218 TWO NEW SPECIES OF ICHNEUMONID.E, 



hind femora narrowly, the apex more broadly and irregularly, the 

 mark above as long as the long spur of the hind tibiae, the base of 

 the tibiae more narrowly, the apical three-fourths, the black 

 irregular at the top, the spurs and the apical two joints of the 

 tarsi, bhick, the rest of the tibiae and tarsi white. Wings hyaline, 

 stigma and nervures black; areolet almost square, but slightly 

 narrowed in front, i-eceiving the recurrent nervure at the base of 

 the apical fourth; the transverse median nervure placed shortly, 

 but clearly behind the transverse basal; transverse cubital nervure 

 in hind-wings broken near the top of apical fourth. 5. Length, 

 13; terebra, 3 mm.(Elgner Coll.; in March). 



Head smooth, the face and, less sti'ongly, the clypeus, somewhat 

 strongly punctured, Frontal spine, seen laterally, is triangular, 

 ending in a stout spine, rounded at the top. Ocellar region 

 raised; the ocelli placed in a wide curve, close to the occiput; the 

 latter is transverse. Temples very slightly developed. Malar 

 space on the outerside as long as the scape. Mesonotum at the 

 base transverse, the sides rounded ; smooth, \\'ithout furrows. 

 Scutellum smooth, its furrow strongly crenulated. Base of meta- 

 notum with a wide, not ver^- strongly limited, area in the centre; 

 it is smooth as are also the parts bordering it; the centre finely, 

 closely strial-ed; the outerside closely punctured; the part between 

 the keel and the top of the apical slope sparsely punctured, 

 especially in the middle. Upper part of propleurae, except at the 

 base, distinctly, but not closely or strongly punctured, the rest 

 strongly, longitudinally striated. Mesopleurae closely, irregularly 

 striated below the tubercles, the rest closely, finely punctui-ed, 

 except in the central apical part. Metapleurie strongly, closely, 

 almost rugosely punctured. Metanotum witli the sides at the 

 apex broadly rounded, above with a blunt, not very distinct 

 nipple-like point. Petiole smooth, postpetiole, second and tiiird 

 .segments closely puncturefl, the puncturation becoming gradually 

 finer; gastracoeli shallow, smooth.
