fuscous ; the areolet narrowed on tlie lower side beyond tlie 

 recurrent nervure, broader than lon<;- ; the second transverse 

 cubital nervure faint. Petiole rufous, its apex yellowish, 

 finely aciculated ; the sides and the middle regions inarg-ined 

 by a fine keel; the apical third of the second segment and 

 the apical two segments entirely white. 



GOTUA, gen. nov. 



(J . AntennjB longer than the body, densely pilose ; the 

 basal joint of the rtagellum distinctly longer than the third. 

 Kyes large, parallel, distinctly distant from the base of the 

 mandibles, which iiave two large teeth. Clypeus not sepa- 

 rated from the face by a sutuie. Occiput not distinctly 

 margined; the front and vertex stoutly obliquely striated. 

 Mesonotum with the parapsidal furrows narrow, shallow. 

 Median segment large, |)uuctured or reticulated all over; the 

 basal keel complete, the second iiicouij)lete ; the spiracles 

 linear, about four times longer than broad. Areolet small, 

 narrow, contracted slightly at the base ; the recurrent 

 nervure is received near the apex ; the transverse basal 

 nervure is interstitial. Legs stout ; the hinder elongate, the 

 tarsi spinose, scarcely longer than the tibiae. Petiole slender, 

 longer than the second segment, slightly dilated at the apex ; 

 the spiracles are received near the base ot" the basal fourth j 

 the gastrocoeli shallow. 



The female has the antennse as in Mesostenus ; the ovi- 

 positor in the known species is short. 



This genus has the small areolet of Ceratacryptus, but it 

 wants the frontal tubercles; the clypeus is not separated from 

 the face by a suiure ; the mesonotum closely punctured, 

 opaque, with the sutures not so deep ; the median segment 

 not striated, &c. The same characters separate it from 

 Friona, which has also the front striated, but it may be 

 known by the larger square areolet. From Mesostenus it may 

 be sejjarated by the linear, not round, meta horacic spiracles.
