Nat., March [24 February], 1882, v. 16, pp. 247-248, fig. 1. 

 Isosoma allynii French is a species of Eupelmus probably parasitic on some of 

 the wheat-stalk feeders and on some species of Chlorops ; habits and figures 

 of larva and description of female imago of Isosoma tritici [p. 247] ; com- 

 parisons between I. tritici and I. hordei; alleged habits of/, lineare of Eu- 

 rope; relative conspicuousness of the "humeral spot" in European, Ameri-

 in America ; hibernation of and means against P. punctatus.
