PREFACE. 
 
 THE object of the present Catalogue has been to give 
 a complete list of the species of Ichneumonidse that have 
 been recorded as found in the British Islands, marking 
 with B. M. in the margin the species contained in the 
 British Museum. The cabinets, where the species, at 
 present desiderata to that collection, may be seen, are 
 indicated. 
 
 The species are arranged according to the method, used 
 in Professor I. L. C. Gravenhorst's Ichneumonologia Europcea, 
 Vratislavisc, 1829, 3 vols. 8vo., and those supposed to be 
 new are described by the author.

 Note. Gravenhorst thinks his /. rufatorius may be /. crispa- 
 torius of Linnaeus : Wesmael is of the same opinion. The two spe- 
 cimens in Mr. Desvignes' collection agree with the Linnean insect, 
 with the exception of being less ferruginous on the same segments. 
 However, it appears to be a variable insect, and there is scarcely a 
 doubt, that from the descriptions given in Linnaeus, Gravenhorst 
 and Wesmael, from different specimens, and the ci-devant specimens
