 genera :

 wings with normal venation. Vertex and^.frons forming one 

 single curve, in profile. Posterior tibiae with a dou'ble row of 

 spines. Last abdominal sternite composed of two parts whic'h 

 overlap posteriorly but are separated anteriorly; they reach the 

 lateral margins of the abdomen. i. Eiirymeloides Ashmead.
