Priocnemioides angusticeps, new species Plate 2, figure 17 Forewing of male 11 to 15 mm. long, of female 14 to 18 mm. long; temple rather sloping, the head somewhat narrower across the temples than across the eyes; pronotum of male a little longer than in vicornis or P. unvfasciatus; suberect hair on upper part of pronotum moderately long; propodeum with rather fine transverse wrinkling, most distinct in the female; subgenital plate of male with a low, weak, median longitudinal ridge that tapers from the Figure 27.—Localities for Priocnemioides angusticeps. Black. Flagellum orange; wings orange, infuscate basally and apically. In the forewing the basal infuscate area extends about the distance to the basal vein and the apical infuscation just reaches or invades the apex of the radial cell. This species is superficially similar to P. unifasciatus cressoni but may be distinguished by the tapering shape of the median longitudinal raised area on the male subgenital plate, the narrower temple, and the broader apical infuscation on the forewing.
