Ichneumonidae. 39 
tibiae, black. Wings hyaline, the apex slightly clouded, 
the stigma and nervures black ; the areolet wide, shortly 
appendiculated, receiving the recurrent nervure before 
the middle. Metanotum with only 2 large, 5-angled lateral 
basal areae. Ovipositor slightly shorter than the hind 
tarsi. — Length 10 mm; terebra 1,5 mm. 
Himalayas. 
Head and thorax smooth, the face densely covered 
with white pubescence; the clypeus less densely pube- 
scent. Parapsidal furrows narrow, distinct on basal slope 
only. The inner side of the metanotal areae is long, 
roundly curved ; the outer basal half is almost straight ; 
the apical is obliquely sloped to the lateral keel, where 
it forms a sharp angle with the inner one. The Ist ab- 
dominal segment is not one fourth longer than it is wide 
at the apex ; the base is depressed, the depression keeled 
laterally ; the other segments are wider than long, the 2nd 
wider than the others compared with the width; it is 
smooth as is also the apical; the others are closely, di- 
stinctly punctured ; the furrow on the apex of the 2nd 
segment is wide, deep and stoutly striated; the striae 
clearly separated ; the apical furrows on the 3rd to 6th are 
not so deep nor so strongly striated; their basal furrows 
are weak. All the spots on the abdomen are wider 
than long ; the 1st pair are obliquely narrowed on the 
innerside; the 2nd are irregular and narrower on the inner- 
side ; the 3rd broadly, but not much narrowed at the apex; 
the 4th are of almost equal width. 
3. Xanthopimpla Binghami, n. sp. d!. 
Luteous, a triangular mark covering the ocelli, a 
broad, somewhat irregular stripe on the mesonotum 
between the tegulae which they do not quite reach, the 
lateral basal areae, 2 irregular transverse marks on the 
ist abdominal segment, a broad, irregular transverse 
stripe in the middle of the 3rd, slightly roundly narrowed 
at the base and with a small triangular incision in the 
middle of the apex, 2 broad transverse marks on the 5th, 
a narrower transverse stripe on the base of the 7th and 
a short black line on the base of the hind tibiae, black. 
Flagellum of antennae brown, black above. Wings hyaline, 
slightly clouded at the apex, the stigma and nervures 
black ; the areolet shortly appendiculated, receiving the 
recurrent nervure in the middle. Metanotum with only 2 
areae at the sides of the base; they are wider than long,
