Howard, L. O. Report on the Parasites of the Coccidce in the Collec- 
tion of this Department [of Agriculture]. Comstock’s Rep. Dep. 
Agric. 1880, pt. iii. pp. 350-371. 
Relates to Chalcididm and Proctotrypidm. The author notices the fol- 
lowing known North American Chalcididm: — Aphelinus mytilaspidis, Le 
Baron, pi. xxiii. fig. 1, p. 354, mali, Hald. (p. 356) ; Aphelinus aspidioii- 
cola, Ashm., should be referred to the Mymarinm ; Coccophagus lecanii, 
Fitch, p. 357, Rhojms (= Acerophagus) coccois, Smith, pi. xxiv. fig. 2, 
p. 161 ; Signiphora Jlavo-palliatus, Ashm., is one of the Mymarinm, and 
Trichogramma jlavus and Stenomesius aphidicola, Ashm., do not belong to 
the genera to which they have been referred. 
Andrd (Ann. Soc. Ent. Fr. 6, i. pp. 332-338) discusses the genera allied 
to Chalcis, of which ho gives the following synonymy: — Chalcis, Fabr. 
(= Brachymeria, Westw., Phasgnonophora, Westw., Sich., and Conura, 
Spin., Sich., pt.) ; Smicra, Spin. (= Conura, Spin., Sich., pt.) ; Halticella, 
Spin. (= Euchalcis, Duf., and Allocera, Sich.). The structure of several 
species is also discussed, and details of Chalcis pectinicornis, Latr,, and 
minuta, Linn., are figured (pi. ix. figs. 4-6).
