triangular median tooth and two less distinct lateral ones. Antennae 
very long, the flagellar joints nearly equal after the first two which 
are slightly longer and snbequal, each being about four times as long 
as thick. Cheeks smooth and polished. Mesonotum smooth, with in- 
distinct arcuate parapsidal furrows anteriorly, posteriorly with a deep 
medially elongated fovea which is almost confluent by its posterior 
point with the deep transverse scutellar fovea; the latter fluted along 
its bottom. Metanotum about as wide as long, not areolated or 
carinated, but irregularly and finely rugose. Pleurae smooth and pol- 
ished, the mesopleura below with a polished depression. Abdomen as 
long as the head and thorax; first segment microscopically- roughened, 
the spiracular angles protuberant ; about twice as long as wide at the 
apex which is one-half wider than the base; second and third shining, 
equal in length, the third widest; fourth and following- narrowed to a 
point. Ovipositor shorter than the hind metatarsus. The abdomen is 
distinctly petiolate, convex above and not compressed apically, the sec- 
ond segment more or less brownish. Wings hy aline, the veins dark 
and very distinct. Eadial cell closed at the tip of the wing, the stigma 
linear, but thickened and reaching to the middle of the radial cell, its 
sides parallel except at each end. First and second cubital cells separ- 
ate, the second transverse cubitus about one-third the length of the 
second abscissa of the radius and equal to the first abscissa of the 
latter. Recurrent nervure received very near the base of the second 
cubital cell; second dlscoidal cell distinct, small and closed at apex, 
the subdiscoidal nervure not interstitial; submedian cell considerably 
longer than the median. Hind wings with the submedian cell one-half 
as long as the median along the costa.
