  posteriorly, 
  mesoscutum, 
  axillae, 
  scutellum. 
  and 
  paster 
  are 
  dark 
  

   piceous 
  with 
  violaceous 
  or 
  metallic 
  tints 
  on 
  the 
  head 
  and 
  mesoscu- 
  

   tum. 
  The 
  remainder 
  of 
  head 
  and 
  thorax, 
  propodeum 
  for 
  the 
  most 
  

   part, 
  and 
  the 
  abdominal 
  petiole 
  are 
  rufotestaceous, 
  the 
  coxae 
  all 
  

   whitish 
  and 
  the 
  remainder 
  of 
  legs 
  somewhat 
  paler 
  than 
  the 
  

   underside 
  of 
  thorax 
  but 
  darker 
  than 
  the 
  coxae. 
  The 
  abdominal 
  

   petiole 
  is 
  a 
  little 
  longer 
  than 
  the 
  posterior 
  coxa, 
  paler 
  at 
  base 
  and 
  

   at 
  apex 
  than 
  in 
  the 
  middle, 
  cylindrical, 
  and 
  granulosely 
  punctate. 
  

   The 
  antennae 
  are 
  about 
  twice 
  as 
  long 
  as 
  the 
  length 
  of 
  the 
  head, 
  

   not 
  at 
  all 
  clavate, 
  consisting 
  of 
  a 
  subcylindrical 
  scape, 
  a 
  pedicel 
  

   not 
  quite 
  twice 
  as 
  long 
  as 
  broad, 
  one 
  strongly 
  transverse 
  ring 
  

   joint, 
  seven 
  funicular 
  segments, 
  and 
  a 
  club 
  which 
  is 
  indistinctly 
  

   2-segmented, 
  no 
  thicker 
  than 
  the 
  funicle, 
  and 
  about 
  equal 
  in 
  length 
  

   to 
  the 
  two 
  preceding 
  funicular 
  segments. 
  Funicular 
  segments 
  

   1 
  to 
  4 
  are 
  subequal, 
  each 
  about 
  as 
  long 
  as 
  the 
  pedicel 
  and 
  narrowed 
  

   at 
  base; 
  segments 
  5 
  to 
  7 
  are 
  very 
  slightly 
  shorter 
  and 
  more 
  com- 
  

   pact. 
  The 
  sensilla 
  are 
  rather 
  coarse 
  and 
  extend 
  the 
  whole 
  length 
  

   of 
  the 
  segments. 
  

  

  Described 
  originally 
  from 
  Mount 
  Maquiling, 
  Luzon, 
  Philippine 
  

   Islands, 
  as 
  a 
  parasite 
  of 
  Dinoderns 
  minutua 
  (Fabricius), 
  this 
  

   species 
  has 
  since 
  been 
  received 
  from 
  Buitenzorg. 
  Java, 
  where 
  it 
  

   is 
  said 
  to 
  have 
  been 
  reared 
  from 
  Calundra 
  oryzae 
  (Linnaeus) 
  by 
  

   R. 
  Awibowo. 
  Other 
  specimens 
  in 
  the 
  collection, 
  without 
  host 
  

   records, 
  are 
  from 
  Laguna 
  and 
  Los 
  Baiios, 
  Philippine 
  Islands,

  This 
  species 
  was 
  de.scribed 
  from 
  one 
  male 
  specimen 
  collected 
  

   in 
  the 
  Seychelles 
  Islands. 
  

  

  It 
  apparently 
  differs 
  from 
  dinoderi 
  Gahan 
  mainly 
  in 
  the 
  more 
  

   distinctly 
  hairy 
  antennal 
  flagellum.

  Cerocephala 
  aqitila 
  very 
  closely 
  resembles 
  dinoderi 
  but 
  may 
  be 
  

   distinguished 
  from 
  that 
  species, 
  as 
  well 
  as 
  all 
  others, 
  by 
  the 
  com- 
  

   pletely 
  striated 
  dorsum 
  of 
  the 
  prothorax.
