  • Identification Key to the Subfamilies of Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera)
    Identification key to the subfamilies of Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera) Gavin Broad Dept. of Entomology, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, UK Notes on the key, February 2011 This key to ichneumonid subfamilies should be regarded as a test version and feedback will be much appreciated (emails to [email protected]). Many of the illustrations are provisional and more characters need to be illustrated, which is a work in progress. Many of the scanning electron micrographs were taken by Sondra Ward for Ian Gauld’s series of volumes on the Ichneumonidae of Costa Rica. Many of the line drawings are by Mike Fitton. I am grateful to Pelle Magnusson for the photographs of Brachycyrtus ornatus and for his suggestion as to where to include this subfamily in the key. Other illustrations are my own work. Morphological terminology mostly follows Fitton et al. (1988). A comprehensively illustrated list of morphological terms employed here is in development. In lateral views, the anterior (head) end of the wasp is to the left and in dorsal or ventral images, the anterior (head) end is uppermost. There are a few exceptions (indicated in figure legends) and these will rectified soon. Identifying ichneumonids Identifying ichneumonids can be a daunting process, with about 2,400 species in Britain and Ireland. These are currently classified into 32 subfamilies (there are a few more extralimitally). Rather few of these subfamilies are reconisable on the basis of simple morphological character states, rather, they tend to be reconisable on combinations of characters that occur convergently and in different permutations across various groups of ichneumonids.

  • Subfamily Gnamptodontinae
    SUBFAMILY GNAMPTODONTINAE M. J. SHARKEY1, R. A. WHARTON2 1. Hymenoptera Institute, 116 Franklin Ave., Redlands, California, USA, [email protected]. 2. Retired, formerly at Texas A&M University. INTRODUCTION. The subfamily Gnamptodontinae was established by van Achterberg (1983a) to accommodate a small group of species variously placed with the Opiinae, the Rogadinae (in the broad sense), or the Exothecinae (Marsh, 1979).There are three New World genera including Exodontiella Wharton, 1978 which was included in the Opiinae chapter in the last version of the Manual of New World Genera (Wharton et al., 1997). Two exclusively Old World genera, Gnaptogaster Tobias, 1976 and Neognamptodon Belokobylskij, 1999 are also included in the subfamily. The use of the names Gnamptodon Haliday and Gnamptodontinae (rather than the widely used Gnaptodon and Gnaptodontinae) is based on Opinion 1424 (1987) of the Commission on Zoological Nomenclature. Van Achterberg (1983a), following Fischer (1972, 1977, 1981) provisionally included Liparophleps Enderlein (= Plesademon Fischer) in the Gnamptodontinae. However, Wharton (1997) confirmed the sexually dimorphic nature of the wing vein pattern, and concurred with Marsh (1976) that Liparophleps is a synonym of Semirhytus Szépligeti and belongs in Doryctinae. PHYLOGENY. The presence of Hagen's glands suggested a relationship to opiines (Buckingham and Sharkey, 1988), but gnamptodontines parasitize leaf-mining lepidopterans rather than cyclorrhaphous Diptera. Zaldívar-Riverón et al. (2006) recovered Gnamptodontinae in a clade consisting of Telengaiinae, Exothecinae, Alysiinae, Opiinae, and Braconinae in most analyses, with Gnamptodontinae and Telengaiinae resolved as sister taxa. Wharton et al. (2006) found Gnamptodontinae sister to either Braconinae or a clade consisting of Alysiinae, Opiinae, and Exothecinae.

G r i i t i t h s 1 The Alysiinae (Hym. Braconidae) parasites of the Agromyzidae (Diptera) VII. Supplement1 Witli 3 text figures Introduction The main body of information on the Alysiinae (mostly Dacnusini) as parasites of the Agromyzidae in Europe remains my 1964 — 68 series of papers in this journal under the title “The Alysiinae parasites of the Agromyzidae”. This treated the parasites of all genera of Agromyzidae except Phytobia L io y ( = Dendromyza H e n d e l ), whose larvae feed in the cambium of trees and have rarely been reared. The occasion of the deposition of my European collection of Alysiinae, on which my published work was partly based, in the British Museum (Natural History) prompts me to publish this supplement. Included are the descriptions of ten new species which were reared too late for inclusion in my previous work, together with additional rearing records which extend the known host range or geographical distribution of the parasite species. I have also given selective corrections of host records in cases where the nomenclatural changes resulting from recent research on agromyzid taxonomy may be confusing to hymenopterists. Also one case where my identification of a parasite requires correction has come to light. Since 1968 little additional information on the life-history of the Alysiinae as parasites of the Agromyzidae has been published. M ic h a e s k a (1973a, 1973b) has published a block of Polish records for 34 parasite and 28 host species.

Forty-eight specimens were collected in High Montane Dense Ombrophilous Forest area at National Park of Itatiaia, RJ, using four Malaise traps installed, respectively, at four different altitudes. This study is based on a description of two species of Tanycarpa from Colombia, Tanycarpa edithae and Tanycarpa sarmientoi, which are the only species of this genus recognized for the neotropics. Keywords: new species, parasitoid, Tanycarpa, taxonomy.

  • Dacnusa Cicerina (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Alysiinae), a New Species of Endoparasitoid of Liriomyza Cicerina (Diptera: Agromyzidae)
    170 Florida Entomologist 91(2) June 2008 DACNUSA CICERINA (HYMENOPTERA: BRACONIDAE: ALYSIINAE), A NEW SPECIES OF ENDOPARASITOID OF LIRIOMYZA CICERINA (DIPTERA: AGROMYZIDAE) JOSEP TORMOS1, XAVIER PARDO2, JOSEP DANIEL ASÍS1 AND SEVERIANO F. GAYUBO1 1Unidad de Zoología, Facultad de Biología, Universidad de Salamanca, 37071-Salamanca, Spain E-mail: [email protected] 2Universitat de València. Institut Cavanilles de Biodiversitat i Biologia Evolutiva. Apartat Oficial 2085-46071 València, Spain ABSTRACT The larvae, pupa, adults, and venom apparatus of Dacnusa cicerina sp. n., an endoparasi- toid of Liriomyza cicerina (Rondani), found on Cicer arietinum Linnaeus in Spain, are de- scribed, illustrated, and compared with those of allied species. The mature larva of Eurytoma sp., possibly a hyperparasitoid of D. cicerina, also is described, illustrated, and compared with those of allied species. Keys to discriminate adults are provided and morpho- logical structures of phylogenetic value are discussed. The adults of D. cicerina are similar to those of Dacnusa rodriguezi Docavo & Tormos (1997). The immature larvae are similar to those of Dacnusa areolaris (Nees) and Dacnusa dryas (Nixon), and the mature larva is very similar to that of D. dryas, from which it differs in having scale-like sensilla (“setae”) on the thorax and abdomen. The cast skin of the final instar, like those described for Dacnusa Ha- liday, has a pleurostoma with well differentiated mandible processes and a long stipital sclerite. The venom apparatus of this species is very similar to that of Dacnusa flavicoxa Th- omson, differing from it in length of the reservoir and the number of gland filaments. The mature larva of Eurytoma Illiger described here, despite its endoparasitoid nature, has well differentiated pleural and ventral setae.
