second abdominal segment ; the abdomen red from the centre of 

 the second segment ; the terebra shorter than the basal segment 

 and strongly reflexed ; all the coxae and trochanters black ; all the 

 calcaria stout and very pale stramineous. 



I have seen only a single female, and there are two males in the 

 Pusa collection. 



Genus TROPHOCAMPA, ScJim. 



Trophocampa, Schmiedeknecht, Hym. Mitteleurop. 1907, p. 598. 

 GENOTYPE, not cited. 



Head transverse and posteriorly constricted, with the eyes 

 distinctly emarginate internally and the face hardly constricted 

 apically. Antennae about half the length of the body, Meta- 

 thorax longitudinally impressed centrally, often with some traces 

 of basal areae ; areola wanting ; spiracles circular or shortly oval. 

 Abdomen, at least apically, strongly compressed ; terebra distinctly 

 a little exserted. Areolet entire and subregular. 



Range. Palaearctic Eegion. 



This genus was recently erected for the reception of those 

 species of Campoplex with circular or subspherical metathoracic 

 spiracles and differs in no other feature, excepting the extension 

 of the epipleurae to the apex of the third segment.

$ . A black species with Avhite pubescence, the abdomen mainly 

 red and the anterior legs stramineous. Head strongly constricted 

 posteriorly, with the palpi and mandibles flavescent. Antenna 

 longer than half the body and apically attenuate, with the two 

 basal flagellar joints subequal in length. Thorax longer than higb r 

 dull and alutaceously punctate ; metathorax obliquely declivous 

 and with white hairs throughout, centrally impressed, but with no 

 arese ; spiracles circular. Scutellum a little convex. Abdomen 

 discally linear, with the third and following segments strongly 

 compressed and red, apex of the second red ; basal segment much 

 longer than the hind coxae and trochanters, with the postpetiole 

 ovate and longer than broad ; second segment more than twice as 

 long as broad and obsoletely alutaceous, slightly widened apically 

 and narrowly red laterally from the thyridii ; third half as long 

 again as the breadth of its black base ; terebra as long as the 

 second segment. Legs black, with the anterior tibiae and front 

 femora stramineous ; hind tibiae centrally fulvescent and, at 

 extreme base, white before the subbasal dark fascia. Wings 

 hyaline, with the stigma black and the tegulae pale; radial cell
