Holcobracon fulvus, Cam. 



Ilokobrncun f ulcus, Cam. Spolia Zeylanica, iii. p. 90 (1905). $. 



Subsp. atriceps, nov. 



$ . Differs from the typical form from Ceylon in having 

 the whole of the vertex black, and the longitudinal stride on 

 the third tergite extend a little further from the base thau 

 in the tvpe.

 1 ? ; Kangra Valley, 43()0 ft., August (G. C. Dudgeon), 1 ? . 



Cameron subsequently (1910) used the generic name 

 Holcobracon a second time for an African genus, which 

 apparently is allied to Iphiaulax. 



Trichiobracon striolatus, Szepl. 



I have given the synonyms of this Bornean species pre- 

 viously (Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (8) xx. p. 245, 1917). 



Specimens from Dehra Dun (September 1913, No. 13) 

 differ from the typical form in having the sides of the 

 second tergite distinctly punctured ; whereas in specimens 

 from Borneo the punctures are more or less confluent, 

 running into longitudinal striae. It is probable that the 

 Indian specimens represent a distinct subspecies. 



Duryctomorpha antipoda, Ashm. 

 Uori/ctomorpha aniipoda, Asliiu. Eutom. News, xi. p. 030 (1900). 9- 



A female from Wilton's Bush, New Zealand, answers to 

 the description, exc pt in having the antennie 28-joiuted 

 and the terebra only equal in length to the insect, not longer. 

 A^ilimead's description reads " Antennae 2-3-jointed," pro- 

 bably meaning 23. I consider it probable that the New 

 Zealand and Chatham Island forms represent only one 

 species. 



Subfamily Beaconinjb (olim Aynthince). 



Genus Orgilus, Hal. 



The three species of Orgilus described here may be sepa- 

 rated by the following key : — 



1. Second tergite transverse, much broader than long, 



fourth tergite opaque and coriaceous O. apostoiiatt. 



Second tergite subquadrate, fourth tergite shining, 



almost smooth 2.
