184 BRITISH ICHNEUMONS. [Angitia 



second segment short with terebra not longer than postpetiole, the hind 

 trochanterellus and tibial centre whitish, and a small size of rarely more 

 than four millimetres. 



Originally this species was bred in Elngland by ( \. Elisha from Ornix 

 scoticdla or Ncplicula auciiparia (flntom. 1884, p. 67) ; and it has not yet 

 been noticed on the Continent. Subsequently Dale raised it in Dorset 

 from Cohophora flavagimlla,\Ae\\v^. (E.M.M. 1887, p. 214). It is by no 

 means common and I possess less than a dozen specimens; J. C. Watkins 

 sent me a pair, bred together from the leaves of Hypeikum perforatum in 

 in the autumn of 1895 near Painswick in Gloucester; Rev. C. D. Ash bred 

 a female on ist May, 1809, from LilhocoUctis e/nbcrizaipLnnella, Boie, found 

 at Selby in Yorks in October ; and Bankes raised a female, with two 

 Apanhlcs, in July, 1906, from Cokophora alricolclla, Zell., found at Yar- 

 mouth in the Isle of Wight. Adams has captured it at Lyndhurst in July, 

 and I have occasionally swept it in Suffolk at Bungay by the Waveney in 

 June and in Bentley Woods on 22nd Sejjtember; it seems connnonest 

 towards the end of the latter month and I have then taken the males at 

 Barnby Broad and Foxhall on the flowers of Angdica sylvislris sparingly. 

 Bridgman later took it in autumn at Household and Earlham near 

 Norwich, and adds (Trans. Norf. Soc. 1894, p. 620) Gracillaiia tringi- 

 peimella, Cokophora discordclla, BcdcUia soiiiinihiilclla and Gtkc/ria "'ih'//a 

 to its hosts. 



9. annulipes, Bridg. 



Liinncria (Angitia) annulipes, Bridg. Trans. Ent Soc. 1889, p. 424, c? ? . 



Black and slightly nitidulous. Head somewhat constricted behind the 

 eyes, with the face subquadrate and clypeus aj^ically rounded; cheeks not 

 buccate; palpi and mandibles flavous. Antennae filiform, somewhat 

 shorter than body and apically hardly attenuate. Thorax subelongate ; 

 metathorax somewhat smooth and shining, with upper areae entire; areola 

 pentagonal, longer than broad and apically distinctly entire. Abdomen 

 slender with postpetiole subglobose and about a third broader than 

 petiole; remaining segments subparalled-sided ; the second a third 

 longer than broad, as long as the first and, like it, scabriculous with the 

 following smoother and third quadrate; terebra only just exserted. Legs 

 flavescent-red ; all the coxae and base of hind trochanters black, anterior 

 trochanters stramineous and apices of intermediate femora nigrescent; 

 hind trochanterellus, extreme base of both their tibiae and tarsi, with 

 centre of the former broadly, whitish. Wings with stigma and tegulae 

 stramineous ; areolet entirely wanting, apical radial abscissa curved ; 

 nervellus not geniculate. Length, 3.5 mm. 



It is said to be very like A. croccipes and to come very near A. Elishac, 

 from which it differs in having the second and third segments longer, the 

 terebra shorter and stigma pale. 



Bridgman knew a single pair, both sexes of which were bred from 

 Biicciilatrix ddarklla, the female by Atmorc — presumably not in Norfolk, 

 since it does not figure in his county list of 1894 — and the male by 

 Fletcher of Worthing.
