AUSTRALIAN HTMENOFT^RA CHALCIDOIDEA, IV.—GIRAULT. 
293 
broken marginal stripe of abdomen extends not quite to tip. Funiele 1 a little over twice longer 
than wide; 2 and 3 each a little shorter than 1, 4 ovate, distinctly shorter than 1. Antennae 
inserted somewhat below the middle of the face, the latter smoother ventrad of antennae. Club 1 
the longer. Postmarginal vein somewhat longer than the stigmal. Scutum with some silvery 
pubescence. Type re-examined. 
2. NOTANISOMORPHOMYIA PERSIMILIS new species of A. P. Dodd and Girault. 
Female: — Length, 1.80 mm. 
Very similar to the genotype but dark metallic purplish, the legs golden yellow; scutum 
and scutcllum w*ith rather weaker reticulation, the reticulation cephalad on the scutum (in 
■alMcoxa Girault the scutum and seutelluni are wholly densely reticulated) ; wings stained 
yellowish; cross-carina of propodeum joining the median carina at cephalic fourth (in the 
middle in alhicoxa) ; mandibles with 6 teeth. 
Prom one female captured by sweeping grass and foliage on edge of jungle, December 19, 
1912 (A. P. Dodd). 
Habitat : Kuranda, Queensland. 
Type: No. JIyB710, Queensland Museum, Brisbane, the specimen on a tag, the head on 
•a slide. 
The reticulation is similar in both species (coarse, raised lines) but in persimilis some- 
what less prominent and gradually disappears cephalad on the scutum. (A. A. Girault.) 
Genus ALOPHOMORPHA Girault. 
Synonym : Uiaulomyia Girault.^^ 
1. ALOPHOMORPHA PULCHRA Girault. 
Length, 2 mm. Tn the original description, line 6, scutellum should read sciitum. Head 
■sculptured like the axillso. Scape -white, rest of antenna black. Abdomen sculptured like the 
propodeum (except segment 2). The type was captured May 26, 1913 and is on a tag, an 
antenna and hind leg on a slide. 
Segment 2 of abdomen a sixth or less the length of the abdomen, a little the longest; 
stigmal vein a third the length of the marginal. The scutellum is sculptured as is usual for the 
body sculpture in the Tetrastichini. A large fovea at caudal margin of propodeum, caudo-mesad 
of spiracle. Caudal femur compressed. Type re-examined. 
EIJTjOPHOMORPHA new genus of A. P. Dodd. 
Female: — Head, cephalic aspect, not much wader than long; viewed from above no wider 
than thorax. Mandibles with about nine or ten small teeth; autenufE inserted near the mouth, 
10-jointed, with two ring, three funiele and three club joints; funiele joints not compressed; 
club wider than funiele. Marginal vein as long as submarginal, many times longer than the 
short stigmal, the latter as long as the postmarginal. Posterior tibim with two rather long apical 
spurs. Pronotnm short, scutnm rather long; axillm much advanced, scutellum simple; pro- 
podeura with a distinct median carina, no lateral carinm but there are rather delicate spiracular 
sulci and caudo-laterad of the spiracle there are some blackish bristles. Abdomen sessile, convex 
above, straight beneath, no longer than the head and thorax united and no wider than thorax, 
second segment the longest, occupying scarcely a third of the surface; ovipositor somewhat 
exserted. 
This is not true. Biaulomyia is characterized by the compressed funiele and club but otherwise closely 
•resembles Alophomorphella asperitergum. The smoky blotch on the fore wing of the genotype is separated a little 
from the marginal vein. A female of the genotype at Tweed Heads (Tweed River), New South Wales, 500 feet. 
May 3, 1914 (A. P. Dodd).
