ON WALKER'S JAPANESE ICHNEUMONIDjE. ' 133 



nearly half abdominal length, with valvule apicaliy explanate ; 

 length, 8 mm. One specimen. 



7. C. maculipes (p. 304, $ ; cf. Smith, Trans. Ent. Soc. 

 1874, p. 393, ? ). — " The male is described by Mr. Smith," says 

 Walker; but Smith described the female only, and the latter's 

 type in the British Museum belongs to that sex, and is, more- 

 over, generically distinct from either of Walker's females, which 

 are certainly not co-specific ! a is apparently a female Tricho- 

 cryptus, though the metanotal areola is obsolete ; it is black, 

 with its face (nearly concealed by the card) entirely whitish, as 

 are the anus and flagellar band ; the front legs may be partly 

 pale ; terebra nearly half abdominal length ; notauli obsolete ; 

 areolet weak and subquadrate ; length, 6 mm. /3 is much 

 stouter, though similarly white-marked, but with the face en- 

 tirely black ; length, 8 mm. ; it is probably a Cratocryptus, but 

 is too greasy to allow of an adequate examination. Two speci- 

 mens, both with small and circular metathoracic spiracles. 



8. Mesostenus laticinctus (p. 304, <?). — Exolytus Icevigatus, 

 Grav., <? . The " Var. B. Hind femora black, except at the 

 base " is another male of this variable species. Four specimens. 



9. Glypta albicoxa (p. 304, ? ). — So far from being "nearly 

 allied to G. ceratitis " (sic), this is a typical specimen of Clisto- 

 pyga incitator, Fab., female, with pale hind coxae, determinately 

 white-banded hind tibial, and terebra (probably broken) unusually 

 short; length, nearly 6 mm. One specimen. 



10. Lissonota semistriata (p. 305, 2 ). — One of the Agathid 

 Braconidse, extremely closely allied to, if not synonymous with, 

 Earinus gloriatorius, Panz., female, with the Kev. T. A. Mar- 

 shall's account of which it agrees in every way except in its very 

 great size of 6 mm., with the terebra slightly longer than whole 

 body. One specimen. 



11. Macrus apicifer (p. 305, 2 ). — A typical Syzeuctus, with 

 elongate metathoracic spiracles ; black, with the legs, except 

 hind coxae and base of their trochanters, pale ; four basal abdo- 

 minal segments red, with their apices, apical declivity of meta- 

 thorax, and (apparently) scutellum flavidous ; metapleurse with 

 no carinse ; cubital cell apically infumate ; areolet minute and 

 not as long as its petiole ; terebra 7, and body, 10 mm. in 

 length. It is none of the known Indian species of Lissonotime. 

 One specimen. 



12. Ecthrus atrator (p. 306, ? ). — A remarkable black 

 Cryptid with only the nagelluni partly and anus discally white ; 

 areolet pentagonal ; abdomen petiolate, terebra as long as the 

 abdomen ; it has the facies of Pristomerus, though with no 

 femoral tooth. Head very finely shagreened, discally subquad- 

 rate, with buccate cheeks ; prominent and internally parallel 

 eyes ; antennae fractal, with flagellum partly pure white ; notauli
