29. Clipysotiinus Loew. 



Very small species of bright green colour, with abdomen yelloMr 

 in the female. Head about of the breadth of thorax, as broad as 

 high or a little broader, semiglobular, but a little narroved down- 

 wards; it is slightly arched behind. Vertex almost not excavated. 

 Frons broad, decreasing in breadth towards the antennæ; there are 

 ocellar, outer vertical, and somewhat distantly placed postvertical 

 bristles; besides a pair of small hairs on the ocellar tubercle. Eyes 

 large, somewhat oval, a little narrowed downwards; they are very 

 short-hairy, almost microscopically. The facets are of the same or 

 about the same size. The eyes are equally separated in both sexes. 

 The postocular bristles form a single row, and besides there are only 

 a few hairs on the lower part of occiput. Antennæ inserted near to 

 each other, a little above the middle; they are very short, of the 

 same shape in both sexes, the third joint shorter than broad; it is 

 hollowed behind and thus almost cup-shaped, in profile it is almost 

 reniform; arista dorsal, but somewhat subapical, much longer than 

 the antennæ; its first joint is short. The first antennal joint is bare, 

 the second has small bristles at the apex, the third joint and the 

 arista with short but distinct hairs. Epistoma not specially narrow; the 

 clypeus is indistinctly separated by a small notch at each side, it is 

 short and does not reach the lower margin of the eyes. Proboscis a 

 little protruding, it and the oral aperture are of the same or about 

 the same size in the two sexes. Thorax rectangular, somewhat high, 

 and a little arched above; behind, in front of the scutellum, there is
