without fuscous; face below antennae almost entirely yellow, the yellow prolonged 

 along the inner eye margin half-way upon the front, three longitudinal brown 

 bands dividing the yellow above the clypeus into four parts nearly of equal width, 

 a very dark brown, nearly black band between the clypeus and face; the clypeus 

 with a large semicircular dark brown mark on the anterior half, this brown being 

 prolonged back to meet the dark brown band between the face and clypeus, thus 

 reducing the yellow of the clypeus to two elongated yellow spots; mandibles 

 brown at apex. 



Type: University of Kansas. Type locality: Manitou Park, Colo. ; August, 

 1891, F. H. Snow. 

 Ichneumon (Barichneumon) limbifrons Cresson. 



Manitou Park, Colo. ; August, 1891, F. H. Snow. 

 Ichneumon (Cratichneumon ?) skinneri Viereck. 



xMale. Bailey, Colo.; August, 1890, F. H. Snow. 

 Nototrachys reticulatus Cresson. 



Two males. The specimens are smaller than the type and one of the speci- 

 mens has paler legs. They vary somewhat in sculpture, but apparently repre- 

 sent at most only variations of the type, perhaps a separate race. 



Oak Creek Canyon, Ariz., 6000 feet; August, 1902, F. H. Snow. 



Nototrachys texanus Cresson. 



Female. Differs from the type in having the shining space of the mesopleura 

 rather coarsely punctured. Perhaps a distinct race of the Texan form.

Bassus Ifetatarius Fab. 



Oak Creek Canyon, Ariz.; August, 1902, F. H. Snow. 

 Glypta egregiafovea, n. sp. 



Remarkable for the transverse apical fovea on the impressed abdominal 

 segments. 



Female. — Length, 10 mm. Head shining or polished ; face closely punc- 

 tured, punctures on the front distintly separated; cheeks somewhat excavated, 

 polished and almost impunctate; malar space nearly as high as half the length 

 of the first joint of the flagellum; antennae forty-eight jointed, scape and pedi- 

 cellum together a little longer than the second joint of the flagellum. Thorax 

 shining and polished; dorsulum shining, rather closely punctured, the punctures 

 separated and distinct; parapsidal grooves faintly indicated on the anterior half 

 of the dorsulum; propleura rather sparsely punctured; mesopleura highly pol- 

 ished on the posterior half of the sclerite and impunctate, a deep pit near the 

 posterior margin of the sclerite in the middle; metathorax not at all areolated, 

 not even longitudinal carina; present or indicated, the transverse carina distinct 

 and rather low down ; wings with the neuration nearly as in typical Glypta ; /. e., 

 as in the preceding species, the first abcissa of the cubitus beyond the transverse 

 cubitus distinctly shorter than the transverse cubitus, discocubital nervure with 

 a slight stump of a vein before the middle. Abdomen rather sparsely, closely 

 punctured; first segment with two short converging carinas anteriorly, the carinas 

 not extending to the middle, the surface between highly polished, smooth im- 

 punctate; oblique impressions on the second and third abdominal segments 

 forming an almost equilateral triangle with the transverse impression across the 

 segment near the apex ; the pattern formed by the impressions on the fourth
