Ordo: Hymenoptera
Familia: Ichneumonidae
Genus: Dolichomitus
Name
Dolichomitus mandibularis (Uchida) – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Ephialtes mandibularis Uchida, 1932: 160.
- Dolichomitus mandibularis: Townes, Momoi & Townes, 1965: 19.
Remarks
Relatively small species among members of the mandibularis group, with fore wing length 15mm or less. This species differs from D. khasianus and D. flavicrus sp. n. by the underside of the metasoma being not entirely blackish (Fig. 1g), with whitish membranous areas adjacent to sternites, and by its reddish fore and mid coxae (Fig. 5) and brown hind femur which is obviously darker than fore and mid femora (in the latter two species almost entirely yellow to reddish yellow).
Length
Fore wing 11–15mm in ♀, 11–13 mm in ♂.
