PARASITIC WASPS OF BRACONID SUBFAMILY EUPHORINAE 27 
half width of wing; coxae polished; femora slightly thickened; calcaria of posterior 
tibia at least one-third as long as metatarsus. 
Abdomen abruptly petiolate, pyriform; first segment slender, parallel-sided, 
and slightly arched, nearly four times as long as broad, ventral margins of tergite 
nearly meeting, the dorsal surface covered with irregular more or less confluent 
punctures; remainder of abdomen polished; fused second and third tergites broad- 
ening strongly behind, the posterior margin broader than thorax; the following 
tergites short; ovipositor sheaths barely visible; ovipositor very short and some- 
what decurved. 
Piceous black; scape, pedicel, and basal two flagellar segments slightly paler 
than remainder of antenna; wings hyaline; stigma brown with a small transparent 
spot at base; legs piceous; abdominal petiole blackish; remainder of abdomen 
piceous. 
Type locality —Mountain View, Calif. 
Type.—United States National Museum no. 49914.

The Genus EUPHORIANA Gahan 
Euphoriana Gahan, U. 8. Natl. Mus. Proc. 46: 433, pl. 39, fig. 1, 1918. (Geno- 
type, Euphoriana uniformis Gahan.) 
This is very closely allied to Euphorus, particularly to forms like 
Euphorus maculipennis (Ashmead). It appears to differ only in the 
absence of the cubitus. Because of the otherwise striking similarity, 
and in view of the considerable variation in development of the veins 
in the middle part of the wing of Huphorus, it seems somewhat doubtful 
that Huphoriana can be maintained as a distinct group. In the 
absence of more completely intergrading forms, however, it has seemed 
best to retain the name for the present. 
Head large, nearly quadrate; lateral ocelli far in front of posterior declivity of 
head; cheeks and temples margined behind; occiput immargined; antennae short, 
inserted below level of middle of eyes; thorax much narrower than head; pronotum 
rather prominent; propodeum narrowing posteriorly, gradually declivous, not 
excavated behind; anterior wing with only radius, basal vein, nervulus, and sub- 
medius distinct; stigma broad; radial cell very short; first abscissa of radius punc- 
tiform; second abscissa curved; combined median and submedian cells glabrous; 
mediellan and submediellan cells complete; abdomen petiolate, more or less pyri- 
form; combined second and third tergites very long, not carinate laterally, over- 
lapping beneath, ovipositor subexserted, decurved. 
The genotype is the only known species. 
EUPHORIANA UNIFORMIS Gahan 
(Fig. 2, F) 
Euphoriana uniformis Gahan, U. 8. Natl. Mus. Proc. 46: 4338, 1913. 
Type.—Iin the United States National Museum. 
Length about 1.8 to 2.5 mm. Head smooth; frons longer than face; malar 
space shorter than basal width of mandible; eyes long oval; ocelli very small; 
ocellocular line one and one-half times as long as postocellar line; antennae not 
longer than head and thorax combined, composed of 15 or 16 segments, basal 
flagellar segment as long as scape, the following gradually shorter, and slightly 
thicker in the female; mesoscutum narrowed anteriorly, smooth, sometimes finely 
transversely sculptured posteriorly; notauli very faint; propodeum rugulose; 
anterior tarsi stout, the second, third, and fourth segments very short, the fifth 
much enlarged; radial cell about one-third as long as stigma; first abdominal 
tergite narrow, broadening only slightly apically, about three times as long as 
broad at apex, longitudinally rugulose striate, the spiracles at about the middle. 
Yellow ferruginous; apical half of antenna, and sometimes apex of abdomen, 
blackish; wings hyaline, sometimes faintly discolored in first discoidal cell and 
beyond the middle; stigma broad, broadly hyaline at base; legs yellow.
