Very rare. Occurs on Senecio. Bournemouth. Norwich ; 

 (Bridgman). Christchurch, Hants; {F. Smith). 



The description of the c? of this species in my synopsis 

 is from a small faded nigriceps. This description is from a 

 specimen taken by Smith at Bournemouth with the ? . I 

 have examined the type of tridentata ia Kirby's coll., and 

 it agrees exactly with the specimen here described. 



A. fuscipPS, Kirhy (puhescenit, Kirh.). — Black, head and 

 thorax punctured, clothed with pale fulvous hairs dorsally, 

 face and thorax beneath with paler hairs, hairs soon fading 

 to grey in the cj; c? with the joiuts of the antennie, espe- 

 cially the subapical cues, longer in proportion to their width 

 than in the preceding species, propodeum finely rugose, 

 the smooth lines at the sides of the basal area scarcely 

 indicated ; abdomen more finely punctured than in either 

 of the preceding, and clothed in both sexes with shorter less 

 erect hairs ; in the c? these are palo fulvous, soon fading to 

 grey, and form distinct apical bauds at the apices of the 

 segments ; in the ? the basal segment is clothed with erect 

 hairs at the base, the others with very short inconspicuous 

 semi-erect fulvous hairs, each with a distinct wide band of 

 decumbent paler hairs at the apex, the fifth segment and 

 the sides of the sixth densely clothed with adpressed black- 

 brown hairs; segments beneath irregularly fringed wiih 

 brownish hairs in both sexes, sixth ventral stgment much 

 reflexed at the apex in the S and subemarginate, apical 

 ventral valve narrow ; legs clothed with pale hairs in the c?, 

 tibisQ and tarsi in the ? with brown, paler on the side 

 towards the body ; apices of the tarsi testaceous in both
