NO. 2334. NORTH AMERICAN ICHNEUMON-FLIES— CUSHM AN. 259 



Brischke/ not Schmiedeknecht^ as cited by Viereck, was the first 

 to assign a species to Ohaeretymma Foerster. Brischke's inclusions 

 were : Cryptus acreus Taschenberg, Cryptus ater Brischke, and Cryptus 

 pellucidatoi' Gravenhorst, all subsequently placed by Schmicde- 

 knecht in Leptocryptus, ater being synonymized with, claviger Gra^^en- 

 horst. Cryptus aereus and pellucidator are unknown to the writer, 

 but claviger can certainly not be the type of CTifieTetymma, for it is 

 Phygadenontoid by Foerster's definition, not Cryptoid, and differs 

 in other ways from the description of Chaeretymma Foerster. Cliae- 

 retymma Brischke, with Cryptus ater Brischke as type, is synonymous 

 with Panargyrops Foerster. 



The following corrections to Viereck's catalogue of genotypes are 

 therefore necessary: 



(APSILOPS AsHMEAD [1896])=TRICHOCRYPTTJS Thomson. 



Trans. Amer. Ent. Soc, vol. 23, 1896, p. 207. One species. 



Type: Cryptus hirlifTons Ashm.e&d. (Monobasic.) 



Genotype congeneric with that of Trichocryptus Thomson. 

 (APSILOPS AsHMEAD [1900])=ALLOCOTA Foerster. 



Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond., 1900, p. 268. One species. 



Type: Diagly pta radiata Ashmead. (Monobasic.) 

 (APSILOPS AsHMEAD [1905])=ALLOCOTA Foerster. 



Froc. U. S. Nat. Mus., vol. 29, 1905, p. 114. One species. 



Type: Apsilops nigriceps Ashmead. (Monobasic.) 

 APSILOPS Foerster. 



Verh. naturf. Ver. preuss. Rheinland, vol. 25, 1868, p. 182. No species. 



Neither of the three species referred to Apsilops by Ashmead agrees with the 

 description. 



Atypic. 

 (CHAERETYMMA Brischke, not Foerster)=PANARGYB,OPS Foerster. 



Schrift. naturf. Ges. Danzig, new ser., vol. 5, 1880, p. 338. Three species. 



Type: {Cryptus ater Brischke) = Panargyrops claviger (Gravenhorst). (By present 

 designation.) 



Isogenotypic with Panargyrops Foerster. 

 CHAERETYMMA Foerster (Schmiedeknecht). 



Verh. nat. Ver. preuss. Rheinl., vol. 25, 1868, p. 187. No species. 



Ent. Nach., vol. 16, 1890, p. 150. Four species. 



Type: Cryptus fur cator Gravenhorst, Thomson. (By designation of Viereck.) 



None of the three species included in 1880 by Brischke agrees with the descrip- 

 tion of Chaeretymma Foerster and neither can be the type. 

 DAPANXJS Foerster. 



Verh. naturf. Ver. preuss. Rhtinland, vol. 25, 1868, p. 183. No species. 



Ichneumon cinctorius Fabricius, designated by Ashmead as type, does not agree 

 with description. 



Atypic. 

 (DIAGLYPTA Ashmead)=ALLOCOTA Foerster. 



Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1895, p. 780. One species. 



Type: Diaglypta radiata Ashmead. (Monobasic.)
