1912] Brazilian Ichneumonide and Braconide 199 
ous marks). Fore and middle legs fulvous, paler apically and with the 
last tarsal joint black on the fore and the last two on the middle pair. 
Hind coxz and a part of their trochanters ferruginous. Abdomen 
ferruginous except for the blackened tip of the petiole and small black 
stigmatal spots on segments 2-6, becoming obsolete on the later segments. 
Stigma and veins black. Head as broad as the thorax, nearly three 
times as broad as thick, rather thin and acute above; vertex punctulate; 
supra-antennal impression with a median carina and a few irregular 
radiating lines extending from the anterior ocellus; much deeper and 
shining just above the antennze. Face slightly elevated medially, 
confluently punctulate. Antennz 36-37 jointed evenly tapering to the 
apex, basal flagellar joint three times as long as thick, those at the 
middle twice as long as thick, and near apex, nearly quadrate. Clypeus 
at each upper angle with a fovea connected with the eye by a fine black 
line. Mandibles black at tips; palpi pale. Mesonotum closely punc- 
tate, without parapsidal furrows although there is a broad rugulose- 
reticulate streak in their place and between these behind are several 
short longitudinal striz. Scutellum very convex, finely punctulate, 
with a broad, deep fluted furrow across the base which has high raised 
lateral margins. Metathorax reticulate-rugose, somewhat longitu- 
dinally depressed along the median line, its spiracles oval, twice as long 
as wide. Basal transverse carina present on each side, but curving 
forward to the margin on each side before attaining the median line; 
sides with a shallow groove from the spiracle to the base of the coxa, 
lateral angles produced as blunt teeth, coinciding with the lateral angle 
of the triangular pale spot. Thorax seen from above, scarcely more than 
twice as long as wide, truncate posteriorly. Abdominal petiole longer 
than the metathorax, slender, smooth, the post-petiole longer than 
broad, with parallel sides; following segments smooth and shining, 
sparsely clothed with fine, fulvous hairs. Areolet very small, open 
apically; submedian cell slightly shorter than the median; discoidal 
vein broken above the middle; transverse median vein in hind wing 
broken at its lower fourth. 
Manaos, Brazil, Mann and Baker. One male. 
Crypturopsis minor sp. nov. 
Male. Length 9 mm. Similar to the preceding, but with less 
fulvous on the abdomen, and with the wings very distinctly infuscated 
apically and the antennz only 31-jointed. Front before the ocelli 
rugulose, the median carina present. Color of head and thorax as in 
the preceding species, except that the post-scutellum is pale and the 
metathorax entirely black above except for the small rounded lateral 
pale tubercular teeth. The fore legs are pale yellow with the femora 
fulvus and infuscated at base and tip; the middle coxe are yellow before 
and ferruginous behind and the apical three tarsal joints are black. The 
abdomen has the petiole entirely ferruginous and the post-petiole 
narrowed behind, while the following segments are black, with fulvus 
apical bands. Median and submedian cells of equal length. Otherwise 
as in C. brasiliensis, with the thoracic spots all somewhat smaller.
