NO. 1202. GENERA OF THE ENCYRTINJE—ASHMEAB. 335 



distinctly thickened, broader than the fnnicle; frons 



hroad; eyes faintly hairy (30) Berecyntus Howard. 



Pedicel not three times as long as thick; cheeks the length of eyes or 

 nearly; antennte rather long, the fnnicle joints rarely 

 more than twice as long as thick, gradually thickening 

 apically, the sixth joint, however, never much longer 

 than wide, sometimes wider than long. 



(31) Copidosoma Eatzeburg. 



3. Cheeks more than half the length of the eyes; pedicel scarcely twice as loujr as 



thick, the flagellum not long, the joints of the funicle all 

 small except the first, not longer than wide, submonilie 

 form, gradually increasing in size. 



(32) Prionomitus Mayr. 

 Cheeks very short, almost obsolete; pedicel three tioies as long as thick, the 

 flagellum very short, clavate, the joints of the funicle 

 annular, wider than long, the club greatly enlarged, 

 longer than the funicle ; mesonotum short, twice as wide 

 as long, the pi'onotum not visible from above; frons very 

 narrow, the lateral ocelli close to eye margin, the eyes 

 large, rounded, pubescent (33) Archintis Howard. 



4. Mesonotum smooth, impunctate, blue or metallic; pedicel about thrice as long 



as thick, the flagellum long, the joints of funicle much 

 longer than thick, the club somewhat stouter than the 

 funicle; eyes pubescent; scntellum, but not the axiilte, 



shagreened (34) Parencyrtiis Ashmead, new genus. 



Mesonotum feebly sparsely punctate, metallic blue -green ; pedicel not twice as 

 long as thick, the flagellum long and slender, joints 4-5 

 twice longer than thick, cylindrical, the club 3-jointed, 

 not thicker than the funicle; eyes large, glabrous; scu- 

 tellum as well as the axilhe sculptured. 



(53) Cerchysius Westwood (part). 



5. Abdomen with the dorsum flat or concave, not rigidly pubescent 6 



Abdomen globose or snbovate, much shorter than the thorax, compressed, 



clothed with a rigid white pubescence, the second seg- 

 ment usually large, smooth medially: species sometimes 

 apterous. 

 Pronotum large, conical, longer than the mesonotum; antenna? Avith the 

 scape and flagellum strongly compressed, broad, leaf-like; 

 abdomen globose. 



(35) Mira SGhellenheTg^^Encyrtus Latreille (part)=Xo)/- 



chocerus 'Dsih]hom=^Euryscainis Forsier^DicellocerKs 



Meugel. 



Pronotum not large ; antennte simple, the flagellum usually long, subclavate, 



not broad, compressed. 



Head above rounded, seen from in front much longer than wide; frons 



narrow ; scape long and slender ; scutellnm not longer than 



the mesonotum, coriaceous; abdomen ovate, as long as the 



thorax (36) Splueropisthus Thomson. 



Head, seen from in front, not longer than wide; frons broad, antennte not 

 long, inserted on a line with the base of the eyes, the 

 flagellum subclavate, the funicle joints, or at least 3-6, 

 wider than long; scutellnm large, longer than the meso- 

 notum; front wings in female with a substigmal cloud; 

 postmargiual and stigmal veins long, the latter nearly 

 parallel with costal margin ; abdomen shorter than the 

 thorax, compressed.
