48 Mr. Ernest A. Elliott and Mr. Claude Morley on the 
bark in which larve of this weevil were boring (11, 106) ; 
Brachistes atricornis,* bred in spruce bark under which 
were these larva (ii, 28); and Stgalphus curculionum,” 
which is said by Hartig to be its chief parasite (ii, 74). 
191. Pissodes piniphilus, Herbst.* 
From this weevil, which is very closely allied to P. notatus, 
Ratzeburg (/. ¢. i, 249) bred only Bracon palpebrator. 
192. Ovrchestes. 
Nordlinger bred Hntedon confinis at Grand Jouan, in 
France (J. ¢. ii, 166), and Ratzeburg records in Germany 
Eulophus xanthops®° (i, 23), which both preyed upon 
unspecified individuals of this genus. 
193. Orchestes alni, Linn. 
Tetrastichus orchestis, Forst., is indicated by Laboulbene 
(Ann. Soc. Fr. 1877, p. 434) as having been bred by Dr. 
Giraud from this species. 
194. Orchestes leucaspis = ? scutellaris, Germ. 
Nordlinger bred from 0. leucaspis, Mus. Ber. (= semarufus, 
Koll.), in birch leaves Sigalphus fulvipes ° (Ichn. d. Forst. 
il, 26), Hulophus dendricornis (11, 155) and one g of Péero- 
malus Jowanensis (11, 199) ; and Ratzeburg says he obtained 
only one Pteromalus orchestis among many thousands of 
other parasites bred in this genus (11, 205), adding that the 
same species emerged from Orchestes lewcaspis at Grand 
Jouan in birch leaves. 
195. Orchestes fagi, Linn. 
Two specimens, and later (/.¢. 11, 28) a 3, of Brachistes 
minutus 8 were bred from Curculio fagi, together with 
one f of Pteromalus cruciatus (ii, 205), on 10th June by 
Herr Reissig (ii, 28) ; both sexes of Brachistes fagi,‘° bred 
by Brischke from this host early in June (iii, 28), as well 
as (iii, 249) Hvxothecus debilis, bred by Nordlinger and 
Reissig (iii, 42); Sigalphus caudatus, Entedon lutetpes; LE. 
flavomaculatus, bred by Reissig (iii, 208); #. lineatus,3 
one specimen bred by Nordlinger at Hohenheim (ii, 209); 
E. orchestis, bred at the same place by Nordlinger (i, 206), 
and FH. wanthostoma ; EHulophus lepidus,?! bred with Entedon 
xanthops by Nordlinger at Hohenheim Gi, 170 et in, 
242); HE, diachymatis **" and E. pilicornis—are all recorded
