5. SUBTRIBE SPHECOPHAGINA 



Arthula. Oriental and Australian. {= Orientocryptus) . 



Latibulus. Oriental and Southern Palearctic. {—Crypturus Graven- 



horst, = Endurus, = Kuniocryptus) . 

 Sphecophaga. Holarctic. {=Chyrononwn, =Cacotropa). 



New Nomenclature for Genotypes 



The new generic synonymy in the above Ust impHes new generic 

 combinations for the genotypes concerned. These are Hsted below, 

 and the occasion is taken to list also some new specific synonymy for 

 them. 



Three of the generic names do not yet have genotypes. We desig- 

 nate two of them as follows: 



Coccygodes nobilis Saussure for Coccygodes Seyrig 

 Trapezonalis fuscipennis Sz6pligeti for Trapezonalis 



Neomesostenus still lacks a genotype. We intend to select one after 

 the several species that could be designated have been studied again. 

 Other species than the genotypes now stand under some of the syn- 

 onymized generic names. These may or may not be congeneric 

 with the genotypes. Their individual cases need separate atten- 

 tion, but except for the Nearctic species they are outside the scope 

 of this work. The generic position of some of them will be treated 

 in catalogs which are in preparation.
