21,3 Weld: Notes on the Liopterinz 327 
curvature are as (petiole) 13 (width 26) :33 : 21 : 27 : 75 : 32. 
Seventh not visible. Slight pubescent patches in middle of sides 
of 5 and larger ones on anterior half of 6. Ventral valves pro- 
truding horizontally with and slightly farther than the ventral 
spine. Ovipositor probably very long. Using width of head as 
a base the length of mesonotum ratio is 1.16; length of antenna, 
2.1; wing, 2.7. Length, 4.5 millimeters. 
Male. __Differs from female in abdomen being shorter than 
head and thorax, and in having a larger petiole. Dorsal lengths 
of tergites are as (petiole) 17 (width 19) : 27 : 20:23:19: 16 
:19. Punctured and pubescent area near anterior margin of 
5, larger one on 6, and covering 7. In side view the fourth 
tergite is largest. In ventral view the sternites are visible. 
Abdomen is twice as long as high, only slightly compressed, 
width seven-eighths height (Plate 1, fig. 2, b). The lengths of 
segments of antenna are as 16:9:13:19:19:19 2:18:18 
17:15:14, rest broken off, all flagellar segments cylindrical 
and closely joined as in female. Length, 3.6 millimeters. 
Described from 1 male and 1 female, collected at Sandakan, 
Borneo (C. F’. Baker).

Genus ALLOCYNIPS Kieffer 
In addition to the characters given by Kieffer the following 
notes apply to all the species seen. Head broader than thorax, 
not broadened behind eyes. Malar space without groove. 
Cheeks margined. Antennz 13-segmented in female, 14-seg- 
mented in male, filiform, all flagellar segments cylindrical in both 
sexes, segment 3 always shorter than 4. Truncation of pro- 
thorax nearly as broad as pronotum, margined, hind margin of 
pronotum forming a sharp rim raised above the level of adjacent 
mesoscutum and with or without an erect median tooth. Meso- 
scutum coarsely sculptured, low-arched. Scutellum without spine 
behind. Propodeum with its distinct neck for attachment of 
abdomen as far from hind coxe as from metanotum, the usual 
carine stout, curved outward, inclosing an area crossed above 
the middle by a horizontal ridge, above which is a single median, 
and below two fainter longitudinal ridges. Wing margin ciliate, 
areolet and costal hinge wanting. Petiole longitudinally ridged, 
as long as broad in only one species (female unknown). Abdo- 
men somewhat compressed in the females. In side view tergite 
4 is largest in the males and 5 in the females, 2 and 3 and 2 to 4 
not liguliform. In the females all the tergites back of 2 are
