Sagari/isi BRITISH ICHNEUMONS. 101 



rather larger size, more strongly narrowed vertex, short metanotal areola, 

 small alar fenestra, the stigma emitting radius almost from its centre, 

 abdominal segments a little shorter with terebra a little longer, the 

 anterior coxae pale in both sexes, the hind tibiae black with their centre 

 broadly white, and the stramineous ventral plica. 



A common European species; several on umbels in July and August 

 about Gottingen, etc., and Austria (Grav.) ; but very rare in southern 

 Sweden (Holmgr.). First recorded as British by Bridgman (Trans. Ent. 

 Soc. 1882, p. 149). Bignell captured this species (Trans. Devon. Assoc. 

 i8g8, p. 490) at Bickleigh, on 20th August and 2nd September. Appar- 

 ently very common in Surrey, whence I have a long series in Capron's 

 collection, though none have elsewhere occurred to me.
