The female of insularis should be easily recognized from 
the preceding generic description and from other characters 
given by Cameron, Howard and Ashmead, but the male has 
remained undescribed up to the present time. Cameron con- 
sidered his specimen to be a male, but his description applies 
only to the female sex. Howard’s supposed male of Blepyrus 
mexicanus clearly belongs to another genus, probably a new 
one allied to Anagyrus, and Ashmead’s supposed males of 
Coccophoctonus dactylopu are merely small females. 
The true male of msularis is very similar to the female in 
general appearance, and without close scrutiny might be mis- 
taken for that sex; it differs, however, rather remarkably in 
the structure of the antennae, as the funicle is three-jointed 
and the club is correspondingly enlarged. 
Male. Head somewhat smaller than in the female, less menisciform 
and thicker fronto-occipitally; eyes smaller and considerably wider in 
proportion to their length; frontovertex proportionately wider or some- 
what less than one-third the total width of head, and less widened behind 
the ocelli, the latter arranged nearly in a right-angled triangle, the 
posterior pair less than half their own diameter from the occipital mar- 
gin; face and cheeks nearly as in the female. 
Antennae inserted close to the clypeal margin; scape much shorter

and stouter than in the female, slightly widened in the middle, about 
one-half as long as the rest of the antennae and reaching only to the 
upper margin of the serobal impression of the face; pedicel short and
