oped sternauli, which are represented merely by a sHght depression 

 of the tegument and a difference in sculpture, in the occipital carina 

 not being humped just before reaching the oral carina, and m the 

 postpetiole, which is nearly twice as long doAvn the middle as wide at 

 base. 



Named in honor of my colleague, Mr. J. R. Malloch.

Collected June 9, 1912, by lli. J. R. Malloch. 



NEONORTONIA, new subgenus. 



Type. — Casinana (Neonortonia) genuina (Norton). 



Related to Casinaria Holmgren as represented by C. claviventris 

 Holmgren, with which it agrees in the produced portion of the pro- 

 podeum extending practically to the middle of the hind coxse and in 

 the virtually exareolate propodeum, but can be distinguished by the 

 different TropJiocampa-like habitus and in the neither angulate nor 

 branched nervellus. 



NEOPRISTOMERUS, new genus. 



Type of the genus. — Pristomerus appalacManus Viereck. 



Related to Pristomerus Holmgren, from which it can be distin- 

 guished especially by the terminal abscissa of the cubitus and sub- 

 discoidal vein being mostly represented by almost colorless streaks
