58 Eev. T. A. Marshall's monograph of 



the 1st segment piceous ; antennae at the base, and legs, including 

 all the coxae, testaceous ; hind tibiae and tarsi fuscescent towards 

 the apex. Wings hyaline, squamulae and nervures testaceous, 

 stigma brown, hyaline at the base, not touching the 2d cubital 

 areolet ; 1st abscissa of the radius very short, punctiform. First 

 abdominal segment widened behind ; tubercles prominent. $ ? . 

 Length, \\\ wings, 2^ lin. 



Antennae of the $ 24-jointed, rather longer than the body; of 

 the 2 shorter than the body, 20-jointed. Head and thorax as in 

 pallidijjes, but the face is not pubescent. Mesothoracic sutures 

 crenate, conniving before the scutellum ; medial lobe thickly, and 

 scutellum sparingly, punctate. Metathorax punctato-rngulose. 

 First abdominal segment of the 2 striolated, slender and coarctate 

 at the base, widened to the tubercles, which are prominent and 

 acute; thence to the apex the sides are nearly parallel, the apex 

 being twice as broad as the base ; the same segment of the $ 

 differs in being a trifle narrower. The rest of the abdomen is rufo- 

 piceous, darker posteriorly. The wings differ from those of 

 pallidipes in that the 1st abscissa is punctiform, so that the stigma 

 almost touches the 2d cubital areolet ; the radius is somewhat 

 obtusely rounded beneath the stigma; the latter is larger; the 

 nervures paler and more obsolete. Pobrachial areolet of the hind 

 wings closed. 



Described from two males taken at Nunton, Wilts, and 

 one female from the Isle of Wight.

Leiophron picipes, Hal., Ent. Mag., ii., 464, $ ? (not 

 of Curtis). 



Antennae ? 16— 18-jointed, subclavate, not longer than the head 

 and thorax; of the $ 19 — 21-jointed, shorter than the body. 

 Black, abdomen after the 1st segment inclining to piceous ; 

 antennae and legs testaceous, the former towards the apex, the 

 latter with the hind coxas more or less, and sometimes the tips 

 of the hind tibiae, fuscous ; or the fore legs pale piceous, the 

 posterior darker, and the hind coxae black. Wings dull hyaline, 

 squamulae, stigma, and nervures piceous, more or less pale; stigma 

 hyaline at the base and not reaching the 2d cubital areolet. Face 

 not remarkably pubescent. Mesothorax shining, punctate. Meta- 

 thorax minutely reticulato-rugoso. First abdominal segment 

 gradually widened to the apex, which is twice as broad as the base, 

 striolated; the other segments smooth and shining. $ J. Length,
