Further details see at couplet 157 (158) and 155 (156) A. propinquus PAPP and A. reicharti PAPP 162 (161) At most penultimate joint of antenna subcubic to cubic. Mesonotum shiny or subshiny. 163 (164) Hind third of first tergite distinctly narrowing. First tergite with scattered small punctures, second tergite almost smooth to entirely smooth. A member of the lineipes-group [A. subemarginatus ABDINBEKOVA, 1969] 164 (163) First tergite parallel- or subparallel-sided, not narrowing posteriorly. 165 (166) Body gracile, 2 mm long (Çr/). First tergite twice longer than wide at hind, its hind third gradually narrowing. Second tergite two-and-a-half times broader than long. Mesonotum with dense and discrete punctation. Ovipositor sheath as long as hind tibia. Face subquadrate, ratio of its height to lower width as 18 : 22 ( X 100). rl emitting from middle of stigma. Head and thorax black, abdomen brown, first tergite blackish brown. Dark colour of legs brown. — Nearctic Region (Maine, Ontario) A. thujae MUSEBECK, 1935 (!) 166 (165) Body stout or strong, at least 3 mm long. First tergite at most 1.6 times longer than wide at hind and rather feebly narrowing. Second tergite 3.5-4 times broader than long. Ovipositor sheath three-quarters as long as third tibia, rl emitting more or less from distal half of stigma. 167 (168) Head behind eyes strongly constricted (Fig. 177). Mesonotum shiny, with shallow and fine punctation, interspaces about size of punctures or slightly greater. First tergite with characteristic sides, anteriorly feebly arched, posteriorly parallel (Fig. 178). Stalk of D\ short, at most as long as its own width; stigma distinctly more than twice as long as wide (45 : 18, x 100), and emitting rl visibly from its distal half (Fig. 179). Spines of outer surface of third tibia less numerous and not closely-set. Head, thorax and first tergite black, abdomen dark brown to brown. Light colour of legs rather pale. Stigma without any distal pale spot. 9 : 3 mm. — Hungary A. furtim PAPP, 1977 (!!) 168 (167) Head behind eyes rounded as normal. Mesonotum faintly dull to dull, with dense and rather strong punctation, interspaces smaller than punctures. First tergite with subparallel to slightly converging sides (Fig. 146). Stalk of Di long, almost twice longer than its own width; stigma hardly more than twice as long as wide (50 : 23-22, x 100), and emitting rl near to middle of stigma (Fig. 150). Spines of outer surface of third tibia extremely numerous and closely-set (reminding that of A. princeps WILK, (Fig. 151). Body black. Light colour of legs yellow to dark yellow. Stigma often with a pale and rather indistinct distal spot. 9 : 3 mm. See also couplet 125 (126) A. cheles Nix. 169 (160) Ovipositor sheath distinctly, usually one-and-a-half times, longer than third tibia. Body, in majority of species, strong to stout, over 3 mm in length. 170 (179) Legs, except black coxae, either entirely reddish yellow or only third femur with black patterns. 171 (172) Third femur with black patterns. Proximal quarter of second femur usually, distal third or half of hind tibia, and entire hind tarsus always black or blackish. First tergite 1.25-1.4 times longer than broad at rear (Fig. 114). Temples constricted (Fig. 113). Further details see at couplet 102 (103) A. faucula Nix.
