The last three genera are separated also by good characters 
of the venation, for which see the tables of Ashmead and 
Cresson. Ashmead cites no type for his new genus Hmpho- 
ropsis, but in a letter he informs me that it is Habropoda 
floridana, Smith. The known species of Lmphoropsis aro 
E. floridanus (Habropoda floridana, Sm.), &. miserabihs 
(H. miserabilis, Cress.), BE. Morrisoni (H. Morrison, Cress.), 
and E. salviarum (H. salviarum, Ckll.). 
Emphoropsis differs trom Habropoda by the relatively long 
first joint of maxillary palpi and the second not so long as 4 
to 6 united ; there are also other important differences, duly 
indicated by Ashmead.
