ACOENITINX. 
Paracollyria carinifrons, sp. n. 
Black, smooth and shining ; the head, including the mandibles, except 
the apex narrowly, palpi, antennal scape, prothorax, and anterior legs, 
red ; the eighth to fourteenth joints of the flagellum except above and the 
fifteenth to eighteenth or nineteenth entirely yellowish- white ; wings 
.fuscous violaceous ; there is a tripartite cloud of irregular shape in the 
fore wings, it commences near the costa, half-way between the stigma 
and apex of the wings, outside the transverse cubital nervure, from which 
it is clearly separated and of the recurrent nervure which it almost touches 
and where it becomes widened ; disco-cubital nervure broken by a 
stump. Male. 
Length, 11 mm. 
Waterval (Zoutpansberg District). November. 
Face and clypeus sparsely, weakly punctured ; the latter depressed 
on either side of the apex. Front depressed, a narrow but distinct keel 
down the middle. Hinder ocelli separated from the eyes by the same 
distance as they are from each other. Malar space as long as the eyes, 
a narrow furrow down it. Parapsidal furrows deep, the base smooth, the 
rest stoutly crenulated. Base of post-scutellum with two large foveae, 
longer than wide, rounded at the apex. Middle of metanotum with two 
keels forming a deep channel, slightly widened and rounded at the apex ; 
the part on either side is smooth to near the middle, the rest closely, 
strongly reticulated, this part being bordered laterally and at the apex 
by a keel. The first abdominal segment is as long as the following two 
united. Antennae twenty-nine- jointed, the last joint thickened, the 
three behind it narrowed to a bluntly rounded point on the under side, 
clearly separated. There is a bulla on the disco-cubital nervure and two 
on the recurrent ; the recurrent nervure is separated from the transverse 
cubital by a slightly greater distance than its own length. There is an 
area, lengthened and narrowed on the outer side, on either side of the 
apical slope of the metanotum. 
Allied to P. ruficollis, Cam., from Rhodesia, of which only the female is 
known. 
OPHXONXNAE. 
Ophionini. 
Heniscospilus pallidiceps, sp. n. 
Pallid testaceous ; the head for the greater part pale yellow, the 
antennae rufous, the wings clear hyaline, highly iridiscent, the costa, 
stigma, apex of transverse basal nervure broadly and the basal abscissa of 
the radius testaceous, the other nervures black ; there are two horny 
points, both with long curved processes ; the basal one is wide, almost 
bilobate at the base, the sides rounded, it becomes gradually narrowed to
