ON THE SCOTTISH SPECIES OF OXYURA 

 (PXOCTOTRYPID^PART V. 1 



By PETER CAMERON. 



IN this part of the Catalogue of the Scottish Oxyura I 

 have dealt with the Diapriincs, and have recorded 47 species 

 known to me from Scotland, namely, 14 of the tribe 

 Spiloinicrini and 33 of the tribe Diapriini. Of these 35 

 have been described by Dr. Kieffer as new species. I give 

 also, within square brackets, the localities of 6 new species 

 from England and 2 from Spain. Spilomicrus compressus, 

 Thorns., is also an addition to the British Fauna. Marshall, 

 in his Catalogue published by the Entomological Society 

 of London, records 1 3 genera and 5 2 British species of 

 DiapriincE. Most of the species recorded in this Catalogue 

 not taken by me, have been described by C. G. Thomson 

 from Scandinavia and by Marshall himself from England. 

 Not much appears to be known regarding the early stages 

 of the DiapriincE. Some have been bred from gall-making 

 Diptera.
