•the teeth, f ulvo-testaceous ; palpi fuscous ; wings hyaline, the stigma and 

 nervures fuscous ; the base of the former broadly, its apex narrowly -white. £ . 



Length 4 mm. 



Quetta. 



Antennal scape black, suffused with testaceous ; the flagellum blackish, 

 paler below, densely covered with a short pile ; its first joint is not much 

 longer than the second. Metanotum closely transversely striated, the base 

 smooth and shining ; the smooth part triangularly dilated laterally. Pro- and 

 raetapleurfe shagreened ; the base of the former is testaceous below ; the 

 raesopleurae obscurely punctured below. The lower part of the 1st transverse 

 -cubital and the basal half of the 2nd abscissa of the cubitus are pale. 



BLACINiE. 



Orgilus nigromaculatus, sp. nov. 



Rufo-testaceous, antennae, ocelli, median segment except for a broad band 

 on the sides, narrowed behind, a large mark on the apex of the mesopleuras 

 in the centre, a mark in the middle of the 1st abdominal segment, the apex of 

 the 2nd and the greater part of the others, black. Anterior legs rufo-testace- 

 ous, their coxae black at the base j the middle black, the coxte, femora and 

 base of tibiae broadly dark red ; the posterior black, the base of the femora 

 and tibiae dark red ; the calcaria rufous. Wings clear hyaline, the costa and 

 stigma black ; the nervures white. 9. 



Length 4 mm ; terebra 2 mm. 



Quetta. May. 



Densely covered with a white pile ; minutely closely punctured. Antennao 

 29-jointed ; the third joint a little shorter than the 4th ; the flagellum densely 

 covered with a dense white pile. Malar space fully as long as the antennal 

 scape. Clypeus less closely punctured than the face and more shining; its 

 apex is broadly rounded. Scutellum broader than long, its apex broadly round- 

 ed. Metanotum sparsely irregularly striated, its base depressed. Pleura? close- 

 ly punctured; the lower part of the mesopleurae smooth and shining ; the 

 longitudinal furrow wide, crenulated. First abdominal segment sessile, slightly 

 widened towards the apex ; it is nearly as long as the 2nd and 3rd united ; 

 these are wider than long ; the 2nd longer than the 3rd ; it has a narrow smooth 

 line down the middle. Calcaria short. Stigma broad compared with its width 



The transverse median nervure is received beyond the transverse basal ; it 

 is therefore an Orgilus sensu str. 



BRACONINjE. 



Bracon queitcensis, sp. nov. 

 Rufo-testaceous, palpi, antennae, a large spot on the sides of mesonotum at 

 the scutellum at the base, base of metanotum broadly, mesosternum, a mark 

 at the base of the basal 2 abdominal segments and the sheaths of the ovipo- 

 sitor, black. Wings light fuscous, the stigma and costa testaceous, the nervures 

 •of a darker testaceous eolour. 9 and $ . 



Length 3 mm. the ovipjsitor slightly longer,
