ZELE ROSENBERGI, new species. 



Female. — Length 11 mm.; compared with Zele testaceator Curtis 

 this species may be described as follows: clypeus with the apical 

 margin rather reflexed; scape and pedicel combined apparently not 

 as long as the first joint of the flagel but obviously longer than the 

 second joint of the flagel; vertex with a blackish band extending 

 from eye to eye; thorax rather reddish; radius in hind wings practi- 

 cally straight and gradually diverging from the anterior margin of 

 the wing; second discoidal cell completely closed; wings tinged with 

 fuscous, veins dark brownish; stigma stramineous, infuscated; 

 fore- and mid-coxae rather stramineous; femora rather reddish; at 

 least mid- and hind-tibiae reddish, infuscated, their tarsi and spurs 

 rather blackish; apical third of propodeum separated from basal 

 two-thirds by an irregular transverse carina; upper half of abdomen 

 rather infuscated; sheaths of the ovipositor approximately as long 

 as the fourth dorsal segment.

FAMILY ICHNEUMONIDAE. 



ANILASTUS TRICOLORIPES, new species. 



Male. — Length 4.5 mm.; briefly characterized by the mostly black 

 or blackish coxae, the rest of the fore- and mid-legs being mostly 

 yellowish to testaceous, the rest of the hind legs mostly black, the 

 basal sixth of the hind tibiae yellowish white, the spurs of the same 

 whitish; costulae not fully developed or merely indicated; basal 

 area parallel sided, narrowly oblong, so that the bounding carinae are 

 almost in apposition; carina from the basal area to the insertion of 

 hind coxae distinct throughout. 



Type.— Cat. No. 13799, U.S.N.M. 



Type-locality. — Europe, Gipsy Moth Laboratory Nos. 1079 and 

 1065, U. S. Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Entomology. 



In a paratype there is a more or less developed lateral longitudinal 

 carina and an arcuate carina between the areola and petiolarea, also 

 the basal area is triangular, indicating considerable range in the 

 variation of the carinae of the propodeum. 



HYPOSOTER DISPARIS, new species. 



Female. — Length 6 mm.; black; covered with an appressed silvery 

 pubescence that is nowhere so dense as to obscure the tegument 

 except when viewed in certain lights; cheeks in the middle nearly 

 two-thirds as wide as the eye as seen from the side; malar line 

 about two-thirds as long as the mandibles are wide at base; clypeus 

 depressed along the anterior margin, which latter is nearly straight, 

 lateral suture represented by a smooth line that is not appreciably
