The apical abdominal segments form a short broad sheath, showing an 
approach to Phasgonophora or Trigonvura as in C. capensis, Cam. (Ree. 
Alb. Mus., I, 311) to which this species is closely allied. 
Note. — In my description of capensis, 1. c., in the fourth line from the 
bottom of the page, for “ mesonotum ” read “ mesopleurae ”. 
Oncochalcis, Cam. 
= Holcochalcis , Kief., Berl. Ent. Zeit. XLIX, 258. 
Uncochalcis lissostoma, sp. n. 
Black ; the tegulae, apex of anterior femora, the black part obliquely 
narrowed towards the apex, a spot on the apex of the hind femora above 
and the tibiae, pale yellow ; the apex of the middle femora and the tarsi 
reddish testaceous ; the hind femora from shortly behind the middle red, 
the black basal mark roundly narrowed ; there are eleven distinct teeth, 
followed by six minute ones close together, the termina, one short, broad, 
indistinct. Apex of scutellum broadly rounded and fringed with silvery 
hair. The face, cheeks, and metapleura densely covered with long silvery 
pubescence ; the second and following abdominal segments fringed with 
silvery hair. Wings clear hyaline, the nervures black ; the tegulae whitish 
yellow. Female. 
Length, 4 mm. 
Groenvlei (Pretoria District). January. 
Bred. 
Face and clypeus smooth ; the sides of the vertex strongly, obliquely 
striated ; the occiput irregularly, obliquely, reticulated-striated. Pro- and 
mesothorax umbilically punctured all over, the prothorax finer than the 
rest. Metanotum strongly reticulated, without an areola ; it is short, 
with the sides broadly rounded. Sheath of ovipositor broad, projecting. 
Allied to 0. rotundata, Cam. (Zeits., f. Hymen, ii Dipter, 1905, 231) 
which is also from South Africa and has, like the present species, the apex 
of the scutellum not bilobate, the hind femora, too, being entirely red. 
Eurytominae. 
Eurytoma transvaalensis, sp. n. 
Black ; the head, thorax, and apical segments of the abdomen densely 
covered with silvery white pubescence ; the under side of the antennal 
scape rufous beneath, the legs white, the coxae, the greater part of the 
four anterior femora — about the basal three-fourths — and the posterior to 
near the apex, black ; the tibiae are tinged with fulvous more or less broadly 
in the middle — the fulvous tint varying in depth, inclining to black in one 
example — the apical tarsal joint fuscous to black ; wings clear hyaline, 
the nervures pale testaceous. Female. 
Length, 3 ‘5 mm. 
Pretoria. Bred. 
Antennae stout, the flagellum densely covered with white pubescence ; 
the third joint becoming gradually thickened towards the apex, about 
one-quarter longer than the fourth. Parapsidal furrows clearly defined,
