120 Mr. P. Cameron on new Hymenoptera. 
the furrow is wider and deeper; its apical lobes are more 
widely separated and the tarsi are more slenderly built. 
Head covered with golden pubescence ; the front and vertex 
closely punctured; the furrow above the antenne is wide 
and deep; the clypeus is sparsely punctured below the middle. 
Mandibles and palpi black, the latter thickly covered with 
white hairs. Mesonotum alutaceous, as is also the scutellum ; 
the postscutellum is more distinctly punctured. Median 
segment irregularly, closely, transversely striated ; the apex 
has the apical three fourths furrowed down the middle. 
Mesopleuree closely and finely punctured. The metasternal 
process is large, keeled in the middle at the base; the rest 
furrowed, the furrow deepest at the base and apex ; the latter 
is triangular in the middle. Legs black, pruinose, the tibial 
and tarsal spines rufous; the calcaria and spurs black. 
Wings yellowish, lighter coloured in the middle of the 
cellules; the apex darker; the stigma and nervures yellow; 
the first cubital cellule at the top is more than half the length 
of the second ; the first transverse cubital nervure is obliquely 
sloped at top and bottom; the recurrent nervures united 
shortly before reaching the cubital nervure. The basal four 
segments of the abdomen are thickly covered with golden 
pubescence. ‘The stiff pile on the pygidium is rufous at the 
edges. 
This is a smaller species than C. appendiculata; the 
recurrent nervures are not so distinctly appendiculated above ; 
the first cubital cellule at the top is longer compared with the 
second, being more than half its length, and the first trans- 
verse cubital nervure is straighter and more distinctly angled 
above. 
Chrysolarra japonica, sp. n. 
Long. 16 mm. 
Hab. Japan (George Lewis). 
This is a smaller species than C. appendiculata or C. aureo- 
sericea, and differs from them in the recurrent nervures not 
being appendiculated, although they touch each other at the 
cubital nervure. 
The lower part of the front, the cheeks, and oral region 
densely covered with bright golden pubescence ; the front 
and vertex alutaceous, sparsely covered with bright golden 
pubescence ; the ocellus is triangularly produced in front. 
Pro- and mesothorax covered with deep rufo-fulvous pubes- 
cence, most thickly on the mesonotum ; the pubescence on the 
median segment is paler, more fulvous in tint. Median
