Extract

Since my previous report on the Chalcidoid parasites of Glossina appeared (Bull.Ent. Res., vi, pt. 1, p. 69, 1915) a second important collection has been received by the Imperial Bureau of Entomology from Dr. W. A. Lamborn, their Entomologist in Nyasaland. In this materal five species are represented, of which three here described are believed to be new. The status of the remaining two, Stomatoceras micans, Wtrst., and Syntomosphyrum glossinae, Wtrst., may now be regarded as established, in the former case from its recurrence on the same host in two widely separated localities, in the latter from Dr. Lamborn's valuable notes. Six species of Chalcidoids have now been bred from puparia of Glossina spp., and all from G. morsitans.
