female smooth, covered with rare, small and shallow punctures. - Oriental Region. Type species: Scolia jurinei SAUSSURE, 1854 Iksalonca gen. n. Occipital carina well developed dorsally; antennái toruli of male separated from inner eye orbits by the diameter of a lateral ocellus, antenna very short, reach apex of propodeum; metanotum and propodeum of the female densely covered with numerous large, deep setigerous punctures, often rugosely so. - Palaearctic, Oriental and Afrotropical Regions. Type species: Scolia pygmaea SAUSSURE, 1858 Lacosia GUÉRIN, 1839 67 Fronto-clypeal suture of the male situated well below the level of anterior tentorial pit (Fig. 74); apical margin of the female metasternum convex, with rounded poste ro-lateral corners (Fig. 75); side lobes of the propodeum, of both sexes, very strongly prolonged postero-laterally over the basal articulation of the abdomen. Tribe Megascoliini trib. n. - Oriental Region. Type species: Scolia procer ILLIGER, 1802 Megascolia BETREM, 1928 Fronto-clypeal suture of male situated well above the level of anterior tentorial pit (cf. Fig. 85); apical margin of the female metasternum concave apically, sometimes very deeply so (cf. Fig. 78); side lobes of the propodeum not prolonged as above 68 68 Volsella of the male genitalia retained its primordial separation into digitus and cuspis, via a deep notch on its outer margin (Fig. 51 ); mid dorsal area of the propodeum always as long as scutellum; first tergum of the abdomen without an anterior tubercle (cf. Fig. 60). Tribe Scoliini LATREILLE, 1802 69 Volsella of the male genitalia without any trace of a deep notch on its outer margin (Fig. 52), sometimes at most with a shallow and rather wide emargination; first tergum of the abdomen often with an anterior tubercle. Tribe Lisocini trib. n. 73 69 Scoliini. Ventral margin of the clypeus triangular in outline, sharply protruding in both sexes (Fig. 64); wings hyaline, the membrane of wings completely glabrous, except for a narrow stripe along the costal margin, which is pubescent; body and the appendages pale yellow, with several rather reduced black marking. - Palaearctic Region. Type species: Scolia gussakovskii STEINBERG, 1953 Orlovinga gen. n. Ventral margin of clypeus always semicircular in female (cf. Fig. 95), although often slightly bisinuate on the sides, clypeal margin always broadly truncate in the male; wings yellow or black, the membrane almost completely pubescent throughout; body and the appendages more extensively black or red 70 70 Parameres of the male genitalia accomplished with a rather thick, conspicuous, Vshaped smooth tubercle, developed on its apical inner corner (Figs 87-88); second
