Some new aphid Parasitoids (Hymenoptera : Aphidiidae) from Kashmir, India

Parasitoids (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae) of Northeastern Iran: Aphidiine-Aphid-Plant Associations, Key and Description of a New Species

“…Pauesia hazratbalensis Bhagat was recorded from Iran as a rare lowland species in association with C. tujafilina (Starý et al 2005). On the basis of a very characteristic spatulated ovipositor sheath, the species was placed previously into the distinct subgenus Kashmirpauesia (Bhagat 1981), but the validity of generic subdivision was disputed by Sanchis et al (2001). However, it may still be of interest to investigate possible relationships of this species to other representatives with spatulated ovipositor sheaths from the Russian Far East.…”

A new species of genus Monoctonus (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Aphidiinae) from South Korea

“…It was stored in 95% ethyl alcohol at -19℃. The identity and morphological characters of the specimen were compared with those described in Starý and Schlinger (1967) , Starý and González (1978) , Bhagat (1981) , van Achterberg (1989) , Jorge Tizado (1992) , Pike et al (2000) , Tomanović et al (2002) , Čkrkić et al (2019) and Čkrkić et al 2020 . We used a dissecting microscope (OLYMPUS SZX16, Leica M205C, NIKON SMZ 1500), followed by a DNA extraction.…”
