Ichneumonides. 
Taschenberg (Zeitschr. ges. Naturwiss. 1865, pp. 1-14.2) lias 
submitted the species of Cry plus and the allied genera [Cryp- 
tides) to a careful revision, and established among them several 
new genera. The species described are chiefly German; but of 
the 21 genera admitted, only 12 are really treated by the 
author, and for the remainder, namely Catalytus, PterocormiiSj 
CremnodeSy StibeuteSy Agrothereutes y AptesiSy TheroscopuSy Pezo- 
lochuSy and PezomachuSy the reader is referred to Forster^s 
Monographie der Gattung Pezomachus.^' The genera described 
in detail by Taschenberg are : — 
1 . Exolytus (Forst.) 1 species ; 2. Phygadeuon (Grav.) 96 species, 13 new ; 
3. Stilpnus (Grav.) 1 species (3 others described by Gravenhorst) ; 4. Cryptics 
(Grav.) 98 species, 13 new ; 5. LinoceraSy g. n., 3 species ; 6 . JBrachycentruSy 
g. n., 1 species ; 7. Mesostenus (Grav.) 10 species; 8 . Nematopodius (Grav.) 
1 species ; 9. Hemiteles (Grav.) 56 species, 8 new ; 10. Orihopehnay g. n., 
2 species, 1 new ; 11. Agriotypus (Walk.) 1 species ; and 12. Ischnocerus 
(Grav.) 2 species. 
The characters of all the genera are given in the analytical 
tabic (pp, 7-9), and the species are also tabulated, those of the
