Abstract

In 1919 Timberlake (Proc. Hawaiian Ent. Soc. 4: 2 18- 225) described two genera of Encyrtidae for specie which are paraitic on the mature larvae of aculeate Hymenoptera in Hawaii. Coelopencyrtus was described for odyneri Timberlake and swezeyi Timberlake, both reared from the mature larvae of the vespid wasp Odynerus nigripennis (Holmgren), and Nesencyrtus was described for Adelencyrtus kaalae Ashmead, reared from them mature larvae of the collet id bee Nesoproopis pubescens Perkins.
