KI'KXOCLvENOIDKS new genus. 



1. EPEXOCLSNOIDES BICINCTUS new species. Genotype. 



Femalv: — Length. :i mm. Ihlliis from the genotype of E.T(ichriuii(lcs in having the 

 postscutellum simple, the caudal coxa abcuc without a tootli, the small teeth on the caudal 

 femur ventrad very minute and comblike, numerons; also, the cephalic co.xa is a little shorter, 

 the ovipositor much shorter, just reaching the dorsum fro:n around the ajiex. Dark red, the 

 following parts black: Head, eejihalic margin of scutum rather narrowly, cephalolateral angle 

 of same subquadrately and mesad of the leimm yellow lateral margin of scutum, a rounded 

 spot on propodeum on each side of meson, lateral margin of propodeum (followed laterad by 

 yellow), segment 4 of abdomen excejit ventro laterad and on each side of the yellow baud 

 mentioned later, segment o of abdomen, v:ilvi's of ovi|iositiir. mesopleurum (except a rectangular 

 yellow marking mentioned later); ce|dialic coxa', ]>roxim;il third or nuire of cephalic tibisc 

 caudad, middle coxa? and center of middle femur cando-ventrad: mesal face of caudal co.\ie, 

 latero-cephalic face of same at base, latero-caudal face of same except at dorsal edge at base 

 and whole of ventral edge, the red widening ventrad; a large subquadrate black area from 

 ventral edge nearly to dorsal or mesal aspect of caudal femur commencing a little out from 

 base and e.xtending two thirds the way to ajiex; a round spot on lateral aspect of same near 

 dorsal edge just out from b.ase. The following parts lemon yellow: The sheu't, stout scape, 

 cephalic margin of pronotum, a narrow Viand across pronotum just before its caudal edge and 

 abbreviated laterad, lateral nmrgin of scutiun, a longer ( ventro-dorsad) than wide area on 

 cephalic mesopleurum, its cephalic margin red, metapleurum except cephalic edge (red) and 

 caudad (black which ruiis on to the pro|.odenm). caudal margin rather broadly of the scntellum, 

 two distinct encircling b:inds on alidomen. the first at apex of proximal third (segment ."!, all 

 of its dorsal aspect), the second ;it a|iex of pnixinial three fourths (just under apex of 

 ovipositor and at distal fourth of segment 4), iHitli ending ventro laterad; apex on 

 each side of ovipositor; distal third of cejihalic and middle femora caudad, dorsal and 

 cephalic aspects of cephalic tibia>, cephalic and middle knees, middle tibia?; all tarsi; 

 extreme dorsal corner of caudal coxa; dorsal aspect of c;iudal tibia except at base; distal 

 two thirds of caiulal femur along dorsal edge rather broadly. Caudal femur with one 

 large tooth followed by many comblike ones. Densely jiunctate. F,-u>e and distal two thirds of 

 abdomen fussy, rest of body less distinctly so. Fore wings smoky under distal two thirds of 

 venation and distad to apex, broadly so distad of stignml vein to and around apex. Also, a 

 rather large, long-triangular (base distad) spot on caudal femur along ventral edge (lateral 

 aspect) just out from base is lemon yellow. 



Pedicel short, a little shorter than funicle 1 which is narrower proximad than distad; 

 funicle 2 slightly longer than 1, slightly longer than wide, the following joints gradually, 

 slightly shortening; club 4 very short, 1 large, wider than long.
