Opius pallipes Provancher, Natur. Canad., vol. 12, 1880, p. 164; vol. 15, 1883,

This species apparently resembles P. dimidiatus Nees as described 

 by Marshall.' The first abdominal tergite is without a distinct 

 median longitudinal carina and the ovipositor is apparently longer 

 than in dimidiatus. No other representatives of the genus Phano- 

 meris are recorded from North America so far as known.
