Hymenopterous Parasites of Coleoptera. 489 
244. Hylastes palliatus, Gyll. 
In Britain, our first record is a Chalcid found in the 
burrows of this beetle by Donisthorpe at Nethy Bridge, 
late in July, 1907. 
247. Hylesinus fraxini, Panz. 
Goureau also raised his Hurytoma fulvipes from this 
borer in France (Dours, Cat., 97); and Mayr says (Verh. 
z.-b, Ges., 1879, p. 322) that Oberforster Wachtl bred the 
former’s Hurytoma auricoma from the same host in Febru- 
ary and April near Vienna, adding that in the museum 
there is a pair presented by Dr. Forster and called by him 
Eurytoma fraxini; he suggests that it may be synonymous 
with £. abieticola, Ratz., but is sceptical upon the point 
(cf. No. 234, supra). A Sand three 22 of Bracon longi- 
caudis were presented to the British Museum in 1907 by 
Rev. G. Crawshay, who had bred them from the cocoons 
of this beetle at Leighton Buzzard. 
248a. HYLESINUS BICOLOR, Brull.* 
From this borer, Perris has bred Hncyrtus megacephalus, 
Walk., Callimome nobile, Boh., Pteromalus semrotordes, Walk.., 
P. eulophoides, Walk., P. pirus, Walk., and the Proctotrypid, 
Sclerochloa fuscicornis, Westw. (Dours, Cat., pp. 91, 95, 1038, 
112); the last species has, however, been determined as 
Scleroderma Fonscolombei, Westw., by Kieffer (Proct., 1,234). 
2488. HYLESINUS THUYAE, Perris.* 
Dours says (Cat., 110) that its author raised from this 
beetle Tetrastichus deipyrus, Walk. 
250. Phloeotribus oleae, Fab.* 
From this species also has been raised in Italy, Rondani’s 
Eurytoma Bargaglii (Bull. Soc. Ent. Ital., 1877, p. 179). 
252. Hylurgus minor, Htg. 
Wachtl bred his new Chalcid, Heydenia excellens (Wien. 
Ent. Zeit., 1889, p. 89), from the same host in Austria ;
