. Bulletin - United States National Museum. Science. ICHNEUMON-FLIES, PART 2: EPHIALTINAE 107 as long as wide; clasper elongate, its apical part rather broadly spatulate. Colored like the male of P. decumbens except that the subapical fuscous mark on the hind femur is a little more extensive, occupying about the length of the femur. Female: Front wing to mm. long; clypeus about as wide as long; nervellus broken near its upper ; first tergite about as long as wide; ovipositor sheath to as long as front wing; dorsal part of basal three teeth of ovipositor tip

Female: Front wing to mm. long; clypeus about as wide as long; nervellus broken near its upper ; first tergite about as long as wide; ovipositor sheath to as long as front wing; dorsal part of basal three teeth of ovipositor tip turned forward almost horizontally. Black. Clypeus light reddish brown; palpi stramineous; hind corner of pronotum (with a short forward extension along upper mar- gin of pronotum), and tegula, white; coxae fulvous; second trochanters whitish, the second trochanter of hind leg fulvous above; first tro- chanter of front leg whitish in front; femora fulvous, the extreme apex of femora whitish, the hind femur narrowly brownish at base and with a subapical fuscous area that occupies about its length; front and middle tibiae fulvous, obscurely varied with whitish and pale fuscous; hind tibia infuscate, a little paler below and its basal ± stramin- eous; front and middle tarsi pale brownish, infuscate apically (espe- cially the middle tarsus); hind tarsus fuscous, pale at extreme base. Figure 45.—Localities for Pimpla We have seen a short series of males of this species from Finland (Helsinki museum), which differ from Nearctic males in having the long hairs on the costal and subcostal veins a little shorter and less erect. They seem to represent a distinguishable race. European museums doubtless possess females of spatulata in some numbers but these are not easy to distinguish from females of the commoner P.
