of the hind coxae ; hind tarsi distinctly thickened ; apical abscissa of 

 metacarpus nearly as long as radial cell; intercubitus obsolete; ovi- 

 positor sheath barely half as long as third tergite. 



Entirely black except very narrow brownish inner and superior 

 orbits, reddish front legs, bases of apical trochanter joints of middle 

 and hind legs, and hind calcaria, and whitish front and middle cal- 

 caria; anterior margin of front wing, apical abscissa of discoideus, 

 and metacarpella piceous, venation otherwise colorless.

 Parophionellus texanus Brues and Richardson, Bull. Amer. Mus. Nat. 

 Hist., vol. 33, 1913, p. 495. (By generic synonymy.) 



Distinct in many ways from any of the other three species known 

 to me. The face is much broader with eyes less strongly convergent ; 

 clypeus broad with the sides of the margin running obliquely down 

 to the truncate apex; antennae barely as long as head and thorax, 

 and stout; face strongly punctured; vertex densely punctured, the 

 punctuation extending far down on the occiput and obscuring the 

 occipital carina medially; pronotal furrow opaque and not defined 

 by a carina behind; glabrous spot of mesosternum not so well de- 

 fined and more in the form of a shallow furrow ; propodeal " neck " 

 more than half as long as hind coxae; sides of propodeum swollen; 

 apical abscissa of metacarpus less than half as long as radial cell; 

 intercubitella much more than twice as long as abscissula ; hind basi- 

 tarsus not only enlarged but distinctly swollen, being thicker in 

 middle than at base or apex. 



Entire face and orbits except at top of eye, clypeus, mandibles, 

 and scape yellow; abdomen in middle and legs largely red. 



There are 15 females and 5 males in the National Museum, from 

 Texas, New Mexico, and Kansas. 



The male has the hind tarsi even more swollen than the female; 

 the outer genital valves are very slender, white at base, and black at 

 apex. 



Tribe CAMPOPIEGIin. 



Genus OLESICAMPE Foerster. 



To this genus should be referred Ho7nalo7nma pte7'onideae Rohwer 

 and Prionopoda heginii Ashmead. 



CALLIDORA PALLIDA, new species. 



Runs in Foerster's key to Gallidora^ though not agreeing with that 

 genus in the form of the areolet. With Thomson's description of the
