Psyche 
[February 
clypeal foveae deeply impressed, nearly as far from one another as 
from the eye; face’ slightly tuberculate above each fovea and 
clypeus strongly elevated centrally; malar space one-fourth the 
eye-height, with a distinct furrow; mandibles large, inner tooth 
well developed; palpi short, third joint of the maxillary ones 
scarcely two-thirds as long as the first flagellar joint; ocelli 
well separated, the lateral ones separated by their own length 
from one another and from the eye margin. Antennae with about 
55 joints, considerably longer than the body; second joint of 
flagellum practically as long as the first, the following growing 
very slightly shorter. Mesonotum and scutellum smooth; 
median lobe highly convex; furrows crenulate, basal scutellar 
impression cross-striate. Propodeum granulate, finely reticulate 
apically; the subspiracular carina complete, but the transverse 
one entirely wanting; spiracle small, oval; upper surface oblique, 
not convex in profile, the abdomen inserted well above the hind 
coxa3. Pleurae sparsely, minutely punctate, the propleura 
smooth, except at center. Abdomen slightly longer than the 
head and thorax together, compressed apically; first segment 
as long as the scutellum and propodeum; four times as long as 
broad at apex which is twice as wide as the base, spiracles at the 
basal fourth; entire abdomen smooth, conspicuously yellowish 
pilose apically. Legs rather long and slender, the hind coxae 
about three times as long as broad. Hind tibiae and tarsi very 
slender, but the longer apical spur fully half the length of the 
metatarsus; the tibia distinctly flattened, except on the basal 
third. Radial cell not attaining the wing tip; first section of 
radius more than half as long as the second which is less than 
half as long as the third; first discoidal cell not petiolate; nervulus 
perpendicular, distinctly postfurcal; recurrent nervure entering- 
half its length before the tip of the first cubital cell; second 
cubital cell narrowed apically, the second transverse cubitus half 
as long as the first and three fourths as long as the second section 
of the radius; nervulus arising at the lower fourth of the dis- 
coidal cell; last section of cubitus imperfectly chitinized. Radial 
cell of hind wing enlarged basally and constricted, but not 
divided medially.
