also, the margin of ahJomL-ii \ciitro-latcrad near base is not yellow; 
otherwise remarkably alike. In fhivoHiuuilti there is a rather large 
area on lateral propodeum just cephalad of the caudal coxa (the 
propodeum laterad of the minute spiracles) and which has an 
oblique, narrow purple stripe at its meso-caudal corner; this is ab- 
sent in tiiis species. Both species bear a moderately long median 
carina on the propodeum, the latter Jistiiut. In both species the 
\-ertex is purple nearly to each eye (between the lateral ocelli), and 
this is due to a broad purple stripe up the meson of the occiput which 
below the center (at the neck) tli\ides and goes o\'er to the eye 
where each arm di\ides again; but in fhivoliiiftilti the small Y at the 
eye is broadly separated from the parent marking; one arm of this 
Y, the broader, meets the eye above the ventral apex on the occipital 
aspect, the other goes to the ventral apex of the eye, across the 
cheek. Description of ftavoliiieata otherwise correct. On the vertex 
cephalad the purple apparently gives off a branch latero-cephalad, 
one ( a \ery short one) going to the dorsal apex of the eye, the other 
down the face along the eye for some little distance; a \'ery narrow 
median stripe t)n face between the antenn;i? and the mouth (the nar- 
row median black stripe of flcivolinentii) . Mandibles six-dentate. 
Scape lemon yellow at proximal half except above; club three yel- 
lowish.
