 Ovipositor yellow ; antennae only about as long as head and thorax

The antennae of this species have a peculiar twisted appear-

 the latter locality, and I have a Stockton male compared with 

 it. The Stockton co-type was sent to the British Museum, and 

 found to agree with Grote's type of flava, a male from British 

 Columbia, collected by J. R. Crotch, according to the descrip- 

 tion. Grote also mentions a specimen from Colorado, from T.
