It contained references to the literature published through 1949, and to a few papers that appeared during 1950. The First Supplement to this catalog was published on October 8, 1958. It covered the literature that ap- peared from 1950-1951 through 1956. The Second Supplement, which is presented herewith, includes the literature published from 1957 through 1963, and in some sections, most of the papers that appeared during 1964. In general, this Second Supplement to the "Hymenoptera of America North of Mexico — Synoptic Catalog" preserves the form of the First Supplement. New supergeneric, generic, subgeneric, and trivial names are starred. Abbreviations and symbols agree with those used in the Catalog and First Supplement. Additions to distribution, hosts, or prey, or corrections to entries in the Catalog or First Supplement are made following the citation to the generic, subgeneric, or trivial name as it appears in the Catalog or First Supplement. Additional references to papers on biology, distribution, or taxonomy are made in the same way. In the center headings the first page reference is to the Catalog, followed by a reference to the First Supplement, if the latter is necessary. Generic transfers are shown as follows: Genus CEPHALGIA Panzer, pp. 9-10, Sup. 1, p. 8 apicalis (Westwood). Transf. to Acantholyda subg. Acantholyda A. Costa. ACANTHOLYDA subgenus ACANTHOLYDA A. Costa ( = Acan/hofyda A. Costa of Catalog, in part, pp. 7—9) apicalis (Westwood). Transf. from Cephalcia Panzer, p. 9 (teste Middle- kauff, 1958, loc. cit. supra, p. 77). When a species is transferred to a genus or subgenus different from the one in which it appears in the Catalog or First Supple- ment, all synonyms and other information under it are also trans- ferred, unless indicated otherwise. New synonymy is shown: modesta MacGillivray. Syn. of pini Rohwer. INTRODUCTION 5 pini Rohwer. Acantholyda modesta MacGillivray, 1923 (syn. by Middlekauff, 1958, loc. cit. supra, p. 85). New status is shown as : johnsoni johnsoni Viereck, changed status. Reduced to subsp. rank (teste Schuster, 1958, loc. cit. supra, p. 46). Generic or subgeneric transfer and a change in status may be combined : SPHAEROPTHALMA subgenus PHOTOPSIS Blake ( = Pho/ops/$ Blake of Catalog, in part, pp. 753—756) amphion (Fox), Transf. to Sphaeropthalnia subg. Photopsioides Schuster. ♦SPHAEROPTHALMA subgenus PHOTOPSIOIDES Schuster amphion amphion (Fox), changed status. Transf. from Photopsis Blake, p. 753 and reduced to subsp. rank (teste Schuster, 1958, loc. cit. supra, p. 38). In the Aculeata, subgeneric assignment may be indicated by a citation to the subgeneric name in parentheses following the species entry: robustior Cockerell (JEumelissodes) In many entries here, the compiler of a particular section has not agreed with the taxonomic placement or nomenclature used in a publication by some other worker. This divergence of opinion is expressed by citing the publication under the placement or usage here considered to be preferable, followed by an indication of the different placement or nomenclature in parentheses. For example: Genus EUPELMELLA Masi, p. 512 Nomenclature: Peck, 1963, loc. cit. supra, p. 492 (Macroneura) . In this Second Supplement the citations to the authorities for some changes, additions, or deletions have been shortened in order to save space. The references for new genera, subgenera, species, subspecies, and varieties are cited in full throughout, but fre- quently cited works may be referred to only by author, year, and page following the first reference. For instance, in the Ichneu- monidae, Townes and Townes, 1960. U. S. Natl. Mus. Bui. 216 (Pt. 2) : i-iv + 1-676 is, after its first citation, referred to as Townes and Townes, 1960, followed by particular page references. This has been done when this work is the authority for generic transfers, deletions, changes in status, or synonymy. References to discussions of biology, distribution, or taxonomy from this work are cited in the same way. Elsewhere in this supplement frequently cited works may be cited as loc. cit. supra, where such usage will save space without producing ambiguity of reference. For instance, in the Symphyta, Middlekauff, 1958. Calif. Univ. Pubs., Ent. 14: 51-174 is cited completely under the Family PAMPHILIIDAE. Subsequently it is referred to as Middlekauff, 1958, loc. cit. supra, with the page reference, where it is the source for generic transfers, changes in status, deletions, synonymy, or discussions of biology, distribu- 6 HYMENOPTERA OF AMERICA NORTH OF MEXICO tion, or taxonomy. In this supplement, some changes, deletions, or additions are made on the authority of the individual who prepared a particular section. These entries include no citation to the literature or to personal communications from some other worker. For instance, in the Symphyta, Genus SIREX Linnaeus, p. 83 of the catalog, the information that areolatus (Cresson) is "Adventive in Eastern States, emerging from lumber" is teste B. D. Burks, although this last phrase does not appear in the text. Order HYMENOPTERA Taxonomy: Richards, 1956. Hymenoptera, Introduction and Keys to Families. Handbooks Ident. Brit. Ins., Roy. Ent.

