Superfamily ICHNEUMONOIDEA 397 



mesochori Ashmead. Conn., Pa., N. C, S. C, Ark. Host: Apanteles congregatus (Say). 



Ashmead gave D. C. as the type locality, but the syntypes were actually sent to Riley 



from Norwalk, Conn, by D. N. Couch.

 washingtonensis (Cushman). Maine, N. H., N. Y., Mich. Townes (1970) placed this species as a 

 synonym of alticola, but I have examined the holotypes of both and doubt that he is 

 correct.

Genus INDOVIA Seyrig 



Indovia Seyrig, 1952. Acad. Malgache, Mem. 39: 132. 



Type-species: Indovia decorata Seyrig. Orig. desig. 



Townes (1970) synonymized Indovia with Stiboscopus Foerster, but a correction of the 

 type-species of Stiboscopus from Stiboscopus thoracicus Ashmead to Hemiteles mandibularis 

 Provancher makes Stiboscopus a synonym of Lysibia (which see). Heviiteles pinifoliae Cushman 

 and Alegina laricellae Mason, which were placed in Stiboscopus by Townes, do not belong in hi- 

 dovia and are here left in the subtribe Mastrina where they are placed provisionally in Mastrus.

 maculithorax (Ashmead), n. comb. Fla.; Puerto Rico, Virgin Isls., Lesser Antilles. Host: 



Apanteles sp. There is a specimen in the U. S. Natl. Mus. collection which was reared 

 from an Apanteles cocoon in 1927 at Sanford, Fla. by W. E. Stone.
