Anellan cell of the hindwing extremely short, less than a third as long as the meellan cell; Stantonia Ashmead Anellan cell large, at least half as long as the meellan cell; nervellus meets medialla at almost a right angle Microtypus Ratzeburg 3.
Hind coxa usually half as long as hind femur, sometimes longer, and the latter may be from 3 to 6 times as long as wide; the inner calcarium of the hind tibia is always longer than the outer one and is usually at least half the length of the metatarsus;. In the forewing the stigma is usually quite narrow and the radial cell at the wing margin is often about as long as the stigma, but sometimes conspicuous. In the hind wing the submedial cell is at least half the length of the medial cell; the wing itself varies considerably in shape, being sometimes very narrow, but more often comparatively broad.
The ovipositor is always prominent, the sheath varying in length from shorter than the abdomen to more than twice as long as the head, thorax and abdomen combined. Most of the known species have a well-developed stump of a third abscissa of cubitus that is at least as long as the second abscissa.
Forewings contrastingly hyaline basally and infumated apically; ovipositor sheath not or barely longer than abdomen; none of the flagellar segments of the female antennae wider

Manuscripts for serials are accepted by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to actual review, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums. If submission is invited, the following format requirements for the press will govern the preparation of the copy. An instruction sheet for preparing illustrations can be requested from the press.).
Copy must be typed, double-spaced, on one side of standard white bond paper, with 1/2" top and left margins, submitted in ribbon copy with a carbon or duplicate and accompanied by the original artwork. There may be several paragraphs to a page, but each page must begin with a new paragraph Identify the author on the first page of text with an unnumbered footnote that includes his professional mailing address.
An index, if necessary, can be provided by the author when he returns page proof. In taxonomic keys, number only the first item of each couplet; if there is only one couplet, omit the number. Also number the taxa and their corresponding headings throughout the text for easy reference; do not include page references in the key.
In synonymy, use the short form (taxon, author, date, page) with a full reference at the end of the paper under "Literature Cited." Begin each taxon at the left margin with subsequent lines indented approximately three spaces. Simple tables in the text (eg columns of data) may or may not have headings, but they should not contain lines. Formal tables should be submitted as pages separate from the text, and each table, however large, should be pasted as a single sheet of copy.
Submit all explanations on pages separate from the text and not attached to the illustration. In the bibliography (usually called "Literature Cited"), spell book, journal, and article titles using initial caps with all words except minor expressions such as "and, of, the." (For capitalization of foreign language titles, follow the national practice of each language.) Underline (for italics) book and periodical titles. A non-Smithsonian author will receive 50 free copies; order slips for quantities above this amount with payment instructions will be provided when page proof is forwarded.