The clypeus, while impressed, is not circularly emar- ginate as in cyclostomines, and in habits and larval structure the species resemble the Euphorinae. For the present the group is treated here as a distinct subfamily, but it is removed from the cyclostomine section of the family and placed after the Euphorinae. It may eventually need to be rein- corporated in that subfamily. Taxonomy: Hedqvist, 1955. Ent. Tidskr. 76: 92-98.— Watanabe, 1960. Insecta Matsumurana 23: 55.

Family ICHNEUMONIDAE This second supplement of the Hymenoptera Catalog brings many changes, some of them complex, in the nomenclature of the Ichneumonidae. These changes have resulted from revisionary work in several subfamilies, and from a treatise of the type-species of the Foerster genera which were established originally without included species. In several instances, where the conclusions of two competent systematists differed and no specimens of the species involved were available, or no definitive characters given, the course followed was the one involving the least change. The pagination for species in "Hymenoptera of Beulah, New Mexico," by H. L. Viereck, 1903 (February), Amer. Ent. Soc. Trans. 29: 43 (bottom) -100, differs in the separate (published March 20). In the latter, the article begins at the top of page 43 and ends on page 99. The description of a given species usually occurs one page earlier in the separate. The pagination of species listed in the Catalog is that of the separate except in the Second Supplement, where a few were changed before the reason was discovered. The following revisions, when they occur in the text, are cited by author and date only because of frequency of occurrence, except that the complete reference is given for ail new species and subspecies.

His description follows : ICHNEUMONIDAE 175 Genus NANIUM Front wing 3.5 to 5.4 mm. long; clypeus separated from face by an impression, its profile weakly convex and apex broadly arcuate; mandibular teeth equal; junction of occipital and hypostomal carinae some distance above base of mandible; lateral ocellus separated from eye by about 2.5 its diameter; first flagellar segment about 1.55 as long as second; mesopleurum with a median longitudinal groove on only its hind 0.25 ± ; notaulus faint and rather short, or absent. Propodeum without carinae, its profile rather weakly convex; tarsal claws short, sparsely pectinate; areolet absent; me- diella strongly arched; nervellus vertical or inclivous, broken below the middle or sometimes not broken; first tergite rather short and broad, its dorsal profile weakly convex or almost flat, spiracle at the middle, its base without a dorsal pit, its dorso-lateral carina present to apex of glymma and sometimes present (but weak) between spiracle and apex; glymma rather short, deep, separated from glymma on opposite side by a translucent parti- tion; thyridium absent; sides of tergites 2 and 3 curved under, at least in female not clearly separated from their rather narrow epipleura; male sub- genital plate simple; tip of penis somewhat swollen, moderately decurved, its apex rounded; ovipositor sheath 0.35 to 0.6 as long as apical depth of abdo- men, moderately wide; ovipositor straight, moderately stout, with a strong subapical dorsal notch; cercus like the head of a mushroom, much wider than long. Type : Tryphon capitatus Cresson. This is an American genus, with the type-species in the eastern part of the Nearctic Region, and an undescribed species each in Mexico and in Chile.

Unfortunately, Microleptes is a lapsus calami for Microcleptes. In Gravenhorst's original description, the Greek word /jukpokXs-tv? was incorrectly spelled /j.iKpoXt'^TTTjs and ti-ansliter- ated from the latter, but the meaning given was for the former, "fureni rerum minutarum significante, quia hoc insectum minutum forsan non nisi larvas insectorum parvorum aggreditur."
