618 Hymenoptera in America North of Mexico 



This is a very large genus represented in all zoogeographic regions. The name Labrorychus 

 was for many years incorrectly applied to a large part of the species in this genus because of an 

 erroneous type-species designation by Viereck (1914). The names Trichonotus and Trichionotus 

 were more recently applied to most of the species which had been in Labrorychus auct., but 

 Gauld (1976) has suppressed them as synonyms of Agrypon. Gauld apparently did not know 

 more than a few species intermediate between Agrypon and Trichionotus, but the discussion by 

 Schmid (1970, p. 1539) appears to support Gauld's suppression of Trichionotus.

Agrypon boreale Ashmead, 1890 (1889). U. S. Natl. Mus., Proc. 12: 424. 9. The label of the 

 holotype reads: "Ft. McLeod, Brit. Amer.; Aug., 1882." British America being 

 synonymous with Canada, it is not altogether certain that the type-locality is Ft. 

 McLeod, B. C. rather than Ft. Macleod in southern Alta. (the latter being spelled [or 

 misspelled] McLeod in an 1886 Atlas belonging to me). The two places should be 

 different enough ecologically for this question to be resolved with relative certainty.

 flaveolatum (Gravenhorst). N. S.?; Eurasia. A species identified as A. flaveolatum was 



introduced in N. S. from 1956 through 1958, and A. flaveolatum has been reported as 

 being established there. Host: Operophtera bruniata (L.). Schmid (1970) stated that 

 Agrypon provancheri (Dalla Torre) may be a subspecies or synonym of A. Jlaveolat^nn; 

 therefore, it needs to be corroborated that the species that is said to have been 

 recovered in N. S. is not the one that had already been there prior to any releases of 

 individuals from Europe, or, otherwise, that the introduced species really is A. 

 flaveolatum. The host cited was the target species for releases in N. S. of the species 

 identified as A. flaveolatum.
