but distinct petiole, the abdomen behind this ovate, pointed at 

 the apex, triangular in outline, with rounded base. Ovipositor 

 not evidently exserted. 



Eomymar muiri sp. nov. 



Black or dark brown (becoming lighter in balsam) shining, 

 legs yellow, scape and pedicel of antennae more or less yellow, 

 or at least paler than the funicle (sometimes quite yellow in 

 balsam). 



Scape in the female widest (on its flat face) near the middle, 

 where it is obtusely angulated, the pedicel obconic, evidently 

 longer than wide, shorter by one-third to one-half its length 

 than the very elongate first funicle joint, which is slightly longer 

 than the second. Three, four and five subequal, but the last 

 of these is conspicuously wider than the fourth, the sixth still 

 stouter, the seventh wider still, about twice as long as wide, 

 hardly shorter than the preceding, though appearing so, owing 

 to its greater width. Club subequal to the three preceding 

 joints together. Antennae of male very long and slender, ped- 

 icel much shorter than the first of the funicle joints, these all 

 very elongate and mostly not differing much in length, the first 

 distinctly widened on its basal part, the seventh funicle joint 

 about four times as long as its greatest width, or rather less. 



Front wings about 12 or 15 times as long as the width beyond 

 the middle; a row of bristles on the apical part of the wing 

 along each margin, the bristles originating close to, and alter- 

 nating with, the long marginal setae; another row is placed 

 close to and just inwardly to each of these, while in the well de- 

 veloped submedian row the bristles are more or less irregularly 

 placed in the series. Sheaths of ovipositor at most very 

 slightly protruded beyond the dorsal extremity of the abdomen. 

 Length about .5 mm.

 ably P. vastatiix.
