Habitat. — Grenada. 



Host. — Unknown. 



This species, the tj^pe of which is in the British Museum, is known 

 to the writer only through the original description. Apparently it 

 can be separated from epinotiae only by the broader trapezoidal 

 first abdominal tergite.

The National Collection contains several cotypes of this species;

15. APANTELES THURBERIAE, new species. 



Closely resembles megatkipni, from which it differs in the poste- 

 rior femora being deep black in both sexes, in the black membranous 

 margins along the first abdominal tergite, and in the strongly de- 

 curved ovipositor. 



Female. — Length, 3.8 mm. Face much broader than long, uni- 

 formly shallowly punctate, and with a rather distinct median ridge 

 just below insertion of the antennae; mesoscutum evenly and very 

 closely punctate; disk of scutelium large, flat, and distinctl}^ longer 

 than broad at base, almost impunctate, polished ; mesopleura evenly 

 punctate anteriorly, polished posteriorly; propodeum rugose, with 

 a large, sharplj'^-defined areola crossed within by a number of strong 

 transverse rugae, costulae usually present, apical angles prominent; 

 posterior coxae smooth, with only a few punctures at base; poste- 

 rior femora stout; inner spur of posterior tibiae distinctly longer 

 than the outer and about half the length of the metatarsus; abdo- 

 men about as long as the thorax, broad and not compressed toward 

 apex; first tergite broader at apex than at base, and distinctly less 

 than one and one-half times as long as broad at apex, rugoso-punc- 

 tate, with a large median longitudinal fovea on the apical two-
