326 Alhnny Miispum Records. 



coxae, trochanters and femora to near the apex, black. Wings 

 fnscons violaceous, the nervures and stigma black. Male. 



Length 10 mm. 



Head and tliorax closely and strongly punctured, covered with 

 a silvery pile. Thorax longer than wide, the base not transverse, 

 being slightly roundly dilated in the middle, its sides bluntly 

 rounded. Sides of metanotum broadly rounded. Scutellum not 

 toothed laterally ; the post-scutellum not flat, somewhat rounded, 

 ol)liquely sloped. Clypeus about as wide as long, rounded al)Ove 

 l)ut with a slight projection in the middle on the toj) ; the apical 

 incision, i-oundel, distinctly wider than long. First abdominal 

 segment cup-shaped, narrow at the base, becoming gi-adually wider 

 towards the apex ; the second slightly longer than its width at the 

 apex, width at the a]iex, which is smooth and distinctly raised ; the 

 1st and 2nd segments are closely, uniformly and strongly 

 punctured : the 1st more strongly than the 2nd. 



The ])ost-scutellum is I'ounded behind. Antennal hook stout, 

 curved, reaching to shortly l)eyond the base of the joint. The 

 ])unctuation the mesonotum and scutellum runs into striae. 

 Tegulfe rufous, large. 



Is allied, by the not transverse base of thorax, to 0. rnelano- 

 dontus ; that species should be readily separated by the raised 

 sides of the scutellum, by the black teeth on the post-scutellum ; 

 and by the yellow bands on the apex of the 1st abdominal segment 

 being dilated lateially. In Saussure's Work it would come in 

 near O. hott/mtofus (olirn postimts). The head and thorax are more 

 densely covered with white pubescence than usual.

 ginous tint ; the 2iid abdominal segment above light oiange 

 coloured ; with a dark line, darker and dilated at the base and 

 apex, down the centi-e : wings In-ight fulvous, the apex smoky 

 violaceous from the end of the stigma. Female.
