144 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



brownish, the venation black. Eyes red, the ocelH darker red. 

 Antennae with the scape and pedicel brown, the remaining joints 

 black. 



Head and thorax very finely reticulately punctate; abdomen 

 tapering at base, but not petiolate, strongly compressed. Ocelli 

 distant from the eyes. Propodeum with larger reticulate punc- 

 tures, its dorsum rounded, without a median carina. Postmar- 

 ginal vein twice the length of the stigmal, the marginal very long, 

 not much shorter than the submarginal. Distal third of scutellum 

 and the mesopostscutellum smooth, but finely, closely, polygonally 

 reticulated. Proximal abdominal segments, with very minute 

 pin-purictures, the distal segments glabrous. Posterior coxae 

 sculptured like the postscutellum, the posterior femur beneath 

 armed with nine large, black, unequal teeth ; the first (proximal), 

 eighth and ninth largest; the latter stoutest, triangular, tooth 8 

 longest, columnar; the seventh next to the shortest, paired — that 

 is, a bidentate, erect plate; the two dentations here counted as 

 separate teeth, though united at base; the two teeth equal; teeth 

 4 and 5 unequal, also more or less united at base; tooth 2 shortest, 

 obtuse, nipplelike. 



Antenna? ins-erted in the middle of the face, 13-jointed, the 

 funicle filiform, but its distal joint widening somewhat, becoming 

 wider than long; scape simple, not as long as the club; pedicel 

 somewhat longer than the first funicle joint; joint 2 of funicle 

 longest, joint 3 next, the distal joint shortest; joint 5 subequal 

 in length to the pedicel, the following funicle joints all shorter, 

 club joints nearly equal, the distal one slightly the longest.
