closely longitudinally striated; the middle at the apex smooth, 

 brownish. Four hinder tarsi and the apex of hind tibiae broadly 

 black. Costal and anal nervures distinct, reaching to the apex ; 

 the radius as long as the stigma. Mesopleural furrow, wide, mode- 

 rately deep, irregularly crenulated. Metapleurae aciculated. First 

 abdominal segment longer than the second ; its apical half distinctly 

 dilated.

MACEOCENTRUS, Curt. 



Maceocenteus capensis, sp. nov. 



Testaceous ; the antennae, ocellar region, metanotum, basal seg- 

 ment of abdomen, the greater part of the second and the apical, 

 black ; wings hyaline, the nervures and stigma dark fuscous. ? . 



Length 7 mm. ; terebra 6 mm. 



Cape Colony. Fraserburg Distr. 



Head and thorax closely minutely punctured, sparsely pilose ; 

 the metanotum transversely closely rugose. Middle lobe of meso- 

 notum raised, distinctly separated, the furrows deep, obscurely 

 crenvilated. The furrow on the centre of propleurae wide, striated. 

 First abdominal segment clearly longer than the second, obscurely, 

 finely irregularly striated towards the apex ; the second finely, 

 closely, regularly striated throughout ; the base of the third closely 

 striated. There is no furrow on the mesopleurae. First abscissa of 

 radius as long as the second ; longer than the thickness of the 

 stigma. Transverse median nervure received beyond the trans- 

 verse basal, almost interstitial ; the recurrent nervure received in 

 the first cubital cellule. Calcaria about one-fourth of the length 

 of metatarsus. Second cubital cellule below more than twice 

 longer than the width of the apex ; in front about one-fourth longer. 

 Palpi long, their third joint as long as the third antennal joint. 

 Apical joint of hind trochanters apparently denticulate at apex 

 below. 



This species agrees fairly well with Macrocentrus as now defined.

MINANGA, gen. nov. 



Abdomen not segmented, its apex entire, closely serrate. First 



cubital and first discoidal cellule separated; transverse median 



nervure received in discoidal cellule, not interstitial ; second cubital 



cellule twice longer than wide, of equal width throughout. Radius
