The jijemis resembles Microbracon., Ashm., except in the 

 neuratiou, whereas Aphrastobracoyi resembles the more 

 robust and sculptured Campi/ionenrus, Szepl. 



This is the first Ethiopian record of the subfamily, the 

 other species being Oriental. 



Subfamily Dortctinj:. 

 Holcobracon coxalis, sp. n. 



$ . Luteo-testacea ; flagello, terebra, valvulis, maadibulis apice, 

 tarsisque apice extremo nigris ; alls basi pallide flavo-byalinis, 

 diinidio apicali pallidissirae fusco-hyalinis ; stigraate fusco, basi 

 late flavo ; venis basi testaceis, apico fuscis ; coxis posticis 

 basi subtus tuberculatis. 



Long, 10 mm. ; terebrae long. 7 mm. 



? . Antennae very long and slender, at least 12 mm. in 

 length (the extreme apical joints missing in the only avail- 

 able specimen) ; face below the antennae very delicately 

 transversely rugulose ; frontal excavation shallow^ smooth, 

 and shining. Cheeks about one-third of the length of the 

 eyes, the eyes separated from the margin of the head by a 

 distance equal to half their diameter. Pronotura coarsely 

 punctured ; mesonotum smooth and shining ; parapsidal 

 furrows deep, finely creuulate. Scutellum with a transverse 

 groove at the base, the groove divided by a longitudinal 

 carina. Dorsal surface of the median segment smooth and 

 shining, divided by a shallow longitudinal groove, margined 

 posteriorly and laterally, the apic il slope punctured closely; 

 the sides of the segment more sparsely punctured, with a 

 longitudinal carina. First tergite less tban twice as long 

 as broad, finely and closely longitudinally striated ; second 

 tergite also finely longitudinally striated, broadly smooth at 

 the apex, an oblique sulcus running from the base at each 

 side, diverging and joining near the apex a coarsely-striated 

 transverse sulcus ; the apical tergites smooth and shining. 

 Hind coxa sparsely punctured, produced triangularly at the 

 base beneath to a small tubercle. Recurrent nervure 

 received by the first cubital cell; second abscissa of the 

 radius less than twice as long as the first.

This is distinguishable from typical Holcobracon by the 

 structure of the hind coxae, but I do not consider it suffi- 

 ciently distinct to deserve generic rank.
