Sincethese convey little or nothing, however, beyond their sound to the un-initiated, I prefer a more direct method than tliat of Marshall, transposedto the Ichneumonidae by , and pro[)Ose the adoption of thefoll(jwing intelligible orismology, which claims nothing but simplicity,facility of retention and more or less uniformity with those terms appliedto analogous organs in the other groups of Hymenoptera. In the forewing, the nervures set forth in the figure are best explainedby the names attached to them. The costal and sub-costal are united inthe costa, which extends from the radix (B) to the base of the stigma^ ;.
