PIMPLINAE. 
Perithous divinator, Rossi. — Poyntzpass, in Ma.y. It is usually bred from 
bramble stems. I took it on the wing. 
Pimpla brevicornis, Grav. — Coolmore, in September. 
P. detrita, Holmgr. — Poyntzpass, in October, on the wing. 
P. examinator, Fab. — Poyntzpass, in May, among herbage on roadside. 
P. turionellae, Linne. — Coolmore, in September ; Poyntzpass, in August. 
Glypta elongata, Holmgr. — Coolmore, in September. 
G. monocerus, Grav. — Coolmore, in September. Neither this nor the 
preceding species seems to be common, and all the records are from 
the south of England. 
G. ceratitis, Grav. — Poyntzpass, in August. 
G. genalis, Moll. — Coolmore, in September. Apparently very rare. 
G. parvicaudata, Bridg. — Coolmore, in September. Rare. Mr. Morley 
(■■ British Ichneumons," vol. iii., p. 162), says that a pair were bred 
out of Hypsipetes ruberata from Stornoway, in May, and that lie 
knows of two other specimens also bred. JMine, which are two 
females, were taken on flowers of Wild Carrot. 
G. lugubrina, Holmgr. — Coolmore, in x\ugust. 
Lissonota bellator, Grav. — Coolmore, in August and September. 
L. variipes, Desv. — Coolmore, in August and September. Both species 
were abundant on flowers of Wild Carrot.

L. femorata, Holmgr. — Poyntzpass, in July. 
L. transversa, Bridg. — Coolmore, in August. 
Lampronota caligata, Grav. — Newcastle, in August, on sandhills.
