 malar space ; gaster short, 1 -6-1-8 times as long as broad, at most as long as 

 head plus thorax ; marginal vein of forewing 1 -8-2 times as long as the stigmal 

 vein ; temples in dorsal view of head (Text-fig. 668) about one third as long as 

 eyes. Male. Antennal scape in front view (Text-fig. 663) with a small 

 projecting lobe at its apex ; gaster with a testaceous subbasal spot 



lignicola sp. n. (p. 810) 

 Female. Eyes 1-5-1-85 times as long as broad, their posterior orbits some- 

 times shallowly emarginate ; breadth of oral fossa 2-1-2-5 times the malar 

 space ; gaster usually relatively longer ; marginal vein 1-75-2-9 times as 

 long as the stigmal vein ; temples in dorsal view of head (Text-figs. 669, 670) 

 tending to be less than one third as long as eyes. Male. Antennal scape in 

 front view (Text-fig. 664) without a distinct lobe at its apex ; gaster with or 

 without a pale spot .......... 9 



6 (5) Female. Fore wing with a large strongly infumate discal cloud ; marginal vein 



only about 1-75 times as long as the stigmal vein ; head about 1-3 times as

 Male. Not known to me . . . braconidis (Ferriere & Faure) (p. 814) 



Males and females. Female. Fore wing immaculate, or with at most a weak 

 infumate discal cloud, in the latter case (boavmiae) the marginal vein is 1-8-2-1 

 times as long as the stigmal vein, the head is rather less broad relative to the 

 mesoscutum, and the head and thorax are bronze or dark bluish . . 7 



7 (6) Female. Head (Text-fig.- 669) exactly or almost exactly twice as broad as its 



maximum length ; eyes 1-5-1-6 times as long as broad ; when the head is 

 seen in profile the posterior orbit of the eye is not or hardly emarginate ; disc 

 of fore wing often slightly suffused with yellowish or brownish, the stigma 

 (Text-fig. 671) tending to be slightly larger and more oblong than in cavus, 

 the postmarginal vein often slightly shorter than the stigmal vein. Male. 

 Gaster with a distinct testaceous subbasal spot . . boarmiae (Walker) (p. 812) 



Female. Head (Text-fig. 670) 1-85-1-9 times as broad as its maximum length ; 

 eyes 1-65-1-85 times as long as broad ; when the head is seen in profile the 

 posterior orbit of the eye appears shallowly emarginate in the middle ; fore 

 wing hyaline or whitish hyaline, the stigma (Text-fig. 294) usually small and 

 not distinctly oblong, the postmarginal vein usually as long as the stigmal vein. 

 Male. Gaster immaculate, or with at most a minute and indistinct pale 

 subbasal spot ....... cavus (Walker) (p. 810)
