  culate 
  apically; 
  hind 
  coxa 
  (pi. 
  51, 
  fig. 
  31) 
  extending 
  nearly 
  its 
  entire 
  

   dorsal 
  length 
  beyond 
  apex 
  of 
  propodeum. 
  

  

  Abdomen 
  (pi. 
  56, 
  fig. 
  88): 
  Not 
  or 
  barely 
  twice 
  as 
  long 
  as 
  combined 
  

   head 
  and 
  thorax, 
  veiy 
  strongly 
  compressed 
  and, 
  in 
  side 
  view, 
  very 
  

   deep; 
  firet 
  segment 
  rather 
  stout, 
  slightly 
  decurved, 
  postpetiole 
  not 
  

   bulbous, 
  spiracles 
  shortly 
  behind 
  apical 
  third; 
  tergite 
  2 
  shorter 
  than 
  3, 
  

   spiracles 
  at 
  about 
  middle, 
  gastrocoeli 
  near 
  base; 
  sternite 
  2 
  reaching 
  

   apex 
  of 
  tergite 
  1, 
  sternite 
  3 
  to 
  apex 
  of 
  tergite 
  2; 
  male 
  hypopygium 
  

   broad, 
  apex 
  deeply 
  emarginate 
  on 
  each 
  side 
  of 
  middle 
  and 
  with 
  a 
  

   median 
  acute 
  tooth, 
  paramere 
  (pi. 
  55, 
  fig. 
  85) 
  rounded 
  at 
  apex. 
  

  

  This 
  genus 
  apparently 
  includes 
  comparatively 
  few 
  species, 
  of 
  which 
  

   only 
  two 
  besides 
  the 
  genotype 
  are 
  described. 
  It 
  is 
  largely 
  tropical 
  

   in 
  its 
  range 
  but 
  extends 
  into 
  the 
  southwestern 
  part 
  of 
  the 
  United 
  States.

  I 
  have 
  identified 
  as 
  this 
  species 
  a 
  female 
  from 
  Sao

  in 
  

   the 
  collection 
  of 
  Hcnrj' 
  K.

  Marjoric

  which 
  agrees 
  

   almost 
  perfectly, 
  except 
  in 
  sexual 
  characters, 
  with 
  the 
  original

  is
