Type locality —LuzON, Manila. 
Type.—Catalogue No. 22347, United States National Museum. 
Host.—Acrocercops sp. 
Described from 2 female specimens, received from Prof. 
Charles S. Banks, of the College of Agriculture, University 
of the Philippines, accession No. 18477. Professor Banks bred 
the specimens from the cocoons of a moth the larva of which 
feeds on Cxsalpinia pulcherrima (L..) Sw. The moth, specimens 
of which were received along with the parasite, has been deter- 
mined by Mr. August Busck as Acrocercops sp., a gracillarid. 
EULOPHIDAs 
Pleurotropis anomala sp. nov. 
While a typical Pleurotropis in every other respect, this species 
differs markedly from any other species known to the writer 
in the conformation of ‘the mesoscutum, 
Female.—Length, 1.5 millimeters. Head viewed from in front 
smooth and polished above the transverse groove; vertex divided 
by a distinct, shallow groove running from the anterior ocellus 
posteriorly to the occipital carinze; between the transverse groove 
and base of antennz reticulated and subopaque; below the an- 
tennz smooth and polished; eyes with their medial margins 
slightly emarginate; posterior orbits very narrow; antenne 
inserted near clypeus; scape slightly fusiform; pedicel pyriform, 
approximately one-third as long as scape and slightly shorter 
than the first funicle joint; funicle 3-jointed, the joints subequal 
and all distinctly shortly pedicellate at apex; club conic-ovate, 
about one and one-half times the length of third funicle joint, 
2-jointed, the second joint terminating in a distinct spine; dor- 
sal portion of pronotum polished and delicately margined an- 
teriorly, the declivitous portion sculptured; mesoscutum with a 
straight, deep, transverse fold across the middle connecting the 
parapsidal grooves; behind this fold and extending to the pos- 
terior margin of the mesoscutum a deep, broad, rectangular de- 
pression divided by a median longitudinal ridge and homologous 
with the two shallow fovee at the posterior end of the parap- 
sidal grooves found in other species of the genus; depressed area 
of the mesoscutum perfectly smooth, remainder of mesoscutum 
and the scutellum delicately reticulate, interstices rather large 
and polished, those at base of scutellum longitudinally elongate 
and the median base of scutellum with a small area which is not 
reticulated; axilla polished; propodeum polished and with del- 
icate carine, the two median carine rather strongly diverging
