elongate. The costa not produced beyond the tip of radial sector; radial sector sinuous; petiole of the 
media very long; cubitus forks distad of the distal end of the basal cell R; abdomen slender and extra- 
ordinarily elongated. Legs very long; coxae strong; femora and tibise long, the tarsi twice as long as the 
tibiae ; fore metatarsi as long as the following joints taken together, yiale genitalia very robust, the 
forceps with rectangular and elongated basal joint, apical joint of the same form but only half as long. 
The author further states that the crossvein (nervule transversale) is suddenly interrupted beyond the 
apex of the basal cell R, but it appears that he meant subcostal vein (nervule assistante) which seems 
more reasonable (PI. 4, Fig. 28).

Characters. — Head small, round, somewhat narrower than the thorax, flattened in front, 
placed low upon the thorax ; proboscis somewhat projecting ; eyes oval, sowewhat emarginate at the 
base of the antennae; ocelli three in number, the middle one only little smaller than the laterals, placed 
in a transverse line on the broad front; palpi cylindrical, incurved, four jointed, the first joint very 
small, the third about one and one-half, the fourth twice as long as the second; antennae arcuate, pro- 
jecting forward, in the male about one and one-half, in the female as long as head and thorax taken 
together, 2-I-14 jointed, the two basal joints cupuliform, the flagellar joints cylindrical, somewhat 
compressed, pubescent. Thorax short, moderately broad, very highly arched ; metanotum highly arched, 
Scutellum small. Abdomen long and slender, seven segmented, slightly compressed, the male with 
short forceps, the female with very short ovipositor, with a pair of small lamella;\ Wings elongate oval, 
with rounded base, as long as the abdomen, microscopically setulose. Costa produced beyond the tip of 
the radial sector, but not reaching the tip of the wing; subcosta ends slighth' before the middle of the 
wing length and connected with the radius by Sca (subcostal crossvein); the radial sector strongly undu- 
late, its basal section as long as the R-M crossvein; anterior branch of tlie media disconnected at the 
base; the fork of the cubitus slightly distad of the crossvein; anal vein strong but incomplete (PI. 4-, 
Fig. 29). Legs long and slender, the tibiae with spurs and with vei}- small lateral setae.

Judging from the diagnosis ol the genus given by Rondani it seems quite possible that he also 
included the species classed under Genus 12, Rondaniella [Leia of Winnertz).
