3 (4) Propodeum and tergites 1-2 rugose. Hind coxa and trochanter reddish yellow. Head behind eye contracted. 9 : (2-)3 mm. Representing suevus-group. — Sporadic in the western Palaearctic Region [A. suevus REINHARD, 1880 (!!)] 4 (3) Propodeum smooth, shiny, exceptionally at most uneven; tergite 1 on its hind half uneven to rugulose, tergite 2 smooth. Hind coxa and trochanter never reddish yel­low. Head behind eye rounded. A member of laevigatus-group, see PAPP 1978: 271­273, couplets 29 (28)-3 1 (30) [A. seriphia NIXON, 1972 (!!)] 5 (2) First tergite either subparallel to parallel sided and narrowing behind to various degrees (Figs. e.g. 147, 150, 153), or with more or less arched sides and broadest at about its middle (Figs. e.g. 173, 182). 6 (7) rl not directing towards tip of wing, i.e. rather perpendicular to longitudinal axis of stigma. First tergite narrowing distinctly at its hind half. 9c/ : 2.5-3 mm. A member of the metacarpalis-group, though some features resembling those of the butalidis­group. — USSR: Armenia [A. znoikoi TOBIAS, 1976 (!!)] 7 (6) rl directing towards tip of wing, i.e. emitting obliquely from, or not perpendicular to longitudinal axis of, stigma (Figs. e.g. 151, 154, 176). First tergite subparallel-sided and more or less narrowing at its hind third to fourth (Figs. e.g. 147, 150, 153), or with arched sides (Figs. e.g. 173, 182, 183). 8 (25) Propodeum smooth to uneven (Figs. 45,48, 49), at most rugulose close above lunule or on its side. 9 (16) Inner margin of eyes distinctly converging towards oral part, i.e. face one-fifth wider close below scape than close above clypeus (Figs. 46, 47, 50, 142, 145, 149, 152). 10 (21) Head in frontal view, in comparison to next three species, appearing rather elongated i.e. as broad between eyes as high medially (Figs. 46, 142). Glossa long, about half as long as basitarsus of fore leg. Ocelli small, forming a very low triangle: hind im­aginary tangent to anterior ocellus transecting posterior pair of ocelli (Fig. 143). Penultimate joint of antenna 1.2-1.4 times as long as broad, rl more or less longer than cuqul, stigma usually thrice, exceptionally 2.3-2.4 times, longer than wide (Fig. 140). Ovipositor sheath about as long as hind tibia, hypopygium surpassing end of abdomen (Fig. 144). First tergite narrowing posteriorly, second tergite con­spicuously transverse (Fig. 141). Tegula yellow. Q*9 : 2.5-2.8 mm. — Hungary, Austria, Bulgaria A. szaboiPAPP, 1972 (!!) 11 (10) Head in frontal view, in comparison to previous species, appearing rather transverse, i.e. distinctly broader between eyes than high medially (Figs. 47, 50, 145, 149, 152). Glossa short, much shorter than half basitarsus of fore leg. Ocelli small, though form­ing a less low triangle: hind imaginary tangent to anterior ocellus before, and at most touching, posterior pair of ocelli (Fig. 146). 12 (13) Second tergite less narrow and less strongly pointed laterally; third tergite at most one-and-a-half, usually 1.2-1.3, times as long as second tergite; first tergite rather rounded apically (Fig. 147). Ovipositor sheath as long as hind tibia, relatively thicken­ed (Fig. 148). Disc of mesonotum shiny and with an extremely faint punctation. Coxae and trochanters either yellow or reddish to rusty brown, i.e. never black. 9ö* : 2.3-2.7 mm. — Crete, Hungary, Azerbaidzhan (USSR), Mongolia A. urgo NIXON, 1965 (!!) 13 (12) Second tergite narrow and more strongly pointed laterally; third tergite nearly twice to twice as long as second tergite, first tergite rather narrowing apically (Figs. 150,
