This genus was erected by Kieffer for a species from amber 

 designated by Aleunier as Miastor dii succin. It is separated from 

 Miastor by the quadriarticulate palpi. No American forms are 

 known.

This genus was erected for an amber species, characterized by 

 having 3 simple long veins, the tarsi quadriarticulate, the metatar- 

 sus being more than twice the length of the second segment, which 

 latter is longer than the third and fourth combined. The antennae 

 are composed of 13 cylindric segments, the thirteenth being plainly 

 produced. The body is elongate, ovoid, the thorax sHghtly gibbous ; 

 palpi apparently composed of only 3 segments and the one lobe of 

 the ovipositor plainly evident.

Members of this genus have the wing membrane finely haired, 

 the 3 long veins simple, the metatarsus quadriarticulate, the first 

 segment being longer than, the second. Palpi biarticulate. The 

 generic type is i\I. m e t r a 1 o a s Mein. The genus is probably 

 worldwide or nearly so in its distribution.
