the frons moderately broad, the labrum conspicuous, the eyes very 

 long, reaching nearly to the mouth, narrowing ventrad, long-reniform, 

 the head lenticular but the short scrobes are distinct, not joined above. 

 Mandibles with three distinct teeth, the second a little the longest. 

 Antennae long and slender, the scape reaching the ocelli, the funicle 

 joints all nearly thrice longer than wide, the club blunt at apex, 

 somewhat wider than the funicle but only about a third of its length. 

 Hind tibial spurs double, one of them long and slender, the other of 

 normal length. Marginal vein two and a half times longer than wide, 

 slightly longer than the postmarginal or stigmal. Body with the 

 general build of Cerchysins. Axilljc joined at meson. Scutum large, 

 subquadrate. 



I. Epicerchysius xanthipes new species. 



Female. — Length, 1.75 mm. 



Metallic green, the scutellum rosaceous coppery, the legs and antennae 

 yellow except the middle tibiae which are fuscous above, the caudal femur 

 above at tip and the caudal tibiae which are metallic purple from end to end. 

 Fore wing with a distinct cross-stripe of fuscous from the marginal and post- 

 marginal veins, and which is of moderate width, divided by a narrow hyaline 

 streak just caudad of the middle and bevelled off cephalo-distad to the apex 

 of the postmarginal vein. Pedicel over twice longer than wide at apex, 

 nearly as long as funicle one. Extreme tip of exserted portion of the ovi- 

 positor white. Thorax very finely scaly, the scutum and scutellum with 

 numerous minute setigerous punctures, the clothing white and short. Dorso- 

 lateral aspect of propodeum with white pubescence, glabrous from thence to 

 meson. 



Described from one female on a tag in the U. S. N. M. labelled 

 " from cotton boll. 708. E. S. Tucker, March 1909, Arlington, Tex." 



Type.— Catalogue No. 19400, U. S. N. M., the above specimen 

 plus a slide bearing the head, fore wing and a hind tibia. 



ANAGYRELLA new genus. 



Female. — In my table to the earth's encyrtine genera runs to Leuro- 

 ceriis Crawford but the postmarginal and stigmal veins are very 

 elongate and subequal, the marginal punctiform. The scape is greatly, 

 foliaceously dilated, the flagellum clavate, the solid club short and 

 thick, obliquely truncate from near the apex, nearly as long as the 

 fimicle whose joints are much wider than long, lengthening and wid- 

 ening distad, not compressed. Hind tibial spurs double, one spur
