ANISOJOPPA, gen. nov. 



Metanotum depressed at the base ; closely, strongly longitudinally 

 reticulated, without areae or keels ; the sides at the top of the apical 

 slope with broad teeth ; it is longer than wide ; the apex with a 

 steep, oblique slope ; the spiracles long, linear. Scutellum not much 

 raised above the level of the mesonotum ; the sides stoutly keeled ; 

 the apex with a long, oblique slope. Sides of post-scutellum keeled. 

 Antennae not much dilated, the apex narrowed. Apex of clypeus 

 transverse ; its sides above bordei'ed by oblique foveae, the centre not 

 separated from the face by a furrow. Labrum short, visible. Eyes 

 large, slightly incised on the inner side above ; the malar space small. 

 Abdomen twice as long as the head and thox-ax united ; closely 

 punctured ; the gastrocoeli deep, transversely oblique ; there are 

 eight segments ; the ovipositor long, projecting. Wings short 

 compared with the body ; the areolet 5-angled ; the disco-cubital 

 nervure broken ; transverse median nervure received shortly beyond 

 the transverse basal. Body longer than usual ; the colour uniformly 

 luteous, with hyaline wings. Antennae ringed with white. 



The absence of areae and keels on the median segment, the strong 

 spines on it, the long projecting ovipositor and long, unicolorous 

 body are characteristic of this genus. 



Anisojoppa lutea, sp. nov. 



Luteous, the sides of the thorax paler in colour ; the fiagellum of 

 antennae black except at the base, the seventh to twelfth joints 

 white ; wings hyaline, the base slightly tinged with fulvous ; the 

 stigma and nervures black ; the apex of the sheaths of the ovipositor 

 black. ? . 



Length 16 mm. 



Face and clypeus sparsely punctured in the middle, covered with 

 short white pubescence ; they are whitish yellow ; the inner orbits 

 are bright lemon-yellow above. Temples wide, sharply obliquely 

 narrowed; the occiput margined. Mesonotum closely, almost 

 rugosely punctured, thickly covered with a short fuscous pubes- 

 cence. Scutellum more strongly punctured, roundly depressed at 

 the base and apex ; the keels are stout, highest at the base ; that on 

 the apex not so high as that on the sides ; the sides striated, the 

 apical slope smooth. Post-scutellum smooth, the sides obscurely 

 striated. The basal slope of metanotum is depressed, obscurely 

 punctured, its top keeled ; the rest stoutly longitudinally-transversely
