Head very large, twice as broad as the thorax, and with the thora; 
and 1st segment of the abdomen finelj^ punctulate. Antennse tri 
colorous, joints 1 — 3 — 4 testaceous, the rest blackish, 7 — 8 white above 
Areolae of the metathorax distinct ; areola superomedia short, small 
posteromedia hexagonal, narrow above, widest in the middle, and slighfcl; 
decreasing in width thence to the apex ; areolcs spiraculiferce bisectei 
by a transverse carina; all the areolae distinctly punctulate. Firs 
segment of the abdomen w^ith the tubercles inconspicuous, medial 
three times wider at the apex than the width of the petiole, punctulati 
with 2 abbreviated longitudinal carinae, and 2 lateral longitudinal fur 
rows; apex glabrous. Segments 2, etc., hardly punctulate, shining 
black, sometimes more or less pitchy. Terebra fulvous, the sheath 
testaceous, tipped with black. Fore-wings with a triangular stigma 
the apical nervures imperfect (in one specimen the radial cell is close 
on the right ride, and open on the left) ; areolet transverse, 4 angula 
or irregular, the lower nervure incomplete (in one individual the areole 
is obsolete, reduced to a punctiform knot ; the same insect has als 
rather shorter wings). 
I took four of this distinct and unnoticed species last month, in^ 
wood near Milford Haven.
