surface, testaceous ; wings hyaline, the stigma and costa black, the nervures 
of a paler black; the areolet small, open at the apex, the transverse cubital 
nervure obliquely slope, the transverse median received shortly behind the 
transverse basal. Female. 
Length 8; terebra 1 m.m. 
Face shagreened, the clypeus, except on the apical slope, closely distinctly 
punctured. Front somewhat strongly, obliquely striated, the strie beginning 
at the hinder ocelli ; a strong keel runs down the middle from the ocelli, mesono- 
tum strongly shagreened, the apex in the middle strongly, irregularly longitudinal- 
ly striated, scutellum smooth, shining. The two basal parts of the metanotum 
longitudinally striated, the basal part more finely than the second ; in both the 
strie almost form reticulations, the apical slope is more strongly transversely 
striated ; the sides from the spiracles, are closely oblique, rather strongly striated, 
Legs pallid testaceous, the middle coxe and the femora behind fuscous ; the 
hind legs with the coxz pallid testaceous, a large dark mark, roundly incised at 
the base, on the outer and lowerside, the trochanters fuscous, the femora testa- 
ceous, broadly fuscous above, the tibie black, the apex with a white band as 
long as the hind spurs ; the tarsi white, the first joint narrowly at the base and 
the last dark rufous ; the four front legs white, the hinder black. The metanotal 
spines are large, longer than they are wide at the base and curved. 
Cryptanura ornatipennis, sp.n. 
Black, the thorax red, the prosternum black, the mandibles to the base 
of the teeth, palpi, a line on the upper inner orbits, dilated at the top of the front 
and extending to the hinder ocelli, a line round the base of the pronotum, tegule, 
tubercles, scutellum to the top of the apical slope, metanotal spines, broad bands 
on the apices of the basal three abdominal segments, a narrow one, not reach- 
ing to the outer edge, on the sixth and the whole of the seventh, white ; legs rufo- 
testaceous the hinder darker coloured, the four anterior coxee white, the basal 
joint of the four front trochanters black, the tarsi infuscated, the base of the 
middle tibiz with a white band on the base ; the hind cox and trochanters black, 
the former with a broad oblique band on the inner side above, the femora darker 
coloured below and black at the apex, the tibie and tarsi black, the former with a 
white ring, nearly as long as the long spur of the hinder calcaria ; the tibia closely 
spinose. Wings hyaline, the stigma and nervures black, a fuscous triangular 
cloud on the outer side of the transverse basal and transverse median nervures 
and a wider one at the apex, commencing shortly behind the middle of the 
apical abscissa of the radius ; areolet open at the apex, narrower there than at 
the base, receiving the recurrent nervure at an angle in the middle. Female. 
Length 7 m.m. ; ovipositor 2 m.m. 
Face thickly covered with white pubescence, finely striated in the middle 
above ; the clypeus weakly sparsely punctured, its apex rufo-testaceous. The 
part at and below the ocelli weakly, irregularly obliquely striated. Mesonotum 
finely, closely punctured, the scutellum smooth. The metanotum round the basal 
slope finely punctured, the rest obliquely striated, the outer part with the striae
