Cirrospilus

Female Cirrospilus vittatus, from HymIS.

Belongs within: Eulophinae.

Cirrospilus is a cosmopolitan genus of wasps developing as parasites or hyperparasites of leaf-miners, small sheltered larvae, pupae or eggs, often developing in galls on leaves of various plants (Bouček 1988).

Characters (from Bouček 1988): Body mostly with yellow pattern or if thorax completely dark then propodeum distinctly reticulate; male scape rarely enlarged; mesothorax dorsally often raised-reticulate; notaular grooves posteriorly almost straight, ending at inner angles of moderately advanced axillae, i.e. close to scutellar margin; scutellum with submedian and sublateral grooves, hind pair of scutellar bristles close to hind margin of scutellum; postmarginal vein hardly ever longer than stigmal vein; petiole very short.

Elachertus

Elachertus sp., from here.

Belongs within: Eulophinae.

Elachertus is a diverse and cosmopolitan genus of wasps developing as endo- or ectoparasites of small caterpillars. Members of Elachertus may have either a petiolate or sessile gaster, and the funicle may be 4- or 5-segmented; in general, they lack raised reticulation on the mesoscutum (Bouček 1988).

Eulophinusia

Female antenna, thorax and gaster of Eulophinusia cydippe, from Bouček (1988).

Belongs within: Eulophini.

Eulophinusia is a genus of parasitic wasps found in Australia; where known, hosts are small moths.

Characters (from Bouček 1988): Body length up to 1.5 mm, dorsal thorax and face often with yellow pattern; antennae in both sexes simple, short, flagellum not distinctly clavate, funicular segments 2 to 4 transverse; notauli incomplete; scutellum without sublateral grooves, bare except for 4 setae, often broader than long, axillae wide apart, narrow and strongly advanced; gaster dorsally collapsing.

Chrysocharis sp., from here.

Belongs within: Eulophidae.
Contains: Pleurotroppopsis, Apleurotropis, Omphale, Pediobius, Chrysonotomyia, Pseudomphale, Closterocerus, Entedon.

The Entedoninae are a group of eulophid wasps characterised by the presence of only a single pair of bristles on the scutellum, and a generally tapering submarginal vein on the forewing with a reduced number of bristles that does not usually smoothly connect to the parastigma (Bouček 1988).

Characters (from Bouček 1988): Frontal grooves usually of an X-shape; notaular grooves modified (not simply groove-like); scutellum usually with only one pair of setae, paired grooves absent; propodeum with simple spiracle placed near to metanotal margin and surrounded at least anteriorly by a groove, postero-lateral corners reduced, often blunt, so that metapleuron is partly visible dorsally. Forewing with submarginal vein usually tapering distally, broken off the broad base the of parastigma, bearing usually only 2 dorsal bristles; stigmal vein mostly very short, postmarginal vein frequently short though mostly distinct, only rarely absent.

Diaulomorpha

Body of female Diaulomorpha itea, from Bouček (1988).

Belongs within: Eulophinae.

Diaulomorpha is a genus of parasitoid wasps known from Australasia and South America. Known hosts include tenthredinid leaf-miners and small caterpillars (Bouček 1988).

See also: The life and times of Diaulomorpha.

Characters (from Bouček 1988): Antennae inserted slightly above lower ocular line; flagellum filiform, rather broad in both sexes, segments often tending to be laterally compressed, male antenna not branched; funicle 3- or 4-segmented in females, 4-segmented in males; sensilla and hairs rather fine. Thorax rather weakly vaulted; pronotum usually rather short; mesoscutum, scutellum and axillae bearing regular and conspicuous reticulation, finer on scutellum and axillae than on mesoscutum; notauli weak but usually complete notauli; axillae strongly advanced; scutellum with distinct sublateral grooves; scutellum and axillae bearing fine but conspicuous reticulation; propodeum with a strong median carina forming a distinct T-shape with the raised anterior margin of the sclerite, and submedian convexities reachind hind margin of spiracle. Wings always fully developed. Gaster sessile, more or less broadly lanceolate, collapsing dorsally.

Pleurotroppopsis

Pleurotroppopsis lankensis, from CSIRO.

Belongs within: Entedoninae.

Pleurotroppopsis is a genus of wasps, found in Africa, southern Asia and Australasia, that paratise leaf-mining larvae of Coleoptera and Lepidoptera (Bouček 1988).

Characters (from Bouček 1988): Pronotum with conspicuous collar edge or carina; scutellum with distinct sublateral grooves, conspicuous at least in anterior half, without distinct median groove; pilosity of scutellum reduced to single pair of bristles in posterior quarter; propodeum with median carina and subparallel plicae.

Entedon

Female Entedon, from here.

Belongs within: Entedoninae.

Entedon is a cosmopolitan genus of wasps that are mostly parasites of beetle larvae burrowing in plant stems or galls (Bouček 1988).

Characters (from Bouček 1988): Head and thorax strongly sclerotised, conspicuously reticulate, pilosity reduced to very few setae; these are conspicuous, strong, but only 2 pairs of them on mid lobe of mesoscutum. Antennae relatively short, in both sexes the flagellum with only one anellus and 5 conspicuous segments, the terminal 2 often, especially in all females, closely united into clava. Tentorial pits not distinct; clypeus transverse, often broad, its lower margin often more or less produced and almost always margined by a shallow groove. Upper margin of occiput forming a rectangular edge which is often sharply carinate. Pronotum medially reduced, non-carinate, but laterally forming a bristle-bearing subconical projection. Notauli not well defined in posterior half, axillae not distinctly advanced. Scutellum convex, without any grooves, also at apex without admarginal groove (occasionally a median groove is suggested anteriorly by finer meshes of sculpture). Propodeum with distinct median carina set in a groove-like depression, the submedian areas convex, mostly smooth, rarely reticulate; spiracle on an elevated area which bears a lateral subconical projection behind the spiracle, elevation is delimited laterally and anteriorly by a deep curving groove which may continue inside by a depression where normally a plica would be; the depression is posteriorly connected by a grooved supracoxal flange with the groove outside of the median carina. Female gaster often sessile or shortly petiolate, in males the petiole is distinctly longer, often distinctly elongate.
