4. Tribe Poecilocryptini 



Front wing 4 to 8.5 mm. long; clypeus covering most of labrum, 

 its apical margin thin, convex in outline; flagellum rather stiff, weakly 

 clavate; thorax moderately short, subcylindric ; abdomen attached 

 moderately low on propodeum, higher than in most ichneumonids but 

 not so high as in the Labenini; female hind coxa without an internal 

 groove for holding ovipositor; tarsal claws of male simple; front and 

 middle tarsal claws of female with a large internal tooth as in the 

 Pimplini; hind tarsal claws of female simple; areolet present, apex of 

 costellan vein with a single hamulus in the few specimens studied; 

 spiracle of first abdominal segment near its middle. 



This tribe includes the single genus Poecilocryptus of Australia 

 and Tasmania, which has been reared from galls on Acacia and 

 Eucalyptus. The three known species have been reviewed by Parrott 

 (1954, Pacific Sci., vol. 8, pp. 239-242).
