132 A. Arsöne Girault: 



Genus Pentarthron Riley. 



1. Penthartron ewproctidis Girault. 



Dr. L. 0. Howard has sent me two trichogrammatids mounted 

 on a Single slide which can not be separated from this species. The 

 slide bore the label ,,From eggs of Odonestes superanus. Tokio, Japan, 

 C. Sasaki. (32)." I have previously recorded this species from Japan 

 but the host is new. 



Genus Abhella Girault. 



1. Abhella acuminata (Ashmead). 



A Single female of this species has been found in the coUections 

 of the Illinois State Laboratory of Natural History, Urbana, bearing 

 the accession No. 5871 and reared from corn, Mt. Pulaski, Illinois, 

 June 6, 1885. It occurred incidentally. 



Family Ulymaridae. 



Subf amily Gonatocerinae. 

 Tribe Gonatocerini. 

 Genus Leimacis Foerster. 

 1. Leimacis aspidioticola (Ashmead). 



Unless the types of this species can be found, it will be extremely 

 difficult to identify it again with any amount of certainty, owing 

 to the obvious discrepancies occurring in its original description. 



Genus Alaptus. 



1. Alaptus (jlohosicornis Girault. 



I have an undoubted specimen of this species, described in 1908 

 from Florida (United States of America), which was coUected in an 

 Office at Honolulu, Hawaii, August 3, 1900 by Albert Koebele. As 

 the species is recorded as a parasite of coccids, it is not unlikely that 

 it was imported into Hawaii in shipments of fruit trees. The original 

 habitat of this species, hence, is problematical but perhaps it is a 

 tropical form. The longest marginal cilia of the fore wing are plainly 

 three and a half times longer than those wings' greatest width. The 

 proximal funicle Joint is not as small as shown in the figure accompa- 

 nying the original description. 



Genus Litus Haliday. 



1. Litus enocki Howard. 



Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., XVIII, 1896, pp. 643—644. 



This species was described in 1896 from. Ceylon and it has not 

 been taken since. Its author has very kindly loaned me the types 

 for study and I add here the following supplementary descriptive 

 notes from them: 



Generic position and original description correct. With the habitus 

 of an Alaptus, especially in antennal and wing structures. As described 

 but the scape and pedicel are normal and as in Alaptus the pedicel
