stitial. Spurs short. Abdominal segments distinctly separated ; 

 the spiracles on P* abdominal segment placed shortly behind the 

 middle, nearer the middle than the base. Apex of clypeus trans- 

 verse ; its centre raised, semicircular. Spurs pectinated at the base. 

 I can only refer this genns to the Macrocentrinii but it is 

 hardly typical of that group ; the form of the abdomen is 

 different and it has not the long ovipositor of that group ; it 

 differs from the Zelini in having the spurs short. Characteristic of 

 the genus is the very large praebrachial areolet, with the nervu> 

 res bounding it thickened and the apical broadly roundly curved. 



\/ Cyclophatmcs flavus sp. nov. 



Pale yellow, the flagellum of antennae and an irregular line 

 on the sides of the base of the mesonotum, there being also 

 a black spot in the hollow at the tegulse ; the pubescence on 

 the body short, sparse and white ; on the legs denser and 

 longer. Wings hyaline, the costa, stigma and basal nervures 

 rufo-testaceous, the apical black ; the nervures at the posterior 

 apical margin of the 1**^ cubital cellule and the 2"*^ transverse 

 cubital nervure are bullated. Front and vertex smooth, the 

 front slightly depressed and with a shallow furrow ; the face 

 punctured, its pubescence long, white and dense. Ocelli bor- 

 dered by aT furrow. Mesonotum smooth, the pleurae and scutel- 

 lum punctured. Metanotum irregularly striated ; in the middle 

 of the base are 2 stout keels, united at the base, roundly 

 diverging from there. First abdominal segment stoutly, irregu- 

 larly striated, the 2^"^ more closely, regularly and not so strongly 

 striated; the 3"^ much more closely and finely striated, g. 



Length 9 m.m. 



Darjiliiig. 



The wings are large ; the abdomen is almost twice longer 

 than the thorax and is of the same width. The sheaths of the 

 ovipositor project and are about half a m.m. in length.
