fourth of the transverse discoidal nervure, which is 

 distinctly angled where it is received. Parapsidal 

 furrows distinct, wide, widened towards the apex. 

 Temples wide, rounded. Face flat. Abdomen as long 

 as the head and thorax united; sessile, slightly wider 

 than the thorax. Antennal scape 3 times longer than 

 wide, narrowed at the base, the apex below projec- 

 ting into teeth. Hind femora short, stout, about 

 half the length of the tibiae. Calcaria short, not one 

 fourth of the length of the metatarsus. Parastigma 

 and stigma thick, the radius issuing from behhid the 

 middle. 



May be known from Iphiaulax by the distinct, 

 clearly separated tooth on the outer side of the an- 

 tennae, and by the keeled front. 



Cynodobraeon carinifi'ons, sp. n. 



Black, the head except the vertex and the sides 

 of the front, the prostemum, the front coxae, femora, 

 trochanters, the tibiae, except behind, and the middle 

 knees broadly red. Mandibles red, their apex black, 

 the palpi of a paler red ; wings hj^ahne, sUghtly tinged 

 with fuscous, the nervures and front of stigma black, 

 the stigma posteriorily fuscous. Basal 3 segments 

 of the abdomen strongly, sharply, closely longitu- 

 dinally striated, the furrows more strongly than the 

 rest of the segments; the 4th segment fiuely, closely 

 transversely striated; the central area on 2nd seg- 

 ment smooth, shining, longer than mde, rounded at 

 the base, gradually narrowed to a fine point at the 

 apex, this point margined laterally . not extending 

 to the middle of the segment. Suturiform articu- 

 lation deep, not very -ndde, straight, testaceous; 

 there is a crenulated furrow on the apex of the 3rd 

 segment and one on the apex and base of the 4th; 

 there are curved lateral crenulated furrows on the 

 sides of the 3rd and 4th segments. The raised middle 

 and the outer side of the 1st segment are bordered 

 by crenulated furrows. ?. 



Length 7 mm, terebra 7 mm. 



Antennae a httle longer than the body, 37-jointed, 



not tapering towards the apex, bare. Legs densely 



covered mth short white pubescence, the calcaria 



yellowish. Ventral surface white with black marks. 



Adesha, gen. nov. 



Metanotum \rith a distinct keel do^iii the centre. 

 Abdomen sessue, the basal segment wider than long, 

 keeled down the centre; the 5th segment — the 

 apical — with the apex broadly rounded, the apex 

 itself depressed or furrowed behind, the sides sHghtly 

 romidly incised; the segments are clearly separated, 

 but not furrowed; they are closely punctured, more 

 or less striated. Mesonotum distinctly trilobate, the 

 lobes of almost equal size, the basal only reaching 

 to the middle; it is united to the apex by a distinctly 

 defined furrow of its own length. The radius issues 

 from the middle of the stigma and extends to the 

 middle; there are 3 cubital cellules; the 2nd smaU, 

 shghtly narrowed towards the apex ; the basal abscissa 

 of radius not much shorter than the 2nd, the 3rd 

 three times the length of the basal 2 united; the 

 transverse median nervure almost interstitial ; the 

 récurrent nervure received in the apex of the 1st 

 cubital cellule, clearly distant from the transverse 



cubital. Anal nervure interstitial with the prae- 

 brachial i. e. issuing from the top of the anal ceUule. 



Podiscoidal cellule shorter than the praediscoidal, 

 its apex broadly rounded below, received in front 

 of the recurrent nervure. The spurs short. Basal 

 joint of the hind tarsi as long as the following 2 uni- 

 ted. Antennae more than twice the length of the 

 body, closely pilose; the 3rd joint a httle shorter 

 than the 4th. 



A genus of Braconinae readily known by the 

 broad, rounded apex of the abdomen and by the anal 

 nervure issuing from the top, instead of from the 

 bottom, of the anal ceUule. The form of the abdomen 

 is as m Ettryphrymnus, but that belongs to a different 

 group, e. g. the head is margined behind. 

 Adesha albolineata, sp. n. 



Pallid testaceous, the antemiae, the top of occiput ; 

 the front and vertex broadlj^ the mark on the front 

 more widely and obUquely narrowed than that on the 

 vertex, the top of thd thorax, the black on the metano- 

 tum wider, extending on to the pleurae, aiid the 

 back of the abdomen, more widelj' on the 1st, more, 

 narrowly on the 5th segment, black. Wings hyahne, the 

 nervures and stigma black $. 



Length 4 mm terebra % i^'^- 



Shining, pilose, the hair on the face and metano- 

 tum longer and \\hite. Metanotum with some stout, 

 irregular oblique striae bordering the central keel. 

 Basal 2 abdominal segments irregularly closely reti- 

 culated, the others longitudinally closely punctured, 

 the jDunctures on the 2nd and 3rd stronger and in- 

 termixing, to be continued. 



Mitteilung. 



Unserem Mitarbeiter, Herrn Felix Bryk, der den 

 ganzen Juli über auf Gotland sammelte, ist es ge- 

 lungen, den von Linné im Jahre 1741 entdeckten 

 und seit damals in Vergesseiüieit geratenen ,, typi- 

 schen Waldapollo von T h o r s b u r g e n" wieder 

 aufzufinden. Dieses seltene Tier repräsentiert eine 

 ausgezeichnete Rasse, die Herr Bryk in unserer Zeit- 

 schrift zu beschreiben bereits zugesagt hat.
