Papp, J.: A revision of the tribe Braconini Ashm. from the Carpathian Basin (Hymenoptera, Braconidae)

genus Pseudoglyptomorpha Tob., on the basis of the genital organs and other features. On a suggestion in his letter (1959), I examined the male genital organs of the above-mentioned species, but I did not find any difference. Gl. impeditor Kok. S t a r y (1957 : 283) enumerates a single collecting locality (Sturovo-Pár­kány, 1937, leg. H o f f e r) within the Carpathian Basin, though he designates the species — after Telenga (1936) — as Euglyptobracon impeditor Kok. I did not see the specimens, but I examined Gl. siculus Marsh., and read the description of Eu glyptomorpha impeditor. (Telenga, 1936 : 105.) Since the Gl. siculus specimens of the Hungarian Natural History Museum agree so much with the description of E. impeditor, and as the detailed characterizations (Fahringer 1928 : 97—98, 202—203 ; Telenga 1936 : 54—55, 105) of GL siculus and E. impeditor are much similar, the latter is presumably synonymus with Gl. siculus Marsh. This seems to be supported by the fact that Gl. siculus was never collected in the Soviet Union (Telenga, 1936 : 54—55) on the one hand and, — apart from Star y's recent datum, — E. impeditor was found only in the Soviet Union on the other. Genus Vipio Latreille, 1805 Key to species 99 1 (6) Metanotum flat or its distal central-base radially rugulose. Coxa 2—3. always reddish­yellow. Abdomen totally reddish-yellow. 2 (5) Distal centre of metanotum radially rugulose (fig. 6.), spotted with, or entirely, black. 3 (4) Body longer than 10 mm. Ovipositor generally twice as long as body : 23—33 mm. Rostrum : 1,3 —1,4 mm. Rugosity of tergite 2. curves outward, rugulose surface scarce­ly extends over distal half of tergite (fig. 5.). Distal half of scutellum black. Metano­tum wholly black. Base of hair brush of clypeus golden yellow, otherwise black. Palpi yellow. Antenna 60—65-jointed. Length 11—14 mm. Range : Europe except in the North, Asia minor, Iran. In the Carpathian Basin, it was collected mostly in the Mat­ricum. A supposedly stenök eremophilous species, with a mesophilous inclination 1. terrefactor Villers, 1779 4 (3) Body shorter than 10 mm. Ovipositor generally as long as body : 8—9 mm. Rostrum short : 0,5—0,6 mm. Longitudinal and somewhat curved rugosity of tergite 2. extends to whole surface. Antenna 45—50-jointed. Distal margin of metanotum reddish-yellow, otherwise black. Scutellum totally reddish-yellow. Hair brush of clypeus golden yellow. Palpi dark. Length 8—9 mm. — Range : North Africa, Central- and Southern-Europe, southern part of East Europe, Central-Asia. In the Carpathian Basin, it was collected mostly in the Pannonicum and the Matricum, but it also occurs in the lower regions of the Carpathicum and in the Illyricum. A stenök eremophilous species 2. intermedins Szépligeti, 1896 5 (2) Metanotum smooth, sometimes rugulose along central line, reddish-yellow. Ovipositor one and a half times as long as body : 10—14 mm. Rostrum short : 0,4—0,5 mm, its colour vary from reddish-black to blackish-red. Palpi reddish-yellow. Antenna 50— 57-jointed. Longitudinal rugosity of tergite 2. extends to almost entire surface. Length 7—10 mm. — Range : Palearcticum. In the Carpathian Basin, it was collected mostly in the Pannonicum and in the Matricum. A supposedly stenök eremophilous species 3. appellator Nees, 1834 a (b) No proximal-central black spot on mesonotum. Black spot of vertex extends only onto triangle formed by ocelli. Plate of tergite 1. roughly rugulose in con­trast with nominate species. Range : Collected up to now in the Soviet Union and the Carpathian Basin (Pannonicum). A new variety in the fauna of the Carpathian Basin appellator var. mendax Kokujev 1898
