propodeum narrow, lateral carinm absent, the minute round spiracle with several foveae meso- 
caudad of it, forming a short sulcus mesad of spiracle. Propodeum glabrous. Petiole short 
but distinct. Abdomen depressed. Postmarginal vein much longer than the stigmal, the latter 
a fourth the length of the marginal. Third club joint much the smallest. Meson of thorax flat. 
From one female taken in forest, May 16, 1914.

•scutellum more convex, cdoser together; thorax with very fine scaly sculpture, the pronotum 
reticulately rugulose; first funicle joint much longer, three times as long as pedicel and twice 
as long as fourth funicle joint; only twice as long as pedicel and one third longer than fourth 
funicle joint in the genotype; mandibles only 4-dentate. 
Described from one female caught by sweeping in jungle, June 7, 1913 (A. P. Dodd), 
Eatitat: Northern Queensland (Gordonvale near Cairns). 
Type: No. EyB698, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, a female on a tag, the head and

pedicel as in the genotype of Eiauluiopsis (as described) ; club also as described for the 
genotype but somewhat shorter. Abdomen as long as the rest of the body, the black valves 
of the ovipositor distinctly but shortly extruded. Stigmal vein a little over a third the length 
of the marginal, the poatmarginal over half the length of marginal. Mandibles 6-dentate.
