V. appellator Nees The following markings vary on specimens collected in the Carpathian Basin : 1. With distinct edge, and rugulositv along its side, on metanotum of çf rf* 2. Tergite 1. wholly smooth. 3. Tergite 2. scarcely more rugulose than its halfth, with base of tergite 3. weakly rugulose. 4. Tergite wholly smooth. 5. Distal half of tergite 3. weaklv, sometimes extensively and roughly rugose. In latter case, base of tergite 4. also rugulose (var. striolatus Fah.?). 6. Ovipositor shorter than body. 7. Black spot of ocelli not extending over ocelli. V. tentator Rossi The following markings varv on specimens collected in the Carpathian Basin : 1. Cheek wholly smooth. 2. No furrow on mesonotum. 3. Rugosity on metanotum of x * restricted only along central line. 4. Only the proximal half of tergite 3. rugulose. 5. Black spot of especially males around ocelli may reach oculi. 6. Scutellum entirely (or spotted-) black or it may be black only on margin. 7. Black colouration variable on tergites, metanotum and legs. 8. Stigma wholly dark brown. 9. Central field and surroundings of tergite dark or black. V. nominator F. The following markings varv on specimens collected in the Carpathian Basin : 1. No central edge on metanotum, its rugosity weak. 2. Tergite 3. almost entirely smooth. 3. Tergite 3. almost wholly rugulose. 4. Black spot of ocelli reaches oculi. 5. Proximal spot of mesonotum indistinct. 6. Stigma totally dark. 7. Central spot of tergite 2. indistinct. 8. Black spots wanting on tergites 4—5. 9. Every segment of males yellow. This variety resembles the male of V. radiatulus Thorns. According to Telenga (1936 : 312), the male of this species is distinguished from the male of V. nominator bv the ,,red" abdominal segments. 10. Abdomen almost entirelv black. Genus Baryproctus Ashmead, 1900 Key to s p e c i e s Ç_ Q_ and çf çf 1 (2) Antenna 52-jointed. Margin of clypeus not hairy. Metanotum wholly rugulose. Last two segments of male black. Length 5,5— 6 mm. — Range : Up to now collected in the Carpathian Basin and in Ukraine 1. hungaricus Szépligeti, 1901 2 (1) Antenna 42-jointed. Margin of clypeus hairy. Length 5 mm. Male unknown. — Range : the single Ç specimen was collected in our country (Pannonicum) 2. apti Győrfi,1953 Genus Syntomomelus Kokujev, 1902 Single species : Almost whole surface of head and thorax densely hairy, entirely smooth and shiny. Antenna scarcely shorter than body. Tergites 1—2. totally, proximal half of tergite 3., rugulose, other tergites smooth and shiny. Body black, only tergites 2—3. may be spotted with red. Legs reddish-yellow, only claw-joints dark. Length 5—9 mm. Male unknown. -— Range : Belgium, Finland, Moravia, Eastern-Europe, Cazahstan.
