not slenderly conical, not distinctly longer than the thorax and the ovipositor is distinctly 
extruded. Also the green of tlie body is darker and more co])pery; the ovi 2 )ositor is only a 
little extruded in sawtpierrei. Tlie ju’opodeinn is very short at the meson in both species, 
widening laterad ; in saintpierrei there is no lateral carina but a fovea in its stead (this may 
be due to shrivelling). In hosirelU there ai)pear to be no carimn on the short propodeum.
