7 (4) Second tergite smooth to almost smooth (Figs. 9, 13). 8 (9) Eye in lateral view unusually narrow, temple somewhat wider than width of eye (Fig. 109). Sternaulix impressed and crenulo-rugose (Fig. 10). Nervellus of hind wing oblique and straight (Fig. 194, in Papp 1980). First tergite twice longer than wide at hind, subparallel-sided, i.e. rather indistinctly widening posteriorly (Fig. 196, I.e.). Ovipositor sheath as long as hind tibia, feebly arched. Three preapical joints of antenna cubic. Ocelli small, hind imaginary tangent to fore ocellus at most touching hind two ocelli. Stigma pale brown. Sternites 1-2 laterally vivid yellow. Hind tibia and tarsus infuscate. Q : 2.8-3 mm. — Great Britain, Hungary. (= sevocatus PAPP, 1975, !!) A. trachalus NIXON, 1965 (!!) 9 (8) Eye in lateral view usual in size and wider than temple (Fig. 110). Sternaulix indistinct. Nervellus of hind wing incurved (Fig. 111). First tergite less than twice as long as its hind width (Figs. 112, 114). 10 (11) Ovipositor sheath short, about half as long as hind tibia or hardly longer than hind basitarsus. Tegula black. Metacarp distinctly longer than stigma, latter emitting radial vein distal from its middle; rl longer than cuqul and meeting each other angularly; dl about one-fifth longer than dl (Figs. 18, 113). Penultimate joint of antenna 1.5-1.6 times as long as broad. Mesonotum with discrete punctation, scutellum weakly punctate, shiny (Fig. 12). Postero-lateral field of propodeum smooth, shiny (Fig. 11). Nervellus of hind wing incurved (Fig. Ill I). Spurs of hind tibia equal in length, inner spur shorter than half basitarsus. First tergite relatively broad, (1.3)-1.5 times as long as wide at hind, slightly widening posteriorly, second tergite rectangular (Fig. 112), its surface with a medio-longitudinal feeble crest, otherwise punctate-rugose (Fig. 13). Legs reddish yellow except black coxae and brown first trochanter. Wings hyaline. 9o* : 2.5-2.8 mm. — Europe as far eastwards as Georgia and Daghestan in the USSR. (= Microgaster lacteipennis RATZEBURG, 1852, nec CURTIS, 1830) A. ultor REINHARD, 1881 (!!) 11 (10) Ovipositor sheath long, as long as hind tibia or longer. Tegula reddish yellow to brownish yellow. 12 (13) Metacarp as long as stigma, usually slightly shorter, rl indistinctly longer than cuqul and forming rather an arched vein (Fig. 115). Penultimate joint of antenna 1.4-1.5 times as long as broad. Fields of propodeum smooth to nearly smooth, i.e. with few rugulae. First tergite feebly though distinctly widening distally, one-fifth to onefourth as long as wide at hind (Fig. 114), its hind surface rugulose, shiny Stigma opaque yellow, metacarp brownish (Fig. 115). Tegula vivid reddish yellow. Qrj*: 2.3-2.6 mm. — Kazakhstan, southern part of European USSR A. pallidalatus TOBIAS, 1964 (!!) 13 (12) Metacarp distinctly longer than stigma (25:20), rl longer than cuqul and meeting each other angularly. Penultimate joint of antenna cubic. Fields of propodeum rugose to almost rugose. First tergite parallel-sided, one-third to one-half longer than wide at hind, its hind surface rugose to strongly rugose. Stigma pale brownish with a yellow basal spot. Tegula rather brownish yellow. Q : 2.3-2.7 mm. — Ukraine (Charkov) and Armenia (Yerevan) in the USSR A. jaroshevskyi TOBIAS, 1976* 14 (1) Hind femur blackish brown to black. Fore and middle femora more or less also dark. * I know only the original description (TOBIAS 1976) of this species.
