the tarsi, and the apical compressed abdominal segment, fer- 

 ruginous. Scape of antennae in front and the clypeus marked 

 with yellow, the mandibles yellow with red teeth. Wings with a 

 transverse smoky band through the basal cells and a large ante- 

 Head in front dull and very densely punctured. Pronotum 

 pubescent, shining, somewhat rugosely punctured; mesonotum 

 quite dull, except the smooth anterior constriction, very dense- 

 ly sculptured, being finely granulate or shagreened; scutellum 

 somewhat shining and punctured; propodeuin with fine and 

 close rugose reticulation. Abdomen smooth and shining. 

 Length 4 mm. 



Agrees well generically with Chlorodryiinis paUidiis in the in- 

 completely margined head, the simple pronotum, the incomplete 

 parapsidal furrows, etc., and only its superficial appearance is 

 that of a Paradryimis.

 by Koe'bele on low bushes. 



Neochclogymis igiiotiis, sp. nov. _ 



Black, scape of antennae and front legs acIIow or ferruginous, 

 second and third joints of antennae obscurely reddish, the rest 

 black. Middle and hind femora and tibiae more or less brown 

 or dark-coloured, the tarsi except the apical joint pale yellow; 

 the mandibles pale. 



Head large, densely rugose or rugosely ]nmctate, but the 

 sculpture is not coarse, and is still finer on the front, which is 

 clothed with silvery hairs. Pronotum rugose; mesonotum shin- 

 ing and sparsely punctate; fhe scutellum and post-scutellum 

 smooth and shining; propodeum finely irregulaily rugose, the 

 posterior median area well defined, somewhat smoother, dull 

 and rugulose. Wings with the stigma and radius fuscous, the 

 rest of the neuration pale. Abdomen black, shining and impunc- 

 tate. Length 3 mm. 



This species in the sculpture of the head (which is much finer 

 than in most of the allied species) agrees with A^ nigricoruis, 

 the 'black antennae of the latter serving at once to distinguish it.
