propodeum about twice as long dorsally as metanotum. - Palaearctic Region, endemic to Sicily. Type-species: Myzine latifasciata PALMA, 1869 Upaterka gen. n. 72 (53) Male oral cavity U-shaped, sides parallel (cf. Fig. 38); flagellar segments spinulose (cf. Fig. 65); inner eye orbit deeply emarginate; abdomen cylindrical, with subapical rows of thin, normal hairs. Female macropterous, brachypterous (Fig. 84) or micropterous; when fully winged, forewing (Fig. 89) with three submarginal cells: first rectangular, second triangular, third large, indicated by a spurious vein; inner border of mandible with a small triangular tooth (Figs 76, 77, 78); last segment of hind tarsi always longer than penultimate. Tribe Meriini trib. n. 73 (74) Male pronotal margin truncate, bordered by a blunt, low, nowhere lamelliform, densely macropunctate and pubescent ridge. Female ocellar triangle between inner orbits, well before upper top of eyes (Figs 88-89). - Afrotropical Region. Type-species: Meria semirufa GERSTAECKER, 1857 Hemimeria SAUSSURE, 1892 74 (73) Male pronotal margin bordered by a gular carina always lamelliform on sides (cf. Fig. 79), broadly polished and sparsely covered with small piliferous punctures, pubescence scattered. Female lateral ocelli on line with upper top of eyes (Fig. 76) or beyond it (Fig. 84). 75 (78) Male clypeus with median lobe transversely truncate and 1.5X as long as lateral lobe; antero-lateral pronotal margin with a right angle between its vertical and horizontal rami. Female mandible without medio-dorsal longitudinal keel (Fig. 78). 76 (77) Male mesopleuron with an oblique postpecta carina developed above mid coxa. Female head, thoracic dorsum and abdomen polished and shining, without microsculpture; brachypterous. - Palaearctic Region. Type-species: Tachus staphylinus JURINE, 1807 Tachus JURINE, 1807. 77 (76) Male mesopleuron without prepectal carina above mid coxa. Female head, thoracic dorsum and abdomen opaque, covered with delicately engraved, polygonal microreticulation; micropterous, wings scale-like. - Palaearctic Region. Type-species: (Meria lineata SICHEL, 1858) = Scolia cylindrica FABRICIUS, 1793 Fukpokta gen. n. 78 (75) Male clypeus with median lobe much narrower to about as wide as width of lateral lobe; antero-lateral pronotal margin always with an obtuse angle between its vertical and horizontal rami (Fig. 79). Female mandible with a sharp medio-dorsal longitudinal keel (Fig. 77). 79 (82) Male antero-lateral pronotal margin produced ventrad in a spine or acute corner, which exceeds and cover tignar sulcus in lateral view of thorax (cf. Figs 32, 34-35). Female either brachypterous (Fig. 84) and eye small, or else, macropterous, then eye large, distinctly wider in lateral view of head than distance between eye tops and occipital carina (Fig. 76). 80 (81) Male gular carina broadly vanished medio-dorsally and substituted by large setigerous punctures (cf. Fig. 82). Female brachypterous (Fig. 84); mesosternum only one quarter length of precoxal lobes; ocellar triangle situated beyond upper top of eyes (Fig. 84); terga with transverse row of large punctures straight and confined to apical margin (cf. Fig. 87). - Palaearctic Region. Type-species: Parameria graeca SAUNDERS, 1850 Pseudomeria SAUNDERS, 1850 81 (80) Male gular carina lamelliform throughout dorsally (Fig. 75). Female macropterous (cf. Fig. 89); mesosternum at least as long as precoxal lobes; ocellar triangle between inner orbits (Fig. 76); terga with transverse row of large punctures sharply bent toward the
