  the

   New 
  name 
  for 
  Spilophion 
  macufipennis 
  Cameron, 
  not 
  {Enicospilus) 
  Stauro- 
  

   podoctonus 
  macuUpennis 
  (Cameron), 
  1886. 
  

  

  Because 
  of 
  Morley's 
  error 
  in 
  transferring 
  both 
  this 
  species 
  and 
  

   Enicospilus 
  macuUpennis 
  Cameron 
  to 
  Stauropodocioniis 
  , 
  thereby 
  

   making 
  them 
  secondary 
  homonyms, 
  it 
  was 
  necessary 
  for 
  him 
  to 
  

   rename 
  the 
  later 
  species, 
  but 
  since 
  they 
  are 
  not 
  congeneric 
  and 
  neither 
  

   is 
  a 
  Stauropodoctonus 
  I 
  here 
  restore 
  Cameron's 
  name 
  for 
  the 
  present 
  

   species. 
  

  

  S. 
  macuUpennis 
  is 
  widely 
  distributed 
  in 
  the 
  Indo-Malayan 
  Region.

  This 
  genus 
  presents 
  a 
  curious 
  combination 
  of 
  the 
  characters 
  of 
  

   Ophion 
  and 
  Enicospilus, 
  the 
  venation 
  largely 
  that 
  of 
  Ophion 
  and 
  the 
  

   head 
  and 
  body 
  characters 
  those 
  of 
  Enicospilus. 
  In 
  the 
  last 
  reference 
  

   cited 
  above 
  I 
  have 
  discussed 
  the 
  synonymy 
  of 
  the 
  genus 
  and 
  that 
  

   of 
  the 
  genotype. 
  

  

  Head: 
  With 
  narrow, 
  strongly 
  receding 
  temples; 
  occipital 
  carina 
  fine 
  

   but 
  complete; 
  eyes 
  deeply 
  emarginate; 
  ocelli 
  large, 
  nearly 
  (9) 
  or 
  quite 
  

   (cT) 
  touching 
  eyes; 
  frons 
  shghtly 
  narrower 
  than 
  face; 
  clypeus 
  hardly 
  

   separated, 
  apex 
  broadly 
  rounded, 
  labrum 
  rather 
  broadly 
  exposed; 
  

   mandible 
  abruptly 
  narrowed 
  from 
  near 
  base, 
  strongly 
  twisted, 
  upper 
  

   tooth 
  longer 
  than 
  lower 
  tooth; 
  trophi 
  normal; 
  antennae 
  very 
  slender, 
  

   nearly 
  or 
  quite 
  as 
  long 
  as 
  body. 
  

  

  Thorax: 
  Slender; 
  pronotum 
  without 
  definite 
  scrobes, 
  pronotal 
  sinus 
  

   narrow, 
  spiracular 
  sclerite 
  concealed; 
  notaulices 
  not 
  at 
  all 
  indicated; 
  

   scutellum 
  narrow, 
  margined 
  to 
  beyond 
  middle; 
  mesopleuron 
  nearly 
  

   flat 
  with 
  fovea 
  obsolete 
  and 
  without 
  defined 
  speculum; 
  prepectus 
  

   not 
  reaching 
  anterior 
  margin 
  of 
  mesopleuron 
  but 
  ending 
  abruptly 
  

   just 
  above 
  level 
  of 
  lower 
  angle 
  of 
  pronotum; 
  sternaulices 
  not 
  at 
  all 
  

   indicated; 
  mesosternum 
  evenly 
  convex; 
  postpectus 
  weak 
  or 
  narrowly 
  

  

  1' 
  Townes 
  (Mem. 
  Amer. 
  Ent. 
  Soc, 
  No. 
  11, 
  1944-45) 
  has 
  synonymized 
  this 
  genus 
  with 
  Enicospilus, 
  Be- 
  

   cause 
  of 
  the 
  lack 
  of 
  the 
  fenestra 
  and 
  the 
  generally 
  Ophion-like 
  venation, 
  I 
  retain 
  it 
  as 
  a 
  distinct 
  genus.
