at base; propodeum completely areolated, all the carine high 
and sharp; areola large, coffin-shaped, longer than petiolar area; 
spiracle round, situated far before the costella and nearer the 
lateral than the pleural carina; apex of propodeum extending 
distinctly over the bases of hind cox; wings large; stigma nar- 
row, lanceolate; discocubitus angularly broken and with a very

Genus APOPHYSIUS novum 
This very curious genus is anomalous wherever placed. 
Owing to the strongly compressed abdomen it has a superficial 
ophionine appearance, but the form of the areolet, and the
