Black, the legs brownish testaceous, the tips of the femora, tips of the tibiae and tarsi of posterior pair blackened. Abdomen dark, lighter toward the tip and on the venter; antennae slender, many jointed (about 30-35), the joints toward the middle one-half longer than wide, and only slightly thicker than the apical joints which are distinctly longer than wide. Surface of thorax rougher than usual in the genus; metathorax com- pletely areolated, the basal pleural and second pleural areas completely sepa- rated; basally the metanotum is nearly smooth but apically it is very distinctly rugose-reticulate. Abdomen much shorter and stouter than usual; first seg-. Fig. 57.— Limnerium plenum, sp. nov. Type. ment short, not so long as the posterior slope of the metathorax; second segment a little shorter than the first; third to sixth about equal in length; terminal segment longer. Ovipositor issuing from the base of the fifth segment, from its extreme base to tip nearly asdong as the abdomen exclusive of the petiole. Wings yellowish hyaline; stigma fuscous; veins pale brown; stigma rather broad, one-half as wide as the marginal cell; second section of the radius twice as long as the first; areolet small, triangular, distinctly but shortly petiolate above; submedian cell slightly but plainly longer than the median. Described from one specimen with its reverse, both quite well preserved, from Station No. 17, collected by Mrs. W. P.
