Catalogue of British Ichneumonidce. 425 



This species appears to me to be undescribed, and 

 comes next to A. rufim, but differs from that species m 

 coloration; it is also like A. i^erspicillator Ut tnis 

 Gravenhorst described the male only, and he says, 

 " antennae scarcely more than one-half the length ot the 

 body" in this species it is decidedly three-fourths the 

 length of the insect. Brischke (Die Ichn. d. Prov. 

 W u 0-Preuss) says somewhat half as long as the 

 body ; it is just possible that this may be the female ot 

 perspicillator, but I think it is not.
