Etymology. - The new species is dedicated to my good friend and colleague, Dr. GYÖRGY TOPÁL, mammalogist (Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest), an ardent collector of insects too. Distribution: India (Indo-Malayan Region). The new species, Blacus (Ganychorus) topali sp. n., runs to B. (G) fulviceps VAN ACHTERBERG, 1988 (Nepal) and B. (G.) signicornis VAN ACHTERBERG, 1988 (Thailand) with the help of VAN ACHTERBERG'S identification key to the Indo-Malayan species of the subgenus Ganychorus HALIDAY (genus Blacus NEES) (VAN ACHTERBERG 1988: 85-89); the three species are separated with a modified section (couplets 9-10) of VAN ACHTERBERG'S key (1988): 1 (2) Propodeum without median areola posteriorly. Second and third tergites ivory coloured. Alar membrane around vein r of fore wing brownish fumous. First tergite (sub-)parallel-sided. Antenna of female with 21 antennomeres. Head yellowish brown. Pterostigma dark brown. $ : 3.2 mm B. (G.) fulviceps VAN ACHTERBERG, 1988 2 (1) Propodeum with a narrow and long postero-median areola (Fig. 17). Second and third tergites brown. Alar membrane around vein r of fore wing not brownish fumous. 3 (4) Antenna of female conspicuously broadened submedially, its four last antennomeres pale yellowish. Fore claw pectinate ($). First discoidal cell of fore wing widely truncate anteriorly (Fig. 21: arrow ). Third antennomere 1.9 times as long as fourth antennomere. Ptero- and parastigma light brown. $ : 1.6 mm B. (G.) signicornis VAN ACHTERBERG, 1988 4 (3) Antenna of female not broadened submedially, i.e. slightly thickening distally as usually, its three last antennomeres dark greyish brownish. Fore claw not pectinate ($). First discoidal cell of fore wing truncate anteriorly (Fig. 18: arrow). Third antennomere 1.33 times as long as fourth antennomere. Ptero- and parastigma straw yellow. $ : 2.1 mm B. (G.) topali sp.n. subfamily Alysiinae / Alysiini Alysia (Alysia) luteostigma sp. n. 9 (Figs 22-25) Description of the holotype 9. - Body 3.2 mm long. Head in dorsal view (Fig. 22) transverse, 1.84 times as broad as long, eye just shorter than temple, latter somewhat swollen, i.e. head in dorsal view between temple somewhat broader than between eyes. Ocelli small, OOL:OD:POL as 8:2:5. Mandible about onefourth longer than broad between teeth 1 and 3. Margin between teeth 1 and 2 as well as between 2 and 3 incised (Fig. 23). Head polished, face medially granular-rugose, laterally together with clypeus uneven and shiny. - Antenna one-fourth longer than body, with 38 antennomeres. First flagellomere 1.4 times as long as second flagellomere and 4.4 times as long as broad, further flagellomeres gradually shortening so that penultimate flagellomere twice as long as broad. Mesosoma in lateral view 1.4 times as long as high. Pronotum with a linear transverse impression before suture between pro- and mesonotum. Notaulix distict anteriorly and finely crenulated, posteriorly fading. Medio-posterior pit also linear, crenulated. Mesonotum polished, poorly haired on its declivous part, along notauli a few setae. Propodeum and metanotum medially rugose. Sternaulix crenulated. -Hind femur four times as long as broad distally. Hind tibia and tarsus equal in length. Hind basitarsus as long as tarsal segments 2-4.
