and decaton moderate, nearly equal in size ; protelum short; para- 
telum and telum very short: legs yellow; coxe green; hind thighs 
fuscous towards their base: wings limpid; nervures pale yellow; 
humerus much shorter than half the length of the wing; ulna half 
the length of the humerus; radius longer than the ulna; cubitus 
more than half the length of the ulna; stigma very small. 
Female.—Antenne subclavate, as long as the thorax; first joint 
long, slightly curved; second long-cyathiform; third and fourth 
very minute; fifth and following joints to the ninth successively 
broader ; club fusiform, broader than the ninth joint, and more than 
twice its length : abdomen much compressed, concave along the back 
towards the base, a little longer than the thorax, like that of the male 
as far as regards the relative size of the segments. 
Found by Dr. Greville in Northumberland. 
The thorax of this species is more convex than that of P. Adamas. 
11. Eupelmus Amphitus, fem. Viridis, micans, antennis nigris, ovi- 
ductu pedibusque flavis, profemoribus fusco vittatis, alis limpidis. 
(Corp. long. lin. 24; alar. lin. 4.) 
Bright golden green: head and thorax minutely squameous, pu- 
bescent: front of the head bluish green: eyes and ocelli red: an- 
tennz black, slender, subclavate, as long as the thorax: thorax

yellow, hardly equal to one-sixth of the length of the abdomen : legs 
yellow; a short fuscous stripe on the outside of each of the profe- 
mora ; mesotibiz armed with long spines; mesotarsi dilated: wings

length of the wing; ulna rather shorter than the humerus; radius 
about one-third of the length of the ulna; cubitus a little shorter

From Bombay. In the collection of the Rev. F. W. Hope. 
Eupelmus with Urocryptus, Cheiloneurus, Metapelma, Prionopelma, 
Caloseter and Stenocera ferms the family Kupelmide, to which Ly- 
cisca, Epistenia, Trigonoderus, Notanisus and Cleonymus are nearly 
allied. Platynocheilus and Merostenus may be included in the same 
group with the latter genera. 
12. Cerchysius Vulso, fem. Viridis, capite cupreo, abdomine an- 
tennisque nigris, pedibus flavis viridi cinctis, alis.limpidis. (Corp. 
long. lin. 3 ; alar. lin, 13.)

very short, a little broader than the thorax; vertex broad; front 
abruptly declining, not impressed : eyes of moderate size, not promi- 
nent : ocelli disposed in a triangle on the vertex : antennz black, sub- 
clavate, very slender, rather shorter than the body; first joint slender, 
very long; second rather long, increasing in breadth from the base 
to the tip ; the following joints from the third to the eighth succes- 
sively decreasing in length and slightly increasing in breadth ; club
