rugose ; the black apical segments are smooth ; the apical

ZANTiiOJOPrA, gen. nov. 



Scutellum pyramidal, with an oblique slope at the base and 

 apex, its sides on the basal slope keeled. Median segment 

 ■with a small basal and a large apical area; the sides with a 

 large leaf-like tooth. Antennae longish, dilated and com- 

 pressed beyond the middle. Labrum distinctly projecting. 

 Areolet 5-angled, wide at the top. Abdomen with seven 

 segments, the ventral fold extending to the base of the ovi- 

 positor. Abdominal segments finely and closely punctured. 

 Gastrocoeli narrow. The sheaths of the ovipositor are longer 

 than usual and project. 



The head is well developed behind the eyes and obliquely 

 narrowed ; the occiput is margined ; the eyes large. The 

 colour is yellowish, marked with black ; the dilated apical 

 part of the antennae is black ; the apex of the abdomen is 

 sharply pointed, it becoming gradually narrowed from the

nigris ; alis fulvo-hyalinis, stigmata fulvo. $ . 

 Long. 14 mm. 



Antennae nearly as long as the body ; the basal fourteen to 

 fifteen joints fulvous, the rest dilated, much attenuated at the 

 apex ; black, brownish beneath ; the scape sparsely covered 

 with short white hair ; the Hagellum almost bare. Head 

 yellow, the front and vertex with a triangular black line on

 bottom, the two being united and forming an hourglass-shaped 

 mark; the black is continued down the back in the centre; 

 the lower part of the liead behind is broadly black. The face 

 and clypeus closely punctured, sparsely covered with short 

 white microscopic hair; the front and vertex closely punc- 

 tured, except over the antennae, where it is quite smooth 

 and shining ; the mandibular teeth are black. The lower 

 part of the pronotum all round, three broad lines on the 

 mesonotum (the central originating at the base and reaching 

 to the middle, the lateral originating in front of the tegulae 

 and reaching to the scutellum), its sides along the tegulse, 

 the scutellar keels, the depression at the base of the scutellum,
