(32) Apanteles schizurse, n. sp. 



(-J 1 . Length 1.8 to 2 mm. Head and thorax black, sericeous; la- 

 brum and mandibles ferruginous ; palpi and tegulae white ; legs brownish - 

 yellow, the anterior pair a little the paler ; hind coxse black, tips of hind 

 femora, tips of their tibiae and their tarsi fuscous. 



Head above and behind polished, impunctate, face_feebly microscopic 

 ally punctate ; antennae a little longer than the body, brown-black. Thorax 

 at sides and beneath, shining; the mesonotum opaque, minutely, densely 

 punctate; scutellum shining, sparsely punctate; mesopleura anteriorly 

 closely punctate, on disk and posteriorly smooth, shining; metathorax 

 finely rugulose, subopaque, with a distinct median carina ; wings hyaline, 

 with the stigma and poststigmal vein brown, the other nervures paler; 

 there is a bulla at the inner fork of the areolet, and the upper fork of the 

 areolet is two-thirds the length of the first abscissa of radius. Abdomen 

 not quite as long as the head and thorax united, black, except thejateral 

 membranous margins of the first segment and the sides of venter at 

 base, usually hidden by the hind coxae, which are piceous or reddish ; the 

 first and second segments are finely rugulose, the second less distinctly 

 so, or much more finely sculptured, with a very slight indication of a 

 median ridge at base : the plate of the first segment is trapezoidal, scarcely 

 i^ times as long as wide, while the second segment is a little shorter than 

 the third, the fourth is about half the length of the third, the following 

 very slightly and gradually shorter. 



The male differs in no particular from the female, except the antennas 

 are longer, being i^ times as long as the body, ferruginous beneath ; 

 while the abdomen is much narrower, with the ridge on the second dorsal 

 segment complete. 



Hab. Canobie Lake, N. H. 



Described from many specimens bred by Dr. Geo. Dimmock, 

 from larva of Schizura unicornis ; also, from many specimens 

 in U. S. National Museum, bred from same larva. 



The species structurally comes nearest to A. scitulus Riley, 

 but differs decidedly in colorational detail and in sculpture.
