NO. 1942. NEW SPECIES OF ICHNEUMON-FLIES— VIERECK. 585 



If this species is h.eld to have a median longitudinal keel on the 

 pronotum, there being a suggestion of such a keel, then it might be 

 said to be related to Hemiteles alpivagus Strobl in Schmiedeknecht's 

 arrangement.

 fifth joint more or less yellow like the eleventh and twelfth, the joints 

 between these completely yellow; fore legs concolorous with the 

 body, except coxae, trochanters, femora above and on basal half
