358 NEW ZEALAND AND AUSTRALIAN PARASITIC HYMENOPTERA, 



Subfamily xv — BEACONING. 

 This subfamily I have separated into three tribes, as follows: — 



Submedian cell in front wings mucb shorter 



than the median; eyes very large, 



extending clear to the base of mandibles, 



the face very narrow. Tribe i. — Aphrastobraconini. 



Submedian and median cells in front wings 



equal; eyes non-extending to base of 



mandibles Tribe ii. — Braconini. 



Submedian cell very distinctly longer than 



the median; eyes normal Tribe iii. — Euurobraconini. 



(The type of Euurobracon, Ashm., is Bracon penetrator, Smith, described 

 from Japan). 



Tribe ii.— Braconini. 



Genus Callibracon, Ashmead, n.g. 



This new genus falls in between Melanobracon, Ashrn., and 

 Coeliodes, Wesmael, agreeing, however, more nearly with the former, 

 especially in regard to the venation of the front wings. The two 

 genera may be separated as follows : — 



Scape rather long, cylindrical, truncate at apex, 



the pedicel much shorter than the first joint 



of flagellum, the third flagellar joint shorter 



than either the first or second; second dorsal 



abdominal segment with oblique lateral 



depressions Melanobracon, Ashm. 



Scape subglobose, obliquely truncate from above, 



the pedicel small, annular, scarcely one-third 



the length of the first joint of the flagellum, 



the second and third flagellar joints equal, 



scarcely so long as wide, shorter than the 



first; abdomen banded with white Callibracon, Ashm., n.g. 



(60) Callibracon limbatus, Brulle. 



Bracon limbatus, Brulle, Hym. iv. p. 433.
