ICHNEUMONID^. 

 CcELOJOPPA CARINISCUTIS, Sp. nOV. 



Black, sinning; the face, clypeus, the orbits, the basal half of the 

 mandibles, palpi, a line on the pronotum, a slightly broader one on the 

 lower edge of the propleurae, an irregular mark, broader than long, on 

 the mesonotum, the scutellums, the lower half of the mesopleurae, the 

 base of the mark curved upwards, the part under the hind wings, the 

 apex of the metanotum all round, the line narrowed on the top and at 

 the bottom reaching to the coxae, the narrowed part of the petiole, the 

 apex of the post-petiole, and of the other segments broadly, pale 

 yellow. The four front legs pallid yellow, the femora fulvous above, 

 the hinder legs dark fulvous, the coxse and trochanters more yellowish 

 in tint, and marked with black on the outer half at the apex ; the tibiae 

 darker in tint. Wings clear hyaline, the stigma fuscous, the nervures 

 darker. Petiole smooth and shining'; a fovea at the base of the post- 

 scutellum ; the second and following segments closely punctured ; the 

 gastrocoeii strongly striated, the apex testaceous. ? . Length, 8 mm.

Spilojoppa, gen. nov. 

 Scutellum flat, broad, not keeled laterally. Areola large, almost 

 twice longer than broad, of equal width throughout, open at the base ; 

 the lateral arere are separated ; there are no teeth on the apex. Head 

 large, as broad as the thorax ; the temples broad, the occiput roundly 

 incised. Eyes large, parallel ; the malar space small. Clypeus not 

 separated, its apex transverse, its sides rounded. Labrum hidden. 

 Mandibles with tlie upper tooth much larger than the lower. Antennae 

 stout, dilated and compressed beyond tlie middle. Petiole long, the 

 post-petiole not much dilated, the second and third segments closely 

 punctured, closely and finely longitudinally striated at the base. 

 Gastrocceli large, deep ; the last segment is fully larger than the 

 sixth ; the sheaths of the ovipositor largely project ; the ventral keel 

 extends to the apes of the fourth segment. Areolet five-angled, nar- 

 rowed above ; the disco-cubital nervure broken by a minute stump ; 

 the transverse median nervure is received distinctly beyond the trans- 

 verse basal. Legs of moderate length ; the apices of the tarsal joints 

 spinose. The known species is black, largely marked with yellow, the 

 legs rufous. The second to fifth abdominal segments project at the 

 apices laterally. 



Belongs to the Joppini, and is not unlike Coilojoppa in form 

 and coloration, but may be known from it by the flatter, not 

 keeled scutellum, and by the much larger areola of equal width 

 throughout. The latter is larger than usual.
