1920". This specimen was probablyassociated with the Girault label on Card 3.NOTES: Comparing the parts missing fromthe specimen on Card 2 and the partspresent on the slide there is little doubt thatthe two are associated. The PUBL. DATAgives the sex of the Syntypes as female, butthe description heading gives the sex asmale. Examination of the specimens clearlyshows them to be males. The QueenslandMuseum register numbers for the Syntypesof this species are T.9176 (Card 1) andHy.3188 (Card 2).

I amassuming that the remaining specimenlabelled "type" by Girault is the originalspecimen from Gordonvale and that thehead on the slide is from this card-mountedspecimen. This is confirmed by thepublished data for Encarsia cybele whichstate, "... mounted on a slide with the typehead of Philotrypesis longiventris Girault."

MARIA COCCOPHAGUS Girault, 1931.1931, "A new habit in an old insect, Homo

pudicus and new Eurytomidae."(Girault : Brisbane) (1 September 1931): 3[282]-sp. description.

PUBL. DATA: With type Eretmoceruslativentris. In his unpublished manuscriptGirault says, "There were four males andthree females in the original material". TheSyntypes of this species are mounted withthe Syntypes of Eretmocerus lativentris andfor this reason it is unclear whetherGirault's PUBL. DATA refer to collectedwith or mounted with the "type ofEretmocerus lativentris". On occasionsGirault has mounted specimens of differenttaxa together when they were collected atthe same locality and date, in which casehis statement applies to mounting andcollecting data. These are therefore asfollows, "... reared from coccids on 'pine',Miles, Queensland, January, 1924".QM: Slide - 2 complete coverslipscontaining several Syntypes ofCoccophagus maria, 2 Syntype 2 9 ofEretmocerus lativentris Girault andspecimen(s) of Ablerus piceipes Girault. Ileave it for the first reviser to sort out thespecimens and the Syntypes ofCoccophagus maria. "Eretmoceruslativentris Gir., Type 9, Coccophagusmaria Girault d 2, Type 2, Ablerus piceipes

PHI 3881, 4010", "4010". These labelshave arrows directed at the relevantcoverslips.NOTES: The Queensland Museum registernumber for the Syntypes of this species isT.4010. Girault's label is rather confusingin having "S 9" after "Coccophagus" and"Type 4" between "Coccophagus mariaGirault" and "A blerus piceipes 9". Itcould be read that "Type V' refers to thelast mentioned species. However, the typeof Ablerus piceipes occurs on another slide.It is difficult to understand why Girault haswritten " d 2 ... Type 4" associated withCoccophagus maria. Perhaps he intendedthat 1 9 was to be his Holotype. Since aHolotype was not designated in the


literature his specimens become Syntypes. Ileave it to the first reviser to sort out howmany from his original series are present onthe slide.

P. Sveum. Polynema mendeliGirault".NOTES: The female on Slide 2 labelled as"TYPE [NGI-1]" and bearing theQueenland Museum type-register numberfor Polynema mendeli (Hy.1297) is not theHolotype. If one examines the PUBL.DATA with Polynema mendeli it is clearthat the Holotype is a single male on a slidewith Gonatocerus spinozai Girault and theHolotype of Polynema nordaui Girault.This information fits Slide 1 and is backedup by further information in the samepaper. In the introduction to the paperGirault says, "The following species haverecently been captured by Mr Alan P.Dodd and very kindly given to me". The


only time that full collection data are givenis with the first species Polynema bicolorand they say, "... sweeping jungle growthsalong forest streamlet, near Nelson [=Gordonvale], North Queensland, December6, 1912 (A.P. Dodd)". This date is presenton Slide 1. The PUBL. DATA withPolynema nordaui described in the samepaper state, "Type ... the above female inbalsam (mounted with Gonatocerusspinozai and the type of Polynema mendeh)."Under Gonatocerus spinozai (describedin 1912 by Girault, Mem. Qd Mus. 1140) Girault says, "At the same time thatthe above new species [ Polynema bicolor ]was captured Mr Dodd obtained a pair ofthis species". The PUBL. DATA for P.wallacei on Slide 2 (descr. by Gir. in 1915,Mem. Qd Mus. 3 : 166) state "Type ... 1female on a slide with a female of mendeli".All of this information clearly points tothe male on Slide 1 as the Holotype of P.mendeli and the female on Slide 2 as anadditional specimen.The confusion resulting from the incorrectlabelling of the above specimens has beencompounded by the actions of twosubsequent workers. New (1976) incorrectlyassumed that the female on Slide 2 was theHolotype and appears to have overlookedSlide 1. Sveum (1982) attempted to solvethe confusion by assuming all specimens ofPolynema mendeli above were Syntypes.He then selected the male as a Lectotypeand the two females as Paralectotypes.Both workers appear to have overlookedthe clear evidence in the original paperwhich is listed above. The confusion shouldnot have arisen and selection of aLectotype was unnecessary. The twofemales were not mentioned in the originaldescription and therefore have no type-status. Their selection as Paralectotypes isinvalid. New (1976) has similarly confusedthe issue with Polynema nordaui byselecting the wrong specimen as theHolotype (the correct specimen is the maleon Slide 1).T.3614 on Slide 2 is a duplicate QueenlandMuseum register number for the Holotypeof this species and has been cancelled.

PUBL. DATA: None given. In hisunpublished manuscript Girault gives amore formal description with the followingdata, "Types, 2 's, Killara, 5, 7.11.1936,1^3.11.36; 1^7.11.36. Near Sydney,N.S. Wales".ANIC: 4 cards on separate pins as follows:Card 1 - 1 Syntype minus head andmetasoma. "galls A. implexa, Killara7.11.36".Card 2 - 1 Syntype head and left forewing; 1 glue spot marking the position of asecond specimen now missing.

"galls A.implexa, Killara, 5.11.36".NOTES: Only one of the cards is pinnedthrough a Girault label, "Epimegastigmusmercatori Gir., Types". Although thepublished description is not annotated"new species" it makes this a valid,available, nominal species. I am assumingthat the specimen missing on Card 2 wasmissing when Girault described the speciessince his unpublished manuscript mentionsonly two specimens from Killara.

The second specimen under thesmall coverslip fragment appears to havebeen added later (the coverslip fragmentoverlies portion of an old Girault labelunder the present Q.

He thencrossed out the new specific name andadded "s" to the sex sign.T.3684 is a duplicate Queensland Museumregister number for the Holotype of thisspecies and has been cancelled.
