BRUES: PARASITIC IIYMENOPTERA. 65 as thick as the second; following gradually and distinctly wider toward the middle of the flagcllum, beyond which they become narrower; those near the middle over twice as wide as long. Mesonotum and pleurae rather closely punctate. Metanotum finely granular, completely areolated. Abdomen nearly twice as long as the head and thorax combined, clavate, gradually enlarged to the tip. First and second segments with two complete discal and a lateral carina, those on the first regularly convergent apically. First seg- ment nearly as long as the slope of the metathorax; second and third of about equal length, but higher; following nearly as long and gradually higher. Ovi- positor short and very slender, scarcely projecting. Posterior legs rather long and stout. Wings hyaline. Stigma and veins pale. Stigma long, almost linear; marginal cell extremely long and narrow. Areolet open; cubitodis- coidal cell long and narrow. Submedian cell a little longer than the median; first recurrent nervure curved, strongly oblique, broken below the middle. Type.—No. 2240, M. C. Z., Florissant, Col. (No. 5963, S. H. Scudder Coll.). This is a very large conspicuous species and seems without any doubt to belong here. Tylecomnus pimploides, sp. nov. (Fig. 49.) Female. Length 14-16 mm. Apparently entirely dark colored although the type specimen is irregularly discolored and shows yellowish markings. Antennae long and stout, tapering, with very many joints; second and third flagellar joints each but little longer than wide; joints toward the middle. Fig. 49.— Tylecomnus pimploides, sp. nov. Type. about half wider than long; apical joints smaller, about quadrate. Head large, broadly transverse; face densely punctate. Mesonotum with deeply impressed parapsidal furrows which are widely separated at the base of the scutellum. Pleurae in front strongly horizontally wrinkled. Scu
