HYMENOPTERA FROM SARAWAK. | eH 
Antenne longer than the body, densely covered with a 
fuscous pile. Parapsidal furrows deep; the middle lobe of the 
“mesonotum raised and clearly separated. Propleurz depressed 
and punctured inthe centre. Mesopleural furrow, curved, deep, 
lightly widened and rounded at the apex; it occupies the cen- 
tral part of the pleure. The striation on the abdomen is 
strongest on the 2nd segment, whose sides are tuberculate near 
the base. The sheaths of the ovipositor are black and short. 
Alalyce@a, gen. nov. 
Antenne longer than the body, filiform, The joints of the 
flagellum not clearly separated. Head cubital, rounded in front 
_ transverse behind, the occiput margined; the malar space large 
almost as long as the length of theeyes. Palpi long and filiform. 
Mesonotum flat; the middle lobe separated, broadly furrowed 
down the middle; between its apex and the base of the scutel- 
lum is a broad, shallow depression, which is irregularly longitudin- 
laly striated. Scutellum flat throughout. Median segment 
closely reticulated, lony, flat above and with a short apical slope. 
Legs long; the front tarsi more than twice the length of their 
tibiz. Wings with 3 cubital cellules: the 2nd longer than the 1st 
and shorter than the 3rd. In the hind wings the pobrachial trans- 
verse nervure is interstitial with the preebrachial. The costal 
areolet is much longer than the radial; the pobrachial nervure 
is obsolete. The transyerse median nervure in the fore wings 
is not interstitial being received shortly beyond the transverse 
basal. Abdominal petiole long, longer than the 2nd and 3rd 
segments united ; it is of uniform thickness throughout and is 
nearly as wide as the 2nd segment. The 2nd segment bears 2 
- narrow furrows which extend from the base to the apex; the. 
suturiform articulation especially at the sides, and is slightly 
curved. The ovipositor is long. The anal nervure in the hind 
wings is interstitial. The hinder coxe are not produced in front. 
This genus does not fit very well into any of the tribes of 
_ the Cyclostomi but may, for the present, be referred to the 
Doryctides. Its characteristic features are the long filiform 
antenne, margined occiput, flat scutellum, depressed mesono- 
tum, longish reticulated median segment, long petiole of equal
