  Mesonotum 
  shining; 
  

   the 
  scutellum 
  pahid 
  yellow 
  > 
  the 
  base 
  of 
  the 
  median 
  

   segment 
  depressed 
  in 
  the 
  middle; 
  a 
  stout 
  transverse 
  keel 
  

   behind 
  it 
  ; 
  behind 
  this 
  keel 
  the 
  segment 
  is 
  coarsely 
  

   shagreened 
  and 
  with 
  an 
  indistinct 
  furrow 
  down 
  the 
  

   centre 
  ; 
  the 
  pleurae 
  coarsely 
  shagreened. 
  Legs 
  uniformly 
  

   fulvous, 
  almost 
  bare 
  ; 
  wings 
  clear 
  hyaline 
  ; 
  the 
  stigma 
  

   fulvous 
  ; 
  the 
  clear 
  bare 
  space 
  contains 
  one 
  large 
  horny 
  

   mark, 
  with 
  a 
  distinct 
  dark 
  border 
  ; 
  above 
  it 
  is 
  a 
  curved 
  

   spot, 
  and 
  behind 
  two 
  smaller 
  spots. 
  Abdomen 
  darker 
  

   towards 
  the 
  apex. 
  The 
  cubital 
  nervure 
  is 
  much 
  thickened 
  

   at 
  the 
  base. 
  

  

  Enicospilits, 
  or 
  Hcnicospiliis 
  as 
  the 
  purists 
  would 
  have 
  

   it, 
  differs 
  from 
  Ophion 
  proper 
  in 
  the 
  fore 
  wings 
  having 
  a 
  

   clear 
  space, 
  which 
  usually 
  contains 
  one 
  or 
  more 
  horny 
  

   points 
  ; 
  and, 
  the 
  stump 
  of 
  the 
  cubital 
  nervure, 
  found 
  well 
  

   developed 
  in 
  Ophion, 
  is 
  absent. 
  In 
  some 
  cases 
  the 
  smooth 
  

   space 
  is 
  present 
  without 
  having 
  horny 
  points 
  in 
  it, 
  or 
  they 
  

   are 
  very 
  faint. 
  In 
  either 
  case 
  I 
  believe 
  it 
  will 
  be 
  found 
  

   that 
  the 
  base 
  of 
  the 
  cubital 
  nervure 
  is 
  thickened, 
  which 
  

   is 
  not 
  the 
  case 
  with 
  Ophion,

  In 
  view 
  of 
  the 
  

   great 
  similarity 
  of 
  the 
  species 
  of 
  Ophion, 
  it 
  seems 
  to 
  me 
  

   desirable 
  to 
  adopt 
  Enicospihis 
  as 
  a 
  distinct 
  genus. 
  Species 
  

   belonging 
  to 
  it 
  are 
  found 
  in 
  all 
  parts 
  of 
  the 
  world.
