 orbits (broadly) white ; mandibles rufous with black teeth, sometimes black at base ; 

 tarsi dark brown, the tibiae sometimes more or less brownish. 



The antennae are as long as or a little longer than the body. Ocelli very large, 

 the lateral contiguous to the eye margin. The face below the insertion of the antennae 

 is finely punctate, the clypeus black or rufo-piceous, finely transversely aciculate, the 

 labrum somewhat prominent or exposed and always rufo-piceous. The metathorax 

 is rugulose, with the first transverse carina present, enclosing a smooth area at base. 

 Wings sub-hyaline, the stigma and veins brown-black, a testaceous spot between the 

 stigma and parastigma, while the disco-cubital cell has one small blister-like spot. 

 Abdomen about twice as long as the head and thorax united, strongly compressed 

 from the second segment, smooth, shining, and impunctate, but clothed with a fine, 

 fuscous coloured, sericeous pubescence.

(2) Enicospiljis kaalae, sp. nov. 



?, ,?. Length from 17 to 22 mm. Head yellowish white, the occiput and a 

 broad band extending from the front ocellus to the tip of the clypeus black ; mandibles 

 reddish with the tip or teeth black ; palpi brownish-yellow ; antennae brown-black, 

 extending to beyond the middle of the abdomen, the scape beneath, and the pedicel 

 and ring-joint at apex, rufous ; the first joint of the tiagellum is nearly as long as joints 

 2 and 3 united ; the ocelli are large, the lateral touching the eye margin ; the thorax, 

 most of the legs, and the first segment of the abdomen are black, the rest of the 

 abdomen except the three or four terminal segments, which are more or less blackish 

 or dusky, is rufous ; all tibiae and tarsi rufous ; wings hyaline or faintly tinged, the 

 lanceolate stigma and venation brown-black, the disco-cubital cell with one small 

 blister-like spot. 



The head and thorax are almost smooth, or feebly, closely, microscopically punctate, 

 the scutellum with elevated lateral margins, the sides of the thorax opaque, very finely, 

 closely punctate, while the metathorax is finely rugulose, with a transverse carina at 

 about its basal third. The abdomen is about two and a half times as long as the 

 head and thorax united, compressed, with the first segment subclavate, very little 

 longer than the second. 



The male agrees well with the female, except that the antennae are a little longer 

 than the body, obscure rufous or brownish, the abdomen a little differently coloured, 

 the first and second segments being black, while the third to fifth are rufous.
