ICHNEUMOKID.E. — ICHNEUMON. 187 



margins of the collar, a streak below the wings, two longitudinal abbre- 

 viated ones on the disc before the scutellutn, and the lateral margins of the 

 last yellowish-white ; metathorax glossy blue ; abdomen punctured, blue- 

 black, with a minute white dot on each of the apical angles of the 1st segment; 

 legs black, 4 anterior femora at the extreme tip, and the anterior tibiae in 

 front pale whitish red ; wings smoky-hyaline, with a black stigma. 

 This fine and conspicuous species was found in Yorkshire: I 

 obtained it from Haworth's collection.

 Black : male with the mouth, face, and orbits white, with a black spot on the 

 face and clypeus : female with the inner orbits and a vestige of the outer 

 ones also white ; mandibles with a chestnut spot ; antennse with the basal 

 joint white beneath in the male, and the 9th to 14th of that colour above in 

 the female ; thorax with a streak before, and dot beneath the wings, and 

 the scutellum white ; abdomen with 2 minute white dots on the basal seg- 

 ment, and occasionally on the second ; legs black ; hinder tibise with a broad 

 white ring towards the base. 



I believe this species has been taken in England : it is so doubt- 

 fully indicated in Curtis's Guide.

Black: palpi pitchy; inner orbits and a lateral spot on the clypeus white; 

 thorax with the upper ridge of the neck, a line before, and dot beneath, with 

 a streak below the scutellum, and the last, white ; abdomen blackish, with 

 the margin of the basal segment, or two dots thereon, white ; legs black, 

 anterior pale ferruginous beneath, tibiae white within, posterior fuscous at 

 the apex ; wings smoky -hyaline. 



I suspect Ic. bipunctorius, described in p. 154, to be a variety of this species. 

 Found, but not commonly, near London, in June ; also in the 



New Forest. 



§ VIII. Scutellum pale : abdomen either entirely red, or red and black.
