'Bymenojdn^a. 159 



bordered by a longer, narrow area, which, at the apex, extends 

 beyond it : the apical slope forms one area, which is squarely 

 narrowed at the base to the size of the basal one. Pleurge smooth; 

 there are 6 depressions, bordered by stout keels on the lower side 

 of the meso- ; the penultimate is as long as the preceding 2 united. 

 Legs densely pilose; the areolet is almost square ; the stump of a 

 nervure on the 2nd transverse cubital is at the base. 



EVANIID.E. 



Gasteruption dunhrfxhjense, sp. nov. 



Rufo-ferruginous ; the front, greater part of vertex, greater 

 part of thorax above, a large triangular mark (the nai-rowed part 

 below) on the base of mesopleuras, the greater part of their apex 

 below, the metapleura?, except narrowly at the base and apex, 

 metanotum, greater part of metapleurse and the apical segments of 

 the abdomen above, black. Legs similarly coloured : the hind 

 tibife broadly white at the base below. Wings clear hyaline. 

 Antennae dark rufous^ the basal 4 joints black. Female, 



Length 13, terebra 14 mm. 



Antennae short, stout ; the 3rd joint as long as the scape and 

 pedicle united ; the 4th slightly longer than the 3rd. Malar space 

 as long as the pedicle of antennae ; the middle of clypeus separated 

 from the face by a distinct furrow. Temples long, roundly 

 narrowed to the vertex, which is almost transverse. Pronotum 

 longer than its width at the apex. Mesothorax irregularly rugose, 

 its base rounded ; the apical depression of mesopleurae striated, 

 except above the middle ; metanotum ii-regularly transversely 

 i-eticulated, its centre with a raised longitudinal line. The whole 

 thorax is thickly covered with silvery pubescence. The 4 anterior 

 tibite and tarsi are white in front. Hind coxa3 smooth. Hind 

 ocelli separated by the length of antennal scape. Hind ocelli 

 placed distinctly behind the eyes. 



Comes near to G. punctnlaUan : that species may be sepai-ated 

 l)y the hind ocelli being placed in front of the hinder edge of tha 

 eyes, by the shorter temples and shorter 3rd joint of antennne.
