NO. 2140. AMERICAN CHALCIDOID HYMENOPTERA—GIRAULT. 4o 



nipple of the club is not articulated. Propodeum with a median 

 carina and a curved lateral one. Abdomen rather slender, its seg- 

 ment 2 somewhat over a fourth the length of the surface. Parapsidal 

 furrows and axiUae as in the preceding species. 



PSEUDIGLYPHOMYIA (CIRROSPILUS) FLAVICINCTUS (Riley). 



This species is the same as Cirrospilus fiavimaculata Ashmead. 

 There are specimens in the United States National Museum from 

 Algonquin, Illinois (Nason), and from Washington, District of Co- 

 lumbia. The caudal femur is concolorous. 



Propodeum without lateral carinae. Postmarginal vein somewhat 

 shorter than the stigmal. Types compared. 



PSEUDIGLYPHOMYIA CINCTITHORAX. new species. 



Female. — Length, 1.50 mm. 



Differs from. Jlavicinctus Riley m that the yellow on the little less 

 than distal half of the distal scutum is complete^-that is, crosses the 

 entire dorsal thorax (the parapsides with only their lateral and 

 cephahc margins metallic dark blue or concolorous) ; the caudal femur 

 is golden yellow (thus but the caudal coxa is concolorous) and also 

 the head (except cheeks below the eyes, ocellar area and occiput, the 

 latter except around the mouth and dorso-laterad at each eye). 

 Thorax scaly, the propodeum and postscutellum smoother. Venation 

 yellow. Scape metallic except at apex, the pedicel so at base above 

 l)roadly. Funicle 1 subequal to the pedicel, somewhat longer than 

 wide, 2 quadrate. Club with a smaU terminal nipple. Postmarginal 

 vein slightly shorter than the stigmal. Mandibles 5-dentate. Com- 

 pared with type oijlavicinctus. 



Described from a single female captured at Algonquin, Illinois, 

 September 20, 1895 (Nason). 



Tijpe.— Cat. No. 19602, U.S.N.M., the female on a tag, the head, 

 a hind tibia and a forewing on a slide. 



PSEUDIGLYPHOMYIA PULCHRA. new species. 



Female. — Like americana but wholly lemon yellow, the legs wholly 

 so and the metallic blue green markings differ as follows: The upper 

 occiput more narrowly green, the pronotum all green, the area of 

 the cephalic half of the scutum is semicircular, the stripe across base 

 of abdomen is absent, while the broad abdominal stripe is farther 

 distad, distinctly closer to the tip than to the base and excised only 

 proximo-laterad, so that there is at meson an obtuse projection from 

 the proximal margin. Also the sides of the thorax caudad of the 

 tegulae and proximal half of caudal coxae are metallic blue. The 

 broad band of the abdomen crosses the venter. Mandibles 5-dentate. 



Described from one female labeled ' ' from Bucculatnx species, Feb- 

 ruary 9, 1908. Oirrospilus jiamcinctus Riley." United vStates.
