ON walker's japanesr ichneumonid^t;. 133 



nearly half abdominal length, with valvulse apically explanate ; 

 length, 8 mm. One specimen. 



7. C. MACULiPES (p. 304, 2 ; cf. Smith, Trans. Ent. Soc. 

 1874, p. 393, 2 ).— " The male is described by Mr. Smith," says 

 Walker ; but Smith described the female only, and the latter's 

 type in the British Museum belongs to that sex, and is, more- 

 over, generically distinct from either of Walker's females, which 

 are certainly not co-specific ! a is apparently a female Tricho- 

 cri/ptas, though the metanotal areola is obsolete ; it is ■ black, 

 with its face (nearly concealed by the card) entirely whitish, as 

 are the anus and flagellar band ; the front legs may be partly 

 pale ; terebra nearly half abdominal length ; notauli obsolete ; 

 areolet weak and subquadrate ; length, 6 mm. /i is much 

 stouter, though similarly white-marked, but with the face en- 

 tirely black ; length, 8 mm. ; it is probably a Cratocryptus, but 

 is too greasy to allow of an adequate examination. Two speci- 

 mens, both with small and circular metathoracic spiracles. 



8. Mesostenus laticinctus (p. 304, $). — Exolytus Uevigatus, 

 Grav., S. The "Var. B. Hind femora black, except at the 

 base " is another male of this variable species. Four specimens. 



9. Glypta albicoxa (p. 304, 2). — So far from being "nearly 

 alhed to G. ceratitis " (sic), this is a typical specimen of Clisto- 

 pi/ga iiicitator, Fab., female, with pale hind cox?e, deierminately 

 white-banded hind tibise, and terebra (probably broken) unusually 

 short ; length, nearly 6 mm. One specimen. 



10. LissoNOTA SEMISTRIATA (p. 305, ? ). — One of the Agathid 

 Braconidfe, extremely closely allied to, if not synonymous with, 

 Earinus gloriatorius, Panz., female, with the Eev. T. A. Mar- 

 shall's account of which it agrees in every way except in its very 

 great size of 6 mm., with the terebra slightly longer than whole 

 body. One specimen. 



11. Macrus apicifer (p. 305, $ ). — A typical Syzcuctus, with 

 elongate metathoracic spiracles; black, with the legs, except 

 hind coxffi and base of their trochanters, pale ; four basal abdo- 

 minal segments red, with their apices, apical declivity of meta- 

 thorax, and (apparently) scutellum flavidous ; metapleurae with 

 no carinse ; cubital cell apically infumate ; areolet minute and 

 not as long as its petiole ; terebra 7, and body, 10 mm. in 

 length. It is none of the known Indian species of Lissonotinae. 

 One specimen. 



12. EcTHRUs ATRATOR (p. 306, ? ). — A remarkable black 

 Cryptid with only the flagellum partly and anus discally white ; 

 areolet pentagonal ; abdomen petiolate, terebra as long as the 

 abdomen ; it has the facies of Pristomerus, though with no 

 femoral tooth. Head very finely shagreened, discally subquad- 

 rate, with buccate cheeks ; prominent and internally parallel 

 eyes ; antennae fractae, with flagellum partly pure white ; notauli
