NO. 2161. NEW JAVANESE HYMENOPTERA—GIRAULT. 481 



Agrees with the description of the genotype except that of the 

 antennae the entire club is black except apex of joint 3, the hyalme 

 cross stripe of the fore wing is broadly divided longitudinally at mid- 

 dle, the wing thus with a large, nearly naked, hyaline obhque eye-spot, 

 one on each margin (opposite each other), the cephalic one just at 

 apex of the venation (stigmal vein pale). The base of the abdomen 

 more or less blackish; the pedicel is longer in relation to funicle 1, 

 the funicle yellow. The postmarginal vein is present, yet less than 

 half the length of the stigmal, which is a little less than half the length 

 of the black marginal. Center of face of pronotmn black. Scutum 

 with scattered white setae; the scutellum with longer black ones 

 discally; otherwise the same. 



From two females received from P. van der Goot and reared from 

 Lecanium viride at Saiitiga, Java, January, 1915. 



Type.— Csit. No. 19893, U.S.N.M. The above specimens on a 

 tag; the head, a hind tibia, and the fore wing on a slide. 



CRISTATITHORAX LATISCAPUS, new species. 



Female. — Length, 1.40 mm. 



Dark metallic purple, the fore wing with the usual infuscation, the 

 the following parts silvery white: Pedicel, funicle, dorsal edge of 

 scape at distal half, and legs (except apex rather broadly of cephalic 

 femur, base rather broadly of cephalic tibiae, both dusky ; the same 

 of middle femur, narrower ventrad, and tibia, but the color black and 

 broader on the tibia, over proximal tliird; all of caudal femur except 

 broadly at base and over proximal half of caudal tibia, proximal 

 third or more dorsad). Tuft on scutellum rather long. Scutum 

 with a short, dense, silvery pubescence, scattered on the scutellum. 

 Body densely scaly. Frons narrow, at the occipital margin about 

 three and a half times the diameter of an ocellus, narrowest far 

 cephalad; the cephalic ocellus far in advance of the others. Axillae 

 large, narrowly joined. Scape distinctly but not very greatly di- 

 lated fohaceously. Funicles 2-4 shortest, subequal, wider than long; 

 1 subquadrate ; 6 largest, a little wider than long, somewhat smaller 

 than the pedicel. Club enlarged, not quite so long as the funicle, 

 obliquely truncate from near base of joint 3. Postmarginal vein 

 very short, truncate, the stigmal somewhat less than a third the length 

 of the marginal. Distance between apex of wing and of infuscation 

 somewhat over half the marginal vein's length. Marginal fringes not 

 long. 



Described from many females reared from Lecanium viride, Jan- 

 uary, 1915, Salatiga, Java. 



Types.— C&t. No. 19895, U.S.N.M. Eight females on three tags and 

 another on a shde (the former paratypes, the latter type).
