Synopsis of the North American Species of _Eusandalum_. Females. (From
the types.)
1. Wings bifasciate, the distal fuscous band at apex. Legs red
except the coxae, the antennae wholly concolorous. Ovipositor
extruded for over half the length of the abdomen. Scutellum
longitudinally lined.
Hyaline band of fore wing distinctly narrower than either fuscous
band (one on each side of it); stylus a little shorter than the
ovipositor. _californicum_ Girault
Hyaline band of fore wing somewhat broader than either fuscous
stripe; stylus and ovipositor equal. _coquillettii_ Ashmead
2. Wings unifasciate or wholly embrowned or with a large unbroken,
fuscous area. Wings wholly infuscated. Scutellum densely
punctate like the scutum (in the first species). Propodeum with
a lateral sulcus.
Ovipositor much extruded.
Legs reddish except the coxae and the first and third femora
_ventrad_; more slender than usual, the ovipositor about as in
_californicum_ but the abdomen is longer, hence the ovipositor
is so. Fore wing with a longitudinal white streak caudad of
middle. _acmaeoderae_ Rohwer
Ovipositor extruded for less than a fourth the length of the abdomen,
the stylus subobsolete.
Fore wings indefinitely slightly stained; legs reddish except the
coxae; scutellum long-lineolated. _obscurum_ Girault
Wings infuscated from the bend of the submarginal vein to apex or
nearly. Antennæ concolorous (compare _obscurum_).
