1936] Perilampus, a Secondary Parasite 85 
puparia found in the cells of the digger wasp Ammobia ich- 
neumonea which provisions her nest with long-horned 
grasshoppers of the species Neoconocephalus ensiger {Con- 
ocephalus ensiger) and Conocephalus attenuatum ( Xiphi - 
dium attenuatum ) . This confirms the opinion of Ford that 
the planidium found in Conocephalus fasciatus is a sec- 
ondary parasite of a Tachinid parasitic on long-horned 
grasshoppers, in this case Senotainia trilineata,
