22 Mr. Ernest A. Elhott and Mr, Claude Morley ox the 
this beetle at Grand Jouan, in France (ii, 27); together 
with Sigalphus facialis, from old ivy stems (iii, 27), and 
quantities of Bracon sulcatus!" (iii, 82); Pteromalus elon- 
gatus was also bred by him at Ludwigsberg from ivy stems 
along with the same host (au, 244). Spathius claviger is 
recorded (Ann. Soc. F. 1877, p. 415) upon Perris’ authority 
from Blastophagus hedere by Giraud ; and Ochina ptinoides 
is given by Marshall (Bracon. d’Kurop. i, 207) as a host of 
Hecabolus sulcatus, Curt. 
60. Mesocewlopus niger, Miill. 
The host of Pteromalus Opisthotonus*® has not been 
bred anywhere else, says Ratzeburg (Ichn. d. Forst. ii, 
194); according to Reissig it is Xyletinus murinus; and 
the parasite emerged on 11th June, from an old woody 
fungus on oak. 
61. Dorcatoma dresdensis, Herbst.* 
Nees says of Bracon ephippium™ : “EK larvis Dorcatome 
Dresdensis, Boleto igniario nutritis, Sickershusi, mense 
Maio mares et femine exclusi sunt” (Hym. Ichn. aff. Mon. 
i,65). Thisis quoted by Kirchner (Cat. 132) and Marshall 
(Bracon. d’Europ. ). 
62. Dorcatoma setosella, Muls. 
From Dorcatoma setosella, Laboulbene records (Ann. Soe. 
Fr, 1877, p. 435) the curious Cephalonomyia formicrfornus, 
Westw. 
63. Sinoxylon sexdentatum, Oliv.* 
Upon the authority of Perris, Giraud (/id. cit. p. 435) 
gives Cephalonomyia formiciformis, Westw., as parasitic 
upon this beetle. 
64. Bostrychus capucinus, Linn. 
Perris tells us vaguely (Ann. Soc. Fr. 1850, t. viii, p. 
565) that Apate capucina is attacked by some Braconid, 
which he was unable to determine. 
65. Xylopertha sinuata, Fab.* 
Apate sinuata and Evcoptogaster intricatus were both 
thought by Ratzeburg (Ichn. d. Forst. ii, 187) to be 
parasitised by Pteromalus bimaculatus; a large specimen 
of which emerged from an oak stick containing larve of 
the above beetles. He also queries (ii, 211) Helcon 
carinator as preying upon Bostrychus sinwatus.
