Ordo: Hymenoptera
Familia: Braconidae
Name
Cratospila Foerster, 1863 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Cratospila Foerster, 1863: 265; Shenefelt. 1974[1]: 985; Wharton 1980[2]: 84; Tobias 1990[3]; Belokobylskij 1998[4]: 287; Zhu et al. 2017[5]: 60. Type species (by monotypy): Alysia circe Haliday, 1838.
- Hedylus Marshall, 1891: 14–15 (not Foerster, 1868); Papp 2009[6]: 29–30 (as synonym of Cratospila because of the synonymising of both type species). Type species (by monotypy): Hedylus habilis Marshall, 1894 (examined; = Alysia circe Haliday, 1838).
Notes
The genus can be identified by using the illustrated key to the Chinese genera of Alysiini by Zhu et al. (2017)[5]. The Cratospila species treated in this paper have the apical half of ♀ antenna with 8–13 white segments (unknown of C. syntoma sp. nov., but it has a largely yellowish-brown head, morphologically related to C. ejuncida sp. nov., and has according to the COI analysis a derived position compared with the other species); apex of antenna white, if dark brown then antennal white part 2.5–5.0 times as long as apical dark part of antenna. Papp (1994)[7] reported Cratospila circe from North Korea, which is most likely a misidentification because this species is found so far only in the Western Palaearctic, and in the Eastern Palaearctic region there are several similar species. Cratospila circe can be separated from the new species described here by having the pale part of the female antenna either absent or present by a few whitish, greyish or ivory segments. and the pale part is 0.7–1.8 times as long as apical dark part of antenna.
Biology
