 pus of the more generalized wing and is perhaps homologous 

 with it.

Stigmal. Fig. 11, CH. 



A stump of a vein which projects more or less obliquely from the 

 anterior margin into the body of the wing in Hymenoptera which 

 have the venation reduced to one longitudinal vein. This vein 

 occupies the position of the radius of the more generalized wing 

 and is perhaps homologous with it.

ALPHABETICAL LIST OF SYNONYMS. 



EXPLANATORY NOTE. 



Throughout this list the words "first," "cell," "area," "cellule," 

 "nervus," "erste," "vena," etc., when used as a part of any cell or vein 

 have either been dropped or placed after the name of the vein or cell, 

 e.g., First recurrent will be found under Recurrent [1st] etc. It has been 

 found advisable to make a separate list (see p. 62) of synonyms for those 

 systems which make extensive use of symbols.
