214 v - CAMERON. HYMENOPTERA. 



hyaline, the stigma and nervures black, the basai abscissa of the radius testaceous; there is 

 only one horny point, its base projects towards the radius and is about 3 times longer than 

 wide, the top is round; from its posterior end runs a narrow line, longer and slightly thinner 

 than it, it projects slightly backwards and is narrowed towards the apex in front ; both form 

 a broadly rounded curve. Metanotum coarsely irregularly reticulated. Head and thorax covered 

 with a dense white pile; the apical abdominal segments and the legs are covered with white 

 pubescence. Ç. 



Length 24 m. m. 



There are some strong oblique striae on the middle of the propleurae ; the mesopleurae 

 are closely longitudinally striated from near the top, the striae becoming stronger from above ; 

 the metapleurae are more widely reticulated than the metanotum.

 Bivak Island, January. 



An example is perhaps this New Guinea species — at least it agrées with Smith's 

 short description. It is an Enicospilus with one triangular horny point. The head is for the 

 greater part pallid yellow; the scape of the antennae is rufous, the flagellum black, brownish 

 towards the apex. Ail the nervures are black, except the thickened basai part of the radius 

 and the disco-cubital nervure which are testaceous. The base of the 3^ abdominal segment 

 is rufo-testaceous, the rest of it and the following segments black. The top of the metanotum 

 behind the keel is longitudinally striated, the striae more widely separated and stouter than 

 the others; the striae at their side are oblique, the others transverse. 



3. Enicospihis novae-guineae sp. n. 



Bivak Island, January. 



Rufo-testaceous, the eye orbits broadly pallid yellow, as is also the clypeus; the flagellum 

 of the antennae and the apical 3 segments of the abdomen black, the 4H1 segment largely 

 infuscated ; wings hyaline, the thickened basai part of the radius dark testaceous; there are 2 

 horny points, the basai one large, longish triangular, the narrowed end above, rounded, the 

 apical part bluntly roundly curved, the apical much smaller and paler, rounded above, irregular 

 below, twice longer than wide. The base of the metanotum has 4 stout, clearly separated 

 striae in the centre, the sides irregularly reticulated, the rest strongly transversely striated. 

 Except above and at the base the propleurae are closely, finely obliquely striated ; the meso- 

 pleurae are more finely and closely striated ; the metapleurae are closely, more strongly 

 obliquely striated. Ç. 



Length 21 m. m. 



4. Enicospilus albobaltcatus sp. n. 



Lorentz River, September. 



Black, the head pale yellow, the basai 2 abdominal segments bright ferruginous, the 

 3 1 'd segment white, except for a triangular black spot at the base above, the 3rd segment
