tooth-bearing area is 4-angled, and is narrowed on the inner side. 
Would come into Krieger’s section G, if it were not for 
the black mark on the occiput. 
AXanthopimpla nigritarsis, Sp. NOV. 
Yellow, a triangular mark enclosing the ocelli, a broad 
band on the mesonotum, trilobate at the apex, between the base 
of the tegule and the base of the mesonotum; its apex and the 
scutellum on the lower part of the basal slope, a line of almost 
equal width throughout on the base of the metanotum; a large 
mark on the Ist and apical two segments and two large broad 
marks on the others, black. A line on the under side of the hinder 
femora, their apex narrowly, the base of the hinder tibie and 
the four hinder tarsi, black. Wings hyaline, their apex slightly 
infuscated, the stigma and nervures black. 6.

Face and base of clypeus closely, but not strongly, punc- 
tured. The 38 lobes of the black line on the mesonotum are 
rounded. The parapsidal furrows are deep at the base and 
extend near to the middle. The scutellar keels are narrow, | 
leaf-like and become narrowed towards the apex. ‘The areola. 
is large, 6-angled ; the base obliquely narrowed, the apex trans- 
verse; the tooth-bearing area is 4-angled, transverse of equal 
width and is not much smaller than the area at its base. The 
basal abdominal segment smooth, its keels stout; the other seg- 
ments are closely and distinctly punctured, with their furrows 
striated. The black mark on the 1st segment is large, incised 
at the base and apex in the centre; the basal incision is small, 
the apical larger and wider and with oblique sides. The ten in- 
termediate marks are large and wider than long; the 1st and 
last pair are smaller than the others. 
Belongs to Krieger’s section G. /. c. p. 92.
