Pimpla chelonico, Gir,, parasitic on Nemeophila cervini, is specificallj’^ distinct 
from examinator, F., with which Sichel wrongly associates it : Fallou, Ann. 
Soc. Ent. Fr. (6) i. Bull. p. xxi. 
Pimpla oculatoria, F. Laboulhene, Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. (6) i. p. 444, has 
reared 6 5 of sp. from eggs of Epeira diadema, at least 100 spiders 
being hatched from the remaining eggs of the nest. 
PJiytodiaitus pilosellus, QiV.\ $ described: Giratid, /. c. p. 413. • 
Phytodicetus microtamius, Gr. According to Tschek, 1. c. p. 43, Mesohpim 
modestus,G\\ {Cryptopimplci), is 2 of this, the characters of the Pwtplides

Elasmosoma heroUnense, Buthe. Giraud, Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. (5) i. p. 299, 
corroborates Ruthe’s presumption that this sp. is myrmecophilous, as he has 
taken it plentifully with Formica rufa at Fontainebleau. The $ appeared 
to be absolutely in the ants-nest, and the males (which sex only he considers 
Ruthe to have described) were captured by sweeping the neighbouring 
herbage. In Styria, however, Giraud found the ^ (unaccompanied by the 
$ ) in the nest. 
Bracon tenuicornis, Wesm., bred from galls on Triticmn repens: Moncreaff, 
Ent. V. p. 240. 
Proterops nigripennis, Wesm., is parasitic on Hylotoma atrata: Giraud, 
1. c. p. 411. 
Sigalphus curculiojiis, Fitch (* Country Gentleman,’ Sept. 1859). Riley, 
iii. Rep. Ins. Mo. pp. 24-27, figs. 7 & 8, redescribes and figures this parasite 
of Conotrachelus nenuphar in its chief stages. According to him, Westwood 
is wrong in attributing 3 cubital areolets to the front wings in this genus.
