Male. Entirely green, the abdomen slightly bronzed above. An- 

 tennas wholly black. Coxae and femoras, except apically, dark brown, 

 the tibiae, tarsi, and apices of femoraa pale yellow. Body sculpture 

 similar to that of the female. 



Habitat: College Park, Maryland. 



Type: No. 14356, U. S. National Museum. 



Eight female and six male specimens collected by Mr. E. 

 N. Cory, July 19, 1909, in a room in which were stored quan- 

 tities of meal and other ground feed badly infested with several 

 different coleopterous and lepidopterous pests of this class of 

 stored products. It is probably, though not certainly, para- 

 sitic on some insect which infests stored cereals. 



The species differs from D. aureoviridis Crwfd. in the 

 female having all of the coxae honey-yellow instead of green 

 and in the absence of any green markings on the abdomen. 

 The sculpture of the propodium is also slightly different. The 

 males are not distinguishable.

Body metallic. Head transverse, seen from in front slightly broad- 

 er than long; cheeks half the length of the eyes; eyes bare, nearly 

 circular, converging above and extending to the occiput; vertex rather 

 narrow; frons somewhat flattened, finely punctate, and with numerous

 nearly equilateral triangle, the two lateral close to but not touching 

 the eye margins; antennae 11-jointed, inserted below the eyes, the 

 scrobes triangular; scape slender, not reaching to the front ocellus; 

 pedicel shorter than the first funicle joint; funicle joints thickened, 

 cylindrical, the first joint slightly the longest, following joints sub- 

 equal, one and a half times as long as wide; the club is flattened, not 

 as long as half the funicle, its apex bluntly rounded, the first joint 

 slightly longer than wide, the two following transverse. Thorax ro- 

 bust; mesoscutum short and broad, not more than half as long as wide 

 and very finely shagreened; scutellum convex, as long as the meso- 

 scutum, rounded posteriorly and delicately sculptured; metathorax 

 smooth, impunctate, and without pubescence. Wings hyaline; the 

 marginal vein short, not much longer than thick; postmarginal shorter

 female in having the club of the antennas shorter than the two pre- 

 ceding funicle joints, the funicle joints hairy, not especially thickened,
