new Genera of Ichneumonide. 525 
scutellum, postscutellum, a large mark on the metapleurve 
behind the spiracles and reaching to and enclosing the spines, 
the tubercles, and a square mark (smaller than the one on the 
metapleure) on the base of the mesopleure on the lower side, 
yellow; the apex of the propleure closely longitudinally 
striated in the middle; the metanotum closely rugosely punc- 
tured; the sides on the apical slope stoutly irregularly reticu- 
lated; the supramedian area is large, wider than long; the 
sides at the base rounded, the apex transverse; the base of 
the posterior median area is closely reticulated, the apex more 
strongly, irregularly, transversely striated. Legs rufous; 
the coxe and trochanters black; the knees are black and the 
tarsi also, except the anterior at the base; the anterior femora 
and tibie are tinged with yellow in front; the calcaria dark 
rufous. Wings hyaline, their basal half with a distinct 
fulvous tinge; the stigma and nervures testaceous; the areolet 
5-angled, at the top it is one third the length of the bottom ; 
the recurrent nervure is received shortly beyond the middle. 
Abdomen black, the apex of the petiole and a large mark on 
the sides of all the segments at the apex yellow; petiole 
smooth and shining, except a shagreened space on the base 
of the postpetiole ; the second and third segments are minutely 
and closely punctured; the basal slope of the gastrocceli bears 
stout curved strie. 
FILEANTA, gen. nov. 
Mandibles without teeth, becoming gradually narrowed to 
the apex, which is rounded. Clypeus not separated by a 
suture from the face, which is flat; the apex of the clypeus 
transverse, foveate at the sides above. Occiput sharply 
margined. Scutellum roundly convex, not carinate. Median 
segment completely areolated. Spiracles linear, Abdomen 
bluntly rounded at the apex, the ventral keel extending to the 
apex of the fourth segment; there are seven segments. Legs, 
and especially the posterior, long, the tarsi spinose. Wings 
as in Ichneumon. Antenne long, serrate towards the apex. 
Labrum hidden. Grastrocceli shallow. Head largely deve- 
loped behind the eyes and sharply and obliquely narrowed 
there. 
The legs, and especially the hinder pair, are longer than 
usual; the apex of the hinder femora reaches to the end of 
the third segment ; the claws are long. ‘The postscutellum is 
not depressed laterally at the base. 
I unfortunately only know the male of this genus. In the 
mandibles having no teeth it agrees with the Heresiarchini.
