Family ICHNEUMONIDAE i« 



Compiled by R. A. Cushman 



SUBFAMILY LYSIOGNATHINAE i^G 



Lysiognatha 



L. comstocki Ashm. Ithaca, SmHH (types-US, CU). 



SUBFAMILY JOPPINAE 



(Ichneumoninae auctt.) 



(So far as is known, the members of this subfamily are parasitic in the pupae of 

 Lepidoptera.) 



"^ The nomenclature and arrangement of this family, with the exception of the inclusion of 

 Lysiognathinae as a subfamily, have been entirely in the hands of Mr. Cushman, to whom, the 

 editors furnished such records, published and otherwise, as were available to them. 



1*" The editors are responsible for ranking the genus Lysiognatha as a subfamily of Ichneumonidae, 

 rather than as a separate family as placed in Mr. Cushman's manuscript. This was done to bring 

 it into conformity with the classification adopted for the order as a whole.
