Eymenoptera. 135 



Anoplius (?) ccenoceras, sp. nov. 



Black ; the wings uniformly fuscous-violaceous ; head, 

 antennal scape, and prosternum, thickly covered with long black 

 hair ; 2nd abscissa of radius about one fourth longer than the 

 3rd ; 1st recurrent nervure received shortly beyond, the 2nd 

 shortly before middle of cellule. Antennte as long as the head 

 and thorax united ; thick ; the 1st and 2nd joints of flagellum 

 about equal in length ; the base of the middle joints slightly 

 obliquely incised ; the underside of the 6th to 9th projecting into 

 a short spine. Occiput rounded, short, the malar space forming 

 part of the segment of the circle. IMalar space small. Hinder 

 ocelli separated from the eyes by a slightly gi-eater distance 

 than they are from each other. Apex of clypeus broadly rounded. 

 Eyes slightly converging below. Mandibles long, piceous at the 

 apex ; the apical tooth long, sharp, the subapical small. Median 

 segment longer than its width at the apex ; it has a fiat, gradually 

 rounded slope to the apex. Tibite and tarsi minutely spined ; the 

 4 front claws bifid ; the inner tooth shorter than the outer ; the 

 hind claw greatly more thickened, larger, curved and with 2 

 smaller teeth at the apex. Median segment transversely rugose, 

 thickly covered with short black pubescence ; 1st abdominal 

 segment longer than 2nd ; at base half the width of apex ; it 

 becomes gradually wider. 



The 1st and 3rd transverse cubital nervures are obliquely bent 

 in front ; the transverse median nervure is receivf^d beyond the 

 transverse median ; the cubitus in hind wings originates beyond 

 the transverse median ; the long spur of hind calcaria reaches to 

 middle of metatarsus. 



This is not an Anopliits as now limited. Probably when the 

 female is discovered it will be found to be the type of a new genus. 

 In Ashmead's arrangement it comes near Pompilhius. The long 

 hair on the head, the short, thick, peculiarly incised middle joints 

 of antennffi and thick, sharply curved hind claws are 3 noteworthy 

 charactei's. 



Pseudagenia longitarsis, sp. nov. 



Black, the antennas, head, the prothorax (except for an 

 elongated triangular mark on the pleuras and the sternum which 

 are black) the mesonotum and scutellum dark ferruginous ; legs 

 red, the 1 front coxffi broadly at the base and the hinder entirely 

 black ; the hind tarsi infuscated ; wings uniformly dark fuscous- 

 violaceous. Male.
