NEW SPECIES AND GENERA OF AMISEGINAE 
FROM ASIA (CHRYSIDIDAE, HYMENOPTERA)*

In a large shipment of miscellaneous, non-American chrysidids 
sent to me by Henry Townes of the American Entomological Insti- 
tute, Gainesville, Florida, all of the Amiseginae turned out to be 
new species. The majority of these were collected by E. and M. 
Becker in the Pasoh Forest Reserve in Malaysia. The new species of 
Cladobethylus and Isegama represent range extensions for both 
genera. Cladobethylus was previously known from Sri Lanka and 
Mindanao, Philippines. Isegama has been previously described only 
from Sri Lanka. 
Holotypes have been deposited in the American Entomological 
Institute, Gainesville, Florida. 
A variety of structures, dimensions and abbreviations, used 
below, need explanation. The malar space is the distance between 
the base of the mandible and the ocular margin. On the mesopleu- 
ron there are 2 possible carinae and/or sulci. The scrobal sulcus 
extends transversely across the mesopleuron from the scrobal pit. 
The oblique mesopleural carina originates below the pronotal lobe, 
and extends ventrally. Subantennal distance is the length between a 
line drawn across the lower edge of the antennal sockets and the 
clypeal apex. Abbreviations used below are: F = flagellum, MOD = 
midocellus diameter, PD = puncture diameter and T = gastral 
tergum.
