410 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



grooved line, caudad ; stigmal vein with a nipple-like projection just 

 before the apex ( = uncus). , 



Scape of the antennae about as long as the combined length of the 

 pedicel and the two following joints, slightly dilated ventrad at its middle, 

 cylindrical ; pedicel obconical, about three-fourths the length of the first 

 funicle joint and not as wide ; joint i of funicle rectangular, narrower, but 

 one-fourth longer than funicle joint 2, which is about equal in length to the 

 pedicel and subquadrate, but longer than wide and somewhat larger than 

 funicle joint 3 ; the latter shorter and quadrate, distinctly smaller than the 

 basal club joint, its peduncle subobsolete ; funicle joints i and 2 with a 

 short stout peduncle on one side of the apex, the opposite apical margin 

 inclining obliquely to it ; club about as long as the pedicel and second 

 funicle joint united, about, or less than, half the length of the funicle, 

 the proximal joint subequal to funicle joint i, more than twice the size of 

 the apical joint, which is smaller than the pedicel and regularly conical 

 and acute at apex. Antennae hispid-pubescent with white hairs, which 

 arise from tuberculate spots, making the funicular and club joints rough. 

 Antennae cylindrical. 



From one specimen, ^-inch objective, 2-inch optic. Bausch and 

 Lomb. 



Male. — Length, 1.20 mm. The same. 



Body less robust, smaller, the abdomen regularly ovate, the second 

 abdominal segment large, as in the female, and widest, the others some- 

 what retracted into it ; genitalia exserted in death, the body of the abdo- 

 men not as long as the thorax, about as long when including the petiole ; 

 the latter slenderer and more distinct, its sculpture slightly more delicate. 

 Eyes slightly larger, the cheeks, therefore, not as long as in the female. 



Pubescence of funicle and club more pilose in appearance, softer. 

 The antennae differ as described in foregoing ; scape slightly shorter, not 

 quite equal to the combined lengths of the three following joints ; pedicel 

 about the same \ first funicle joint and the club longest of the flagellum? 

 subequal, the club larger, a third longer than joints 2, 3 and 4 of the 

 funicle, all of which are subequal and quadrate ; the second funicle joint a 

 little irregular ; peduncles of the funicle joints about as in the female, but 

 that of the 4th joint longer in the male than that of the 3rd funicle joint 

 in the female and more mesad ; club joint ending in an acute spine-like 

 projection ; club equal to less than a half of the length of the funicle. 

 Antennae filiform as a whole.
