Walker (London: 1871) publishes Notes on Clialcidite 
under the following titles; — Part I. Eurytomidae, pp. 1-18 ; 
Part II. Eurytomidae and Torymidae, pp. 19-36 ; Part III. Tory- 
midae and Chalcididae, pp. 37-54 ; Part IV. Chalcididse, Leuco- 
spidae [rectius Leucaspidae], Agaonidae, Eucharidae, Perilampidae, 
Ormyridae, and Encyrtidae, pp. 55-70. At pp. 2 & 3 is a 
synoptical table of the British subfamilies. 
To prevent confusion, these papers are here analyzed as a whole, adhering 
to the author’s subfamilies,

and Trigonura under Halticella [s/c], at the same time stating his belief of
