558 On the Ichneumonidse in the British Museum. 
The name Colganta, Cam., must sink as a synonym of 
Mansa, as pointed out by Morley. 
Cryptus exul, sp. n. 
@. Nigra; antennis 32-articulatis, basi rufo-testaceis; articulis 
6-10 albido-flavidulis ; articulis apicalibus nigris ; mandibulis in 
medio, elypeo, orbitis, segmentis abdominalibus quinto sequenti- 
busque, aliquando quarto etiam, femoribus, tibiis tarsisque rufo- 
ferrugineis ; tarsis posticis articulis secundo tertio quartoque 
‘ flavescentibus; stigmate basi tegulisque albo-flavidulis; alis 
hyalinis leviter infumatis, venis fuscis. 
¢. Femine similis; antennis nigris, scapo flavo-testaceo; seg- 
mento abdominali quarto aut toto aut dimidio apicali rufo- 
ferrugineo. 
Long., 2, 9 mm., terebre long. 3mm.; ¢, 8 mm. 
9. Antenne filiform, the apical joint strongly excavated 
beneath; third and fourth joints about equal in length. 
Clypeus truncate at the apex ; mandible short, ending in two 
equal teeth. Face closely and finely punctured ; front and 
vertex opaque, finely shagreened. Mesonotum deflexed 
anteriorly, finely shagreened ; the parapsidal furrows distinet, 
but very shallow ; pleure finely granulate. Median segment 
with two transverse carine, both somewhat arched in the 
middle, the basal portion of the dorsal surface before the first 
carina subopaque and almost smooth; the apical and smaller 
portion between the two carine finely longitudinally striate- 
rugulose ; the posterior angles produced into a stout, rounded, 
Jamelliform spine on each side ; spiracles small and round ; 
the apical slope finely granulate. Abdomen smooth and 
shining ; second tergite as long as its apical breadth ; valvuls 
broad and flattened. Areolet rather large, the transverse 
cubital nervures parallel, the cubital margin slightly bent in 
the middle at the point of reception of the recurrent nervure. 
Outer angle of the discoidal cell blunt; nervulus interstitial ; 
nervellus intercepted far below the middle. 
g. Apical antennal joint not excavated beneath; spines at 
the apical angles of the median segment absent ; first tergite 
long and slender, second nearly twice as long as its apical 
breadth.

April 65:1913 (Turner); 9 9 9,10 S di 
This is not a typical Oryptus, differing in the small round 
spiracles of the median segment and the parallel-sided areolet. 
The lamelliform spine at the apical angles of the median 
segment is a sexual character in this species.
