Biodiversity Data Journal 4: e8013. doi: 10.3897/ BDJ.4.e8013 Abstract Background A revised checklist of the British and Irish Chalcidoidea and Mymarommatoidea substantially updates the previous comprehensive checklist, dating from 1978. Country level data (i.e. occurrence in England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland and the Isle of Man) is reported where known. New information A total of 1754 British and Irish Chalcidoidea species represents a 22% increase on the number of British species known in 1978.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION U. S. NATIONAL MUSEUM Vol. 93 Washington : 1943 No. 3170 THE NORTH AMERICAN PARASITIC WASPS OF THE GENUS TETRASTICHUS—A CONTRIBUTION TO BIO- LOGICAL CONTROL OF INSECT PESTS By B. D. Burks* The genus Tetrastichus Haliday (Hymenoptera : Eulophidae) in- cludes a large number of species of minute chalcid-flies. These may be either primary parasites or hyperparasites, and they attack a wide variety of hosts (see host list hereinafter), including such destructive pests ib the Hessian fly and the cotton boll weevil and many kinds of fchrips, aphids, midges, leaf miners, scales, tent caterpillars, borers, roaches, beetles, and gall-makers injurious to agriculture, horticulture, and forestry. The}* have been reared from the eggs, larvae, and pupae of other insects, as well as from many plant galls. Economi- cally, therefore, this is an important group of the Chaleidoidea, and a thorough understanding of its species and relationships is desirable. Twenty-three species are herein described for the first time. From a taxonomic standpoint this genus is a difficult one for several reasons. The species are so small that very good microscope equipment is needed for studying them. Specimens are only lightly sclerotized, so that they almost invariably shrivel badly in drying; this tends to conceal or distort their morphological characters. It has not, however, been possible satisfactorily to study specimens pre- served in alcohol or on slides. There is, furthermore, a great lack of good, definite morphological characters for the separation of species Acknowledgment is made to the Illinois State Natural History Survey, Urbana, 111., for granting the author a leave of absence on two occasions, which permitted him to accept a temporary appointment by the U. -

A map shows the main geographical territories of Russia. The catalogue contains information about 113 holotypes that are deposited in Zoological Institution of Russian Academy of Science, St. Petersburg, Russia (ZIN). The text is based on 116 searches of the relevant literature. This catalogue should be useful to specialists in plant protection and biological control. It is hoped that this information will also be of interest to all chalcidologists, especially those who are working on the Eulophidae.

M.N. Nikolskaya was the first organiser of the chalcid scientific school with the first study emanating from the Plant Protection Institution. The monograph "Chalcid fauna of USSR" by Nikolskaya was published in 1952 and had great significance for development of the study of chalcids. -

The assemblage included 35 species of parasitoids belonging to the Eulophidae (Eulophinae, Entedoninae, and Tetrastichinae), Pteromalidae, Encyrtidae, Ichneumonidae, and Braconidae, with 18 species being reported as Ph. populifoliella parasitoids for the first time. Sympiesis sericeicornis , Chrysocharis laomedon and Sympiesis gordius were major elements of the assemblage. While S. gordius showed a confident negative correlation with the population density of the miner, none of the other two species had confident relationships with the population density of the host. -

Burksa,*, John M. Heratya, Marco Gebiolab and Christer Hanssonc aDepartment of Entomology, University of California, Riverside, CA, USA; bDipartimento di Entomologia e Zoologia agraria ‘‘F. Silvestri’’ Universita` degli Studi di Napoli ‘‘Federico II’’, Italy; cDepartment of Biology, Zoology, Lund University, Lund, Sweden Accepted 9 March 2011 Abstract A new combined molecular and morphological phylogeny of the Eulophidae is presented with special reference to the subfamily Entedoninae. We examined 28S D2–D5 and CO1 gene regions with parsimony and partitioned Bayesian analyses, and examined the impact of a small set of historically recognized morphological characters on combined analyses. Eulophidae was strongly supported as monophyletic only after exclusion of the enigmatic genus Trisecodes. The subfamilies Eulophinae, Entiinae (=Euderinae) and Tetrastichinae were consistently supported as monophyletic, but Entedoninae was monophyletic only in combined analyses. Six contiguous bases in the 3e¢ subregion of the 28S D2 rDNA contributed to placement of nominal subgenus of Closterocerus outside Entedoninae. In all cases, Euderomphalini was excluded from Entiinae, and we suggest that it be retained in Entedoninae. Opheliminae n. stat. is raised from tribe to subfamily status. Trisecodes is removed from Entedoninae but retained as incertae sedis in Eulophidae until its family placement can be determined new placement. The genera Neochrysocharis stat. rev. and Asecodes stat. rev. are removed from synonymy with Closterocerus because strong molecular differences corroborate their morphological differences. Closterocerus (Achrysocharis) germanicus is transferred to the genus Chrysonotomyia n. -

Afrocampe gen. nov. is described for its only species, A. prinslooi gen. et sp. nov., from Eastern and Western Cape, South Africa. This new genus is recognized as a member of the subfamily Tetracampinae Förster, 1856 of Tetracampidae Förster, 1856 based on the possession of 5-segmented tarsi in females and 4-segmented tarsi in males, the short straight calcar, the mesoscutum with distinct notauli, the mesoscutellum with two pairs of setae, the reduced mesopleural suture and the short stigmal and long postmarginal veins of the fore wing. Afrocampe gen. nov. is characterized by a large mesosoma, a non-convex first gastral tergite, an evenly acute calcar, a 5-segmented antennal funicle, a head lacking occipital carina and facial grooves and a long fore wing with distinctly delimited speculum, a bare admarginal area with a distinct admarginal row of setae on the underside and with 3 setal tracks (hair rows) radiating from the apex of the stigmal vein.
