pedicel, as long as or slightly shorter than this (Fig. 39); temples behind eyes without adorbital groove; pygidium wholly bordered by denticles. Two genera. Genus Gynecaptera Skorikov, 1935 Type-species: Apterogyna (Gynecaptera) trimaculata Skorikov, 1935; first included species; by present designation. Diagnosis. Mesoscutum of male without parapsidal furrows or notaulices; meso­pleuron bordered anteriorly by a complete acetabular carina (Fig. 36); scutellum horizon­tal, abruptly declivous posteriorly; female second tergum (Fig. 35), as well as the area of mesoscutum with a yellow integumental spot; pygidium bordered by acute denticles. Distribution. Contains two species: 1. G. trimaculata Skorikov, 1935 (= A. henrici Invrea, 1960, syn. n.) both sexes known, from Egypt, Iran, Israel, Turkistan. 2. G. alexan­dri (Invrea, 1950) comb. n. (= A. priesneri Invrea, 1960, syn. n.; A. alexandri f. albe­scens Invrea, 1960, syn. n.), both sexes are known from Egypt, Israel. Genus Mutillariola gen. n. Type-species: Apterogyna bimaculata Andre, 1898; by present designation. Diagnosis. Mesoscutum of male both with developed parapsidal furrows and no­taulices (Fig. 41); mesopleuron without acetabular carina; scutellum flat, entirely decli­vous from base to apex; female (Fig. 39) mesoscutum without, second tergum with a yel­low integumental stripe, often imperfectly separated into a pair of lateral spots; pygidium bordered by blunt, apically truncate denticles (Fig. 40). Distribution. Contains only the type of the genus, M. bimaculata (Andre, 1898) comb. n. (= A. bimaculata f. rufescens Mercet, 1903, syn n.; A. jovanovica Nonveiller, 1972, syn. n.), both sexes known from Algeria, Greece, Israel, Morocco, Spain. The name proposed by Nonveiller (1972) is invalid under the prescriptions of the Code, be­cause it is a species-group name containing diacritical sign proposed after 1953, other­wise and primarily, because his species differs in no characters from bimaculata. Tribe Icalanticini nov. Diagnosis. Diurnal; both sexes with a median patch or apical fringe of pale pube­scence on first two abdominal terga (Fig. 23), some males, however, without fringe, have a weak median patch, formed by six crossing setae only; male eye and ocelli small, antenno-ocular distance much greater than transverse diameter of median ocellus (Fig. 15); scape wider than long; mesopleuron without acetabular carina; mesoscutum with de­veloped parapsidal furrows and notaulices; trochanter of middle leg always with a coni­cal tubercle, tegumental gland skimmer lying in the longitudinal striations; trochanter of hind leg without tubercle; abdominal terga 4-7 with lateral gradulus; female vertex high, vaulted (Fig. 22); with no integumental spots on mesoscutum and on third tergum: pygi­dium wholly bordered by acute denticles. Two genera.
