first recurrent vein just beyond the middle, the second re- 
current ends just a little beyond the cell; the second dis- 
coidal cell is quite long, once and a half as long as second 
recurrent vein, latter very oblique. 
Length 14 mm., fore wing 10 mm.

Pedinaspis nigriceps sp. nov. 
$ Head black, scutellum, propodeum, pleura, legs, an- 
tennae, basal abdominal segment, and tip of abdomen, 
black. Pronotum, mesonotum (except scutellum) abdomi- 
nal segments from second to fifth inclusive, red. Clypeus 
strongly rounded below; third joint of antennae no longer 
than fourth ; ocelli up as high as in P. mariae, in a low tri- 
angle, posteriors scarcely nearer to eyes than to each other. 
Pronotum slightly arcuate behind ; propodeum with a broad 
deep median groove on the basal part, the declivity trans- 
versely striate. Wings fumose, about as in P. contiguus;

From Stein, Grant Co., New Mexico, 14 July (J. Be- 
quaert). Type M.C.Z. 17029. 
Separated from P. contiguus by black propodeum, and by 
fifth abdominal segment red, no white on tip, and striae on 
propodeum. It is near to P. portici Rohwer in appearance, 
but that has a< red head and is described in the subgenus 
Psorthaspis; this is a true Pedinaspis. 
Allaporus gen. nov. 
Type Planiceps pulchellus Bks., also going in the genus

They differ from our other Planiceps in having the first 
recurrent vein interstitial with the base of the second sub- 
marginal cell, and the second recurrent vein ends in the 
second submarginal cell a short distance before tip. This
