INTRODUCTION
The genus Enclisis: Townes belongs to the tribe Ischnini of the subfamily Mesosteninae, family Ichneumonidae.It contains small to medium species, measuring 7-8 mm in length.This is a small genus previ~usly k.nown from Palaearctic region (Townes, 1970 : 169).
In Palaearctic region this species is represented by three species viz., Enclisis macilentus (Gravenhorst), Enclisis alpicola Habermehl, and Enclisis vindex Tschek.This genus is recorded here for the first time from India.Two new species are described here from Himachal Pradesh in India.
Body moderately slender.Clypeus of moderate size, about 2.3x as wide as long, moderately conve1t, its apex with a weak m~dian tooth or blunt angulation (Fig. 1 , b).Malarspace about 0.7 to I.Ox as long as basal width of~andible.Mandible short with equal teeth.Apical 0.3 of female fla~ellm not enl.arge,not flattened •below, blunt and truncate at the end.Mesoscutum polished or weakly mat, its punctures small and fine.Notaulus moderately strong, reaching slightly beyond the center of mesoscutum~ PropOdeal spiracle circular.Propodeum a little elongate, its apical transverse carina com.plete, a little stronger sublaterally forming weak crest.Base of hind coxa qeep, with a weak basal impression on outer side below its attachment but without a distinct groove'.Venation as shown in the figure I, a; areolet small to large and pentagonal, the second ,recurr~nt vein distinctly inclivous.First tergite moderately slender, without a lateral projection at base, the spiracle only slightly behind the middle, its ventrolateral carina sharp and complete, dorsolateral carina sharp to rather blunt (complete or almost so), and median dorsal carinae distinct oli petiole, becoming obsolescent near center of postpetiole.Second tergite mat with fine, dense weak punctures.Ovipositor sheath about 0~9 to 1.4 times as long as hind tibia.Ovipositor compressed, its tip heavy, upper valve evenly arched with a distinct nodus, lower valve with 8-1 0 t~eth (Fig. I , c).
Type-species : Cryptus macilentus Gravenhorst.This genus is close to Dihelus Townes in having spiracle of first tergite only slightly behind the middle; ovipositor tip compressed, its ridges subvertical.It is also close to Cyclaulus Townes, in having lower tooth of mandible of the same length as upper tooth; center of apical margin of clypeus with a single tubercle or tooth.Ho~evet, it can be easily distinguished by having hind end of sternaulus curved weakly downward toward base of middle coxa.
The Indian species can be identified by the following key : Key to the species of Enclisis 1. Body largely black; seventh to nineth flagellar segments, face with small lateral spots, clypeus with a median spot and pronotal collar above, whitish.Legs with fore and middle coxae and trochanters, dark reddish-brown.This species can be recognizea by having largely black body, especially all the coxae and trochanters black.Body densely punctate, punctures running into striat~ons; areolet moderately large, wider than high; second recurrent vein close to first intercubitus.
