Girault. 
17. GYROLASELLA BIOCULATIVENTRIS new species. 
Female: — Length, 0.93 nmi. 
Like Zagrammosoma pulclira Girault but the wings all hyaline, the legs all white except 
hind coxa and proximal half of hind femur, the sides of the other coxso metallic; the head white 
except occiput and cheeks; at meson of vertex caudad, the white descending a short distance 
into the occiput. The abdomen bears a large eye-spot on each side at margin a little distad 
of middle and between these and base two obscure transverse white dots in a line longitudinally, 
the distal one somewhat larger. Some ivory white around the axilla and tegula. The rather 
long stigmal vein a little darkened. Scape white, antennge black; funicle 2 a little wider than 
long, 1 somewhat longer than the pedicel. Mandibles tridentate. Two ring-joints. 
From one female captured by sweeping grass and foliage in forest, January 29, 1913. 
Baljiiat: Townsville, Queensland. 
Type: No. By2G70j Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a slide, 
18. GYROLASELLA HOPKINSI new species. 
Female: — Length, 1.05 nun. 
Like worcesteri Girault but the large conically acuminate marking of scutum plainly 
reaches the caudal margin (in the other species barely so), the propodeum is wholly dark 
metallic green except for a transverse, narrow wedge on each side of postscutellum, the mesal 
margin of each parapside is metallic except at extreme caudal end; and the abdomen bears 
long, abbreviated stripes, nearly confluent longitiidinally and there are three transverse, 
disconnected marginal dashes (and a fourth minute one caudad). Differs from pulchra in 
being much less robust, in bearing the metallic coloration on the parapsides and having the 
marking on the scutum subacutely pointed (as in cJianningi) and in the large abdominal 
cross-stripes. In pulchra the stripes on the abdomen are not plain but more or less emarginated,. 
fluted or curved. Ocelli in green areas and cephalo-ventrad of the lateral ocellus, there is a 
green mark, more or loss elongate. In worcesteri, the valves of the ovipositor are extruded 
but shortly. Pedicel above at base and sides of scape washed with metallic green. Mandibles- 
tri dentate. 
Prom one female caught in forest, March 21, 1913.
