Subfamily TipniiyjE. 

 Tiphia meridionalis, Turn. 



Tiphia meridionaiis, Turn. Aun. & Mag. Nat. Ilist. (8) ii. p. 12S 



(1008). 2- 

 Tiphia phitensis, Bretbes, .\n. Mus. Xac. Buenos Aires, xx. p. 255 



(190i)). $. 



I think my identification is correct, but M. Bretlies omits 

 to mention the comparative length and breadth of the 

 median segment, an important point in this genus, in all 

 his descriptions of Tiphia. This character, however, has 

 usually been overlooked. 



Subfamily Scoliinje. 



Scolia [Triscolia) opalina, Sm. 

 ScoUa opalina, Sm. Journ. Proc. Linn. Soc, Zool. ii. p. 89 (1857). 



Scolia unimaculata, Kirby, Trans. Ent. Soc, London, p. 446 (1889). 5 • 

 Scolia lathona, Cam. Proc. -Zool. Soc. 1901, ii. p. 18. c?. 



This species ranges from Borneo to Tenasserim. 



Scolia erratica, Sm. 



Scolia erratica, Sm. Cat. Ilvm. B.M. iii. p. 88 (1855) ; Sauss. Ann, 



Soc. ent. France, (3) yi. p. 211 (1858). 

 Scolia molesta, Sauss. et Sichel, Cat. spec. gen. Scolia, p. Ill (1864). 



I consider that Saussure^s first identification of this 

 species was correct, the description of molesta answering 

 well to Smith's type. 



Scolia westermanm, Sauss. 



Scolia 2vestermanni, Sauss. Ann. Soc. ent. France, (3) vi. p. 212 (1858). 

 Scolia erratica, Sauss. et Sicbel, Cat. spec. gen. Scolia, p. 110 (1804) 

 (nee Smith). 



Saussure's name icestermanni should, I think, stand for 

 this species. 



Scolia indica, Sauss. 



Scolia iiidica, Sauss. Mem. Soc. phys. et hist. nat. Geneve, xiv. p. 46 



(1854). $. 

 Scolia eliformis, Sauss. Ann. Soc. entom. France, (3) vi. p. 215 



(1858). J. 



I have taken both sexes at Kaudy under circumstances 

 which leave no doubt as to the identity of the species, thougli 

 not actually in coitu.
