CHALCID FLISS OF GENUS PERILAMPUS — SMULYAN 377 



punctures and also somewhat longitudinally wrinkled; ocellocular 

 area with coarse punctures and some transverse wrinkles; emargina- 

 tion of frontovertex almost touching a hne tangent to posterior margins 

 of lateral ocelH and anterior margin of anterior ocellus only slightly 

 in front of anterior margins of lateral ocelli; postocellar line three to 

 four times the length of median line of vertex and practically twice 

 the length of ocellocular line; eyes with a conspicuous smooth area 

 along posterior orbit; cheeks and face on each side of clypeus with 

 coarse or fairly coarse rugae (former very rarely in part smooth), 

 the rugae well separated, neither dense nor numerous, lowermost 

 ones on face commingling or continuous with those on cheeks, cheeks 

 usually with more or less conspicuous punctures interspersed with the 

 rugae ; malar furrow absent, rarely very faintly indicated ; hyperclypeal 

 area strongly or rather strongly depressed in relation to face on each 

 side; scrobal cavity deep, sides steep, beginning to flare at or about 

 level of base of scape; clypeus wider than long, longer than hyper- 

 clypeal area, more or less conspicuously punctate, anterior margin 

 very faintly arcuately emarginate medially, basal margin usually 

 markedly concavely arcuate, face on each side immediately above 

 rugae more or less conspicuously punctate; cheeks convexly rounded; 

 head in front viev/ distinctly transverse, eyes reacliing more or less 

 below level of base of clypeus. 



Thorax: Scutellum produced at apex and as a rule distinctly longer 

 than mesoscutum and pro thorax together; areas along inner margins 

 of parapsides more or less roughened with punctures and often also 

 with aciculations; suture separating prepectus from pronotum very 

 distinct; axilla with an elongate fingerlike extension running poster- 

 iorly along lateral margin of scutellum, the base of extension falling 

 distinctly below middle of axilla, and the face of axilla depressed or 

 excavated immediately above base of extension, the portion imme- 

 diately anterior to extension not sloping toward latter, surface of axilla 

 as a rule in large part smooth and shining, with more or less con- 

 spicuous rugae immediately above base of extension; basal shallow 

 furrows on underside of apex of scutellum turning caadad near middle 

 of scutellum and running more or less parallel to each other to periph- 

 eral furrow; propodeum laterally depressed and rugose; walls between 

 punctures on middle of scutellum more or less thickened, a small spot 

 near center usually impunctate; wing veins long, postmarginal vein 

 occupying about one-fourth to one-third the distance between the end 

 of tl^e marginal vein and the apex of the wing in a straight line and 

 usually about three-fourths the length of the marginal vein; wing 

 hairs rather dense. 



Abdomen: Posterior face wider than long, as a rule very markedly 

 wider; first tergite very strongly transverse, smooth or practically 

 smooth and with no elevated anterior margin; hair punctures on 

 second segment conspicuous.
