[Sor HYMENOPTERA FROM SARAWAK, 
longer than the preceding. The front is raised in the middle ; 
the raised part has oblique sides. Parapsidal furrows obsolete. 
scutellum roundly convex, distinctly raised above the mesono- 
tum ; its sides are not maryined. ‘The transverse furrows on 
segments 2 to 5 of the abdomen are distinct and smooth. There 
is a black mark on the apex of the hinder coxe above; the 
hinder coxe are broadly lined with black above on both sides 
and below; the hinder tibize are black at the base; the hinder 
tarsi black. The black line on the metanotum has the basal 
half dilated. 
Comes near to E. ornatipes, Cam., which may be known by 
the punctured thorax and abdomen, etc. 
Trichiothecus, gen. nov. 
Wings uniformly dark fuscous; the areolet oblique, the 
apical abscissa twice the length of the basal, shortly, but dis- 
tinctly appendiculated; the recurrent nervure is received near 
the apex. Clypeus not separated from the face; its apex depress- 
ed and roundly emarginated. Transverse median nervure in 
hind wings broken shortly below the middle. Abdominal seg- 
ments closely rugosely punctured ; sezments 2 to 5 with rounded 
furrows at base and apex. Claws large, simple. Metathorax 
smooth without keels. 
Hyes large, the malar space moderate ; the temples are also 
~ moderate and are obliquely narrowed ; the occiput roundly in- 
cised, above obliquely narrowed. Antenne moderately stout, 
as long as the abdomen; its last joint is distinctly shorter than ~ 
the preceding two united. Eyes entire, diverging very slightly © 
above. Metatarsus nearly as long as the other joints united. 
Ovipositor long. 
A genus easily known by the incised apex of clypeus, by the 
black wings with the appendiculated irregular areolet and by 
the peculiar colouration. It comes near to Erythropimpla, Ashm., 
and Charitopimpla, Cam. ‘the latter may be known from it by — 
the clypeus being separated from the face by a transverse fur- 
row, by the areolet being small, triangular, not appendiculat- 
ed or oblique, by the hyaline wings, and the abdominal segments 
are wider than long, not longerthan wide. There are two bulle 
on the 2nd transverse cubital and two on the recurrent nervure.
