480 Messrs. E. - Elliott and Claude Morley on the 
188. Pissodes notatus, Fab. 
Besides the species already mentioned, Dours gives 
(Cat., 72 e¢ 102) Bracon multiarticulatus, Ratz., and Cheiro- 
pachus tutela, Walk., as parasites of this destructive weevil ; 
Dalla Torre (Cat. Hym., i, 436) adds Pimpla instigator 
upon Rondani’s authority and its variety processioneae 
upon that of Ratzeburg, but these more probably emerged 
from their usual Bombyx. Giraud’s record of the para- 
sitism of Coeloides initiator, Nees, has more recently been 
confirmed by M. Carpentier (Marshall, Bracon. d’Europ., 
ili, 119). We have just seen, in December, 1910, two 
females of Alloderus semirugosus, Nees (cf. Entom., 1910), 
bred by Mr. G. H. Grosvenor last June from young Pinus 
sylvestris along with this beetle in Windsor Forest. 
191la. PISSODES VALIDIROSTRIS, Gyll.* 
Dr. Mayr records (Verh. z.-b. Ges., 1878, pp. 300 et seqq.) 
the parasitism of his Hurytoma Wachtli upon this species ; 
he says a single ¢ was bred in February from the weevil 
in branches of Pinus nigricans at Bruhl, near Vienna. 
193. Orchestes alni, Linn. 
Goureau also found Pteromalus daimenes, Walk., and 
Entedon divitiacus, Gour., to prey on this weevil (Dours, 
Cat., 104 e¢ 108); from which Rondani bred his Sparthio- 
philus orchesticida (Bull. Soc. Ent. Ital., 1877, p. 198). 
195. Orchestes fagi, Linn. 
Opius straminator, Gour., and Hntedon distinctus, Gour., 
were both bred from this species (Dours, Cat., 85 e¢ 109) 
in France by their author. 
200a. RHAMPHUS FLAVICORNIS, Clair. 
Rondani is said to have bred the British Chalcid, Cirro- 
spilus vittatus, Walk., from this insect by Dalla Torre (Cat. 
Chal., 84); and another of our species, Hunotus cretaceus, 
Walk., has also been raised from it by Geraud (lib. cit., 
158).
