almost subquadrate, the second about as long as the pedicel; face 

 above insertion of antennae very finely lineolated ; dorsum of pronotum 

 smooth, polished, the anterior truncation finely lineolated; median 

 lobe of mesonotum coarsely rugose, lateral lobes finely reticulated; 

 axillse smooth; scutellum more coarsely rugose than the mesoscutum, 

 propodeum twice as long as the metanotum, with a median carina 

 dividing anteriorly to form the usual medial lip; hind coxae black, 

 the front and middle ones deep brown; hind femora largely black, 

 rest of legs reddish testaceous; basal joint of hind tarsi about twice 

 as long as the second; longer spur of hind tibiae reaching slightly 

 beyond apex of second tarsal joint. 



Male. — Length about 1.75 mm. Similar to the female, the sculp- 

 ture of the face a little stronger. 



Type-locality.— Medan, Deli, Sumatra. 



Nine specimens, reared from an unknown lepidopterous larva by 

 Dr. L. P. de Bussy, after whom the species is named. 



Type.— C&t. No. 13871, U.S.N.M. 



The coarse sculpture of the scutellum distinguishes this species 

 from any other known from the Oriental region. 



EUPLECTRUS MEDANENSIS, new species. 



Female. — Length about 1.5 mm. Black, the clypeal area whitish, 

 abdomen brown, with a large basal testaceous spot; venter largely 

 testaceous; antennae brown, the scape and pedicel testaceous; first 

 joint of funicle slightly longer than the pedicel; following joints 

 slightly longer than wide, subequal, about as long as the pedicel; 

 face indistinctly lineolated; mesoscutum finely rugose, axillae and 

 scutellum finely reticulated with impressed lines; propodeum with 

 the usual median carina and anterior medial lip; legs including 

 coxae, testaceous; longer spur of hind tibiae reaching slightly be3^ond 

 apex of second tarsal joint; first joint of hind tarsi almost twice as 

 long as second. 



Male. — Length about 1.25 mm. Similar to the female; the an- 

 tennae entirely yellowish, the scape somewhat dilated in front; legs 

 yellowish. 



Habitat. — Medan, Deli, Sumatra. 



Type.—Q2,t. No. 13872, U.S.N.M. 



Many specimens reared by Doctor de Bussy from an unknown 

 lepidopterous host. 



This species is related to E.fukaii, Crawford, which, however, has 

 the first joint of the funicle fully one and one-half times as long as 

 the pedicel, the second joint of the hind tarsi almost as long as the 

 first, the sculpture of the mesoscutum much coarser and is larger and 

 more robust.
