706 M. W. R. df V. GRAHAM 



? Germany. 

 Biology. Unknown. 



Spaniopus amoenus Forster 



Spaniopus amoenus Forster, 1856 : 56, <$. 



Type material (? Germany) presumably in Naturhistorisches Museum, Vienna. 



The male of amoenus was briefly described as having the antennae yellow with 

 the fifth and sixth funicular segments, and the clava, black. Dr. Boucek has 

 some males which agree with this description and are probably the true amoenus. 

 The female has not been described. 



? Germany ; Czechoslovakia. 



Biology. Unknown. Dr. Boucek tells me that he finds it to be associated with 

 xerothermic habitats. 



Spaniopus monospilus (Thomson) 



Polycelis monospila Thomson, 1878 : 145, g, ?$. 

 ? Polyscelis Websteri Ashmead, 1894a : 52-53, o* $. 

 Spaniopus monospilus (Thomson) Graham, 19566 : 251. 



Type material. Polycelis monospila Thomson. Syntypes, 18 specimens. LEC- 

 TOTYPE, a male labelled " KK " [Kinnekulle] . It is not certain whether the 

 females in Thomson's series are conspecific with the male lectotype. 



Polyscelis websteri Ashmead. Types, U.S.A., Indiana, Lafayette, in U.S.N.M. 

 (not seen by the writer). In his key to the North American species of Polyscelis, 

 Gahan (1922 : 10-11) mentioned some characters of the male of P. websteri which 

 suggest that it must be very near to, if not identical with, Spaniopus monospilus 

 (Thomson). Thus he stated that in male websteri the funicular segments of the 

 antenna are alternatively white and dark brown ; whilst the third and fifth segments 

 are subquadrate, narrower and much shorter than the other segments. Also he 

 stated that the mid tibiae are strongly compressed and expanded between the 

 middle and the apex. 



Sweden ; ? U.S.A. 



Biology. Unknown. The species may be associated like polyspilus, with 

 Phragmiteta. 



Spaniopus polyspilus Graham 



(Text-figs. 575, 577) 



Polycelis conspersa (Walker) sensu Thomson, 1878 : 143, $ [nee Pteromalus conspersus Walker, 



1835]- 

 Spaniopus polyspilus Graham, 19566 : 251, $ [n. n. for conspersa Thomson nee Walker]. 

 ? Gyrinophagus peisonis Erdos, 1957 : 64, 6* ?•
