Porricondyla fultonensis n. sp. 



This male was taken probably on June 17, 1916, by Mr. C. 

 P. Alexander at Woodworth's Lake, Fulton County, New 

 York, and forwarded for determination in December, 1918. 

 Tt falls in the series with sixteen antennal segments and is 

 allied to P. canadcnsis Felt and P. dilatata Felt, from both of 

 which it is easily separated by antennal differences as well as 

 other structural characteristics. 



<5 . Length 2 mm. Antennae a little longer than the bodv, thickly 

 haired, dark brown, the stems whitish transparent, 16 segments, the 

 5th with a stem i% the length of the basal enlargement, which latter 

 has a length 2^4 times its diameter. Terminal segment slightly pro- 

 duced and with a subglobose node apically. Palpi : first segment with 

 a length nearly three times its diameter, the second a little shorter, the 

 third at least the length of the second, and the fourth nearly twice 

 the length of the third and somewhat compressed. 



Mesonotum dark reddish brown, the submedian lines sparsely haired. 

 Scutellum and postscutellum yellowish orange. 



Abdomen sparsely haired, dark brown, genitalia reddish yellow. 

 Halteres mostly dark brown, fuscous yellowish apically. Legs mostly 

 fuscous straw ; coxae dark brown. Claws stout, simple, the pulvilli 

 about half the length of the claws. 



Genitalia : basal clasp segment broad, sparsely setose, terminal clasp 

 segment as long as the basal clasp segment, slightly curved, moder- 

 ately stout, tapering at both extremities. Dorsal plate short, broad, 

 rather deeply and roundly emarginate, ventral plate a little longer, 

 broad and broadly rounded. 



Type a2Q53.
