624 FAUNA HAWAIIENSIS 



Wings slightly yellowish tinged, the neuration yellowish, the stigmal vein paler. 

 Abdomen with the basal segment regularly strongly striate, the second much more 

 finely striate and crenate along the basal margin, the third very finely rugulosely 

 punctate or subaciculate, the following very minutely punctured and hardly shining. 

 Length 275 mm. 



The male, which no doubt belongs to this female, agrees very closely with it in 

 sculpture, but is generally more elongate. The antennae are filiform, becoming 

 attenuate apically, the pedicel is very small, the funicle joints are subequal in length, 

 mostly about twice as long as wide, the apical joint much longer than the preceding and 

 pointed. Hind coxae and hind and middle tibiae dark brown or dark fuscous, much 

 darker than in the female. Allied to A. perkinsi Ashm. but with different sculpture of 

 the abdomen and slightly different in other points. 



Hab. Oahu ; in the mountains, the male commoner than the female. 



(2) Anteris oahuensis. sp. nov. 



Female : head black, the mesonotum ferruginous, scutellum, except the margin, 

 postscutellum and propodeum more or less darkly infuscate, abdomen obscure dark 

 brown. Antennae testaceous, the funicle more sordid, the club nearly black. Legs 

 yellow, tarsi appearing darker from the clothing of black hairs. 



Head somewhat coarsely sculptured, punctate and transversely rugose, funicle 

 joints of antennae slender, the first three not differing much in length, and each several 

 times as long as wide, fourth joint much shorter than the third, but considerably longer 

 than wide, basal joint of club not at all strongly transverse, and only a little narrower than 

 the following. Mesonotum and scutellum very finely punctured, postscutellum longitu- 

 dinally rugose, with rounded well-raised posterior margin, not at all angulate ; propodeum 

 emarginate posteriorly, its hind margin raised. Basal segment of the abdomen striate 

 and with a smoother median elevation on its basal half, second more finely striate, third 

 and fourth still more finely so, fifth and sixth very finely punctured. Wings lightly 

 infuscate, veins yellow. Length 3 -5 mm.

Caloteleia Westw. 



(i) Caloteleia elegans, sp. nov. 



Ferruginous, the funicle joints of the antennae, the scape, legs, base of second and 

 of the terminal abdominal segment paler in colour, more yellow, but these parts them- 

 selves are not uniform in tint. Five apical joints of the antennae, third, fourth and fifth 

 abdominal segments, most of the second and the apical part of the sixth, black. Pedicel 

 of the antennae and basal club joint more or less infuscate, but not black, apex of
