Luzon, Manila (W. A. Stanton) . Mindanao, Dapitan {Baker). 
The Dapitan specimen agrees with Ashmead’s account, but is 
I think certainly only a variation of the commoner form, Nomia 
notha. Unless additional material from Manila shows better 
distinctive characters, I must conclude that there is only one 
distinct species involved.
