British Braconide. Be 
I have included here three more of Forster’s genera, 
Homophyla, Asobara, and Idiolewis, each adapted to a 
single species. ‘lhe ‘European fauna contains 17 known 
species of Phenocarpa, of which 14 are British. The 
number would, no doubt, be greatly increased if foreign 
entomologists were to turn their attention to this tribe ; 
but, in our country, few species, if any, still remain 
undetected.
