 C. hewitti, sp. n., belongs to the group of which C. striahis, Mayr, and C. crassi- 

 tarsiis, Mayr, may be taken as representatives. It is at once known in the 2 by the 

 short ovipositor and the terminal segments of the funicle, while the ^ is equally 

 characterised by the head and propodeon.

Eupristina verticillata, sp. nov. 



_?. — Head wider than deep (11 : 10) ; clypeus with a tine median ridge and 

 distinct but not prominent oral lobes, each with one bristle. The antennal grooves, 

 above the toruli, occupy about one-third of the width of the frons. Trophi : man- 

 dibles apically bidentate, with about live ventral ridges (fig. 3, a), anterior edge much 

 swollen ; appendage narrow, with 8-10 ridges (fig. 3, a, a}) of which 2-3 near the 

 articulation are strong, projecting tooth-like at the inner edge ; maxillae (fig. 3, b)

of stiff, rather fine, recurved bristles on inner dorsal aspect (fig. 2, c) ; process or 

 appendage of third joint long, completely articulated; sense-organs on joints 5-11 

 long and tubular, subapical in position ; besides these on the outer apical edge of the 

 sixth joint a small cup-shaped sensorium with a short central process (fig. 2, b), and 

 another much larger one on the basal half of the eleventh joint (fig. 2 b, d) ; at the 

 extreme apex of the club a group of sensory spines — five in all (fig. 2, d).
