Cleonymus submersus, sp. nov. (Fig. 17.) 



Female. Length 7 mm. Entirely black, with slightly 

 infuscated wings. Head as seen from above rounded in 

 outline, narrower than the thorax which is elongate, two 

 and one-half times as long as wide. Abdomen elongate, 

 conic ovate, its segments, except possibly the basal two, 

 of nearly equal length. Wings very thickly pubescent, 

 with stout dark venation; marginal vein long, one-half 

 the length of the submarginal; stigmal short and stout, 

 thicker at the apex, postmarginal as long as the marginal, 

 but attenuated beyond its basal part. 



Type.— No. 2101, M. C. Z., Florissant, Col. (No. 

 9109, S. H. Seudder Coll.). 



This is not a very well preserved specimen, but is 

 striking on account of its large size and acuminate 

 abdomen. 



PTEROMALIDAE. 



Aside from Heer's ('65), doubtful genus Pteromalinites Helm ('99) 

 has recorded Pteromalus from Amber, but without description or 

 figure. I have one species of Pteromalus from Florissant.
