  CAMERON, 
  Hymenoptcra 
  Orientalia. 
  

  

  This 
  genus 
  comes 
  near 
  to 
  Doryctes, 
  with 
  which 
  it 
  

   agrees 
  in 
  some 
  respects 
  ; 
  but 
  may 
  readily 
  be 
  known 
  from 
  

   it 
  by 
  the 
  transverse 
  probrachial 
  nervure 
  being 
  interstitial 
  

   and 
  consequently 
  the 
  praebrachial 
  and 
  the 
  probrachial 
  

   areolets 
  equal 
  in 
  length, 
  and 
  by 
  the 
  probrachial 
  areolet 
  

   in 
  the 
  hind 
  wings 
  being 
  divided 
  into 
  two 
  by 
  a 
  transverse 
  

   nervure. 
  In 
  Doryctes 
  there 
  are 
  only 
  five 
  areae 
  on 
  the 
  

   metanotum, 
  instead 
  of 
  ten 
  as 
  in 
  our 
  genus. 
  Characteristic 
  

   is 
  the 
  curved 
  apex 
  of 
  the 
  radius 
  and 
  of 
  the 
  base 
  of 
  the 
  

   cubital 
  nervure.

  Antennas 
  black; 
  the 
  flagellum 
  densely 
  covered 
  with 
  

   short 
  stiff 
  pubescence 
  ; 
  the 
  scape 
  shining, 
  sparsely 
  haired. 
  

   Head 
  shining 
  ; 
  below 
  the 
  eyes 
  is 
  a 
  large, 
  dirty-testaceous 
  

   mark 
  ; 
  front 
  and 
  vertex 
  sparsely 
  pilose 
  ; 
  impunctate 
  ; 
  the 
  

   space 
  over 
  the 
  antennae 
  is 
  minutely, 
  irregularly 
  striated; 
  

   there 
  is 
  a 
  shallow, 
  small, 
  round 
  fovea 
  above 
  each 
  antenna 
  ; 
  

   the 
  face 
  is 
  strongly 
  aciculated, 
  especially 
  in 
  the 
  middle 
  ; 
  

   the 
  projecting 
  clypeus 
  is 
  more 
  strongly 
  punctured; 
  over 
  

   its 
  top 
  is 
  a 
  curved 
  furrow. 
  Mandibles 
  testaceous 
  ; 
  the 
  

   teeth 
  black; 
  the 
  palpi 
  white. 
  Mesonotum 
  opaque, 
  strongly 
  

   aciculated 
  ; 
  the 
  parapsidal 
  furrows 
  transversely 
  striated 
  ; 
  

   in 
  the 
  middle 
  of 
  the 
  central 
  lobe 
  is 
  a 
  shallow, 
  punctured, 
  

   longitudinal 
  furrow. 
  Scutellar 
  depression 
  large, 
  deep, 
  

   closely 
  punctured, 
  keeled 
  down 
  the 
  middle. 
  Scutellum 
  

   closely 
  punctured 
  ; 
  the 
  post-scutellum 
  depressed, 
  bordered 
  

   by 
  distinct 
  keels 
  laterally. 
  The 
  base 
  of 
  the 
  median 
  seg- 
  

   ment 
  is 
  smooth; 
  down 
  its 
  middle 
  runs 
  a 
  straight 
  keel; 
  

   on 
  the 
  sides, 
  inside 
  the 
  spiracles, 
  is 
  a 
  curved 
  keel, 
  the 
  curve 
  

   being 
  towards 
  the 
  centre;
