MEMOIRS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 
In this genus^ the scutellnm really bears four grooved lines, the second groove shorter 
and visible only from dorso-laterad, the first as described — from dorsal aspect near lateral 
margin of seutelhim. 
EuplectrophcHnns differs merely in having the club solid and a very short abdominal 
petiole. Otherwise it is exactly similar except that segment 2 of the abdomen is longer. 
Sympiesomorphelleus is the same as Digiypliomorphomyia. All the species bear four grooved 
lines on the seutelhim but as described not as in the Tetrastiehini and probably most of the 
genera with grooves on scutellum are the same. The presence of the second groove is not a 
good diagnostic character at all and I have now ignored it. The species E. saintpicrrei has the 
punctures of the groove of scutellum isolated; in the species of Sympiesomorphelleus they are 
joined. 
Genus ALOPllOilOEPIlELLA Girault.'- 
Femalc: — In my table of genera runs to Alophomorpliella Girault but the grooves of the 
scutellum are narrow, delicate and merely curve toward each other at apex, the abdomen is 
sessile and the propodeum bears a pair of close, narrow median carins, the distinct, conspicuous, 
median groove-iiko impressions of scutum (distal half) and scutellum (proximal three fourths) 
absent. Lateral eariiia of propodeum represented by an oblique line of fovese which is 
caudad, far from the spiracle. Mandibles 5- and G-dentate. Marginal vein subequal to the 
scibmarginal, the stigmal long, somewhat over a third the length of the marginal, the 
postmarginal nearly half the length of the marginal. Parapsidal furrows not reaching 
pronotum. flead triangular. Axillm advanced but not greatly. 
1. ALOPHOMORPHELLA ASPERITERGUM new species 
Female: — Length, 2.70 mm. 
Bright a?neous, the legs (except base of cephalic and all of other coxge) and scapd 
except slightly above at tip, orange yellow, the tibia) and tarsi whitish; antennae black; 
wings hyaline but fore wings with a distinct but not large, roimdod, smoky spot centrally 
just opposite apex of stigmal vein. Venation brown. Abdomen dark coppery except at 
base. Head sculptured finely. Pronotum, scutum and parapsides punctate, postscutellum. 
scutellum and axillic densely scaly shagreened. Propodeum delicately scaly, roughly scaly 
like the scutellum laterad of the oblique lateral groove (commencing just at the mesal margin 
of spiracle which is moderate and round-oval, cophalad). Abdomen finely scaly except the 
green segment 2 which is not long. Abdomen depressed, conical, as long as the rest of the 
body. Hind coxa dorsad scaly. Antennro inserted in the middle of the face, the third club 
joint minute and with a distinct terminal spine. Puuicle 1 about twice longer than wide, 
4 a little longer than wide, all longer and larger than the pedicel which is only a bttle longer 
than wide. Punicles 2 and 3 snbequal, somewhat shorter than 1. Postscutellum much shorter 
than scutellum. Pronotum normal. 
Prom one female caught on forest uplands, May 30, 1914 (A. P. Dodd). 
Halntat: Slaclean (Clarence River), New South Wales. 
Type: No. Hy^690, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the female on a tag; caudal 
tibiee and head on a slide. 
Very similar indeed to niveipes but the legs pure white in that species, the propodeum 
mesad of the spiracle less 'distinctly scaly, the abdomen with a short petiole, the spot on 
fore wing somewhat longer. 
other species a lew pages beyond. The species here were intended for a new genus.
