 ish; scape uniformly dark stramineous beneath, pedicel paler beneath

 their tarsi dark brown; basal area rather petiolate triangular; abdo- 

 men reddish with the first segment, basal two-thirds of second seg- 

 ment, excepting thyridia, third basally, fourth to sixth dorsally, black 

 or blackish; abdomen truncate at apex, its ovipositor hardly as long

HYPOTHEREUTES ELYI, new species. 



Type-locality. — East River, Connecticut. 



Type.— Cat. No. 15033, U.S.N.M. 



Female. — Length 5 mm.; related to H. caradrinse Viereck, from 

 which it may be known by the malar line being shorter than the 

 mandibles are wide at base, by the scape being yellow beneath, by 

 the fore and mid coxae and all trochanters being almost entirely pale 

 yellowish, by the mostly brownish stramineous fore and mid tibiae 

 and femora, by the reddish hind coxae and femora, by the nervellus 

 being angulated, by the areola being a little longer than wide, and 

 by the dorsal abdominal segments being black except for the brown- 

 ish thyridia, rather stramineous apical margin to the second seg- 

 ment and the rather reddish spot on each side of the third segment. 

 PHca- yellowish.

Type-locality. — Springer, New Mexico.

Female. — Length 5 mm.; related to H. caradrinse Viereck, from 

 which it can be distinguished by the rather parallel-sided attenuate 

 areola, which is at least twice as long as wide, by the more slender, 

 entirely black, first abdominal segment, the postpetiole of which is 

 rather oblong than quadrate, by the second segment being mostly
