  Type-species. 
  — 
  Zaparaphylax 
  perinse, 
  new 
  species. 
  

  

  This 
  genus 
  agrees 
  with 
  Foerster's 
  description 
  of 
  Diaglypta, 
  except 
  

   in 
  the 
  first, 
  dorsal, 
  abdominal 
  segment, 
  which 
  can 
  hardly 
  be 
  regarded 
  

   as 
  being 
  broad 
  and 
  robust; 
  ignoring 
  the 
  occipital 
  carina 
  it 
  agrees 
  best 
  

   with 
  ParapTiylax 
  (Foerster) 
  Ashmead, 
  from 
  which 
  it 
  difteis 
  chiefly 
  in 
  

   the 
  doi-sulum 
  having 
  notauli 
  that 
  are 
  relatively 
  as 
  long 
  and 
  as 
  deep 
  as 
  

   in 
  Bathythrix 
  (Foerster)

  in
