Name

Kriechbaumerella Dalla Torre, 1897 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

• Coleops Kriechbaumer, 1894b: 316–317. Type species (by monotypy): Coleops palpebratus Kriechbaumer, 1894. Preoccupied by Coleops Blyth, 1849.
• Kriechbaumerella Dalla Torre, 1897: 84. Replacement name for Coleops Kriechbaumer.
• Eucepsis Steffan, 1953: 8, 12. Type species (by original designation): Stomatoceras magrettii Kirby, 1886. Synonymised with Kriechbaumerella Dalla Torre by Narendran (1984).

Diagnosis

This genus is similar to the genera Antrocephalus and Hockeria, but differs mainly in having the ventral margin of the teeth of the hind femur three-lobed or typically wavy and in Hockeria the frontal carina is not horseshoe-shaped.

Description

Face with prominent horseshoe-shaped carina (as in Antrocephalus) running behind anterior ocellus; pronotum with carinae restricted to lateral third, medially not turning backwards or projecting as tubercles; apex of scutellum usually bi-dentate; ventral margin of wide hind femur with ventral margin of teeth three lobed; PMV always longer than STV; metasoma sessile.

Hosts

Parasitoids of pupae of Lepidoptera.

Distribution

Asia, Europe and Africa.
