Superfamily ICHNEUMONOIDEA 503 



belfragei (Cresson), n. comb. La., Tex., e. Wyo., s. w. Utah. The discovery of two females in the 

 collection of the U. S. Natl. Museum shows that this species should be removed from 

 Melanichneunion (see Heinrich, 1959) and placed in Richtichneumon by virtue of 

 general agreement with Heinrich's definition of the latter.
