Subfamily Telenomina?. 



OciiKS Paratelenomus. fietc (jenits. 



9 Agreeing witii the description of Dissolcus Ash- 

 mead but the occiput of the head is distinctly concave ; 

 the scutum is distinctly wider than long : the parapsidal 

 furrows are complete, and distinct ; and the abdomen 

 is broadly oval, scarcely as long as the head and thorax 

 united, only slightly longer than wide, the 2nd segment 

 much wider than long. Like Telenomus Haliday but 

 differing in bearing complete parapsidal furrows. 



Type : Telenomus bicolor, Dodd. 



Ent. News, Philadelphia, U.S.A., Vol XXV, June, 

 1914, pp. 251-2. 



Genus Phanuromyia, neiv genus. 



9 Like Telenamus Hahday but the o\ripositor and 

 its valves exserted for a length equal to that of tKe abdomen. 

 I have not previously seen, nor have I come across 

 record of, any Scelionid with a truly exserted ovipositor, 

 that is with the valves exserted, and thus, I think that 

 character alone all sufficient to form a quite distinct new 

 genus. 



Ty2)e : the following species. 



Pharunomyia rtjfobasalis, sp. nov. 



9 Length, 0.95 mm. 



Black ; legs (including coxse) and antennal scape 

 golden yellow ; pedicel and funicle suffused yellowish ; 

 first abdominal segment bright reddish. 



Head transverse, no wider than the thorax, dorsal 

 aspect, its cephalic margin convex, the occiput concave ; 

 eyes rather large ; ocelli wide apart, small, the lateral 

 ones situated against the eye margins. Thorax no longer 

 than wide ; scutum large, without furrows ; postscutellum 

 faintly emargined at meson ; metanotum very short, its 

 cau do -lateral angles sub -acute. Abdomen distinctly 

 narrower than the thorax ; one -half longer than wide ;
