Argaman, Q.: Generic synopsis of Myzinidae (Hymenoptera: Scolioidea)

ons, pits or foveolae, very often flanked by prominent ridges or carinae (Figs 21-22). Female outer eye orbit with a rather compact row of minute setigerous punctures. 8 (9) Male mid coxa, in ventral view (Fig. 10), produced on inner side in a dorso-ventrally flattened, semicircular and sharp keel or lobe. Female pronotal declivity without dense patch of micropunctures mesally; medio-dorsal ridge of mandible developed on basal half or less (Fig. 9). - Nearctic Region. Type-species: Myzine frontalis CRESSON, 1875 Keyovaska gen. n. 9 (8) Male mid coxa straight on inner side, not produced (Fig. 20). Female pronotal declivity provided with a rather dense patch of micropunctures mesally; medio-dorsal ridge of mandible developed up to apical third or more (Fig. 13). 10 (11) Male terga 2-6 provided with a deep colpus, viz. a pocket-like invagination; sterna 3-4 with a lateral gradulus (Fig. 14). Female lateral propodeum smooth, polished and shining mirror-like, micropunctate on sides, with no trace of costulae; tignar sulcus separated from lateral pronotum by a sharp ridge. - Nearctic Region. Type-species: Tiphia namea FABRICIUS, 1805 Plesia JURINE, 1807 11 (10) Male terga without colpus; sterna with no gradulus. Female lateral propodeum obliquely costulate throughout; tignar sulcus separated from lateral pronotum by a blunt ridge. 12 (13) Male mid coxa, on apex of its inner-ventral edge, produced in an outwardly directed sharp and acute tubercle (Fig. 12). Female pygidial area irregularly rugulose or confusedly striolate, with apical stripe shagreened (cf. Fig. 7). - Nearctic and Neotropic Regions. Type-species: Plesia sexmaculata GUERIN, 1838 Tokoparta gen. n. 13 (12) Male mid coxa on apex of its inner-ventral edge not produced (Fig 20). Female pygidial area wholly, regularly striolate lengthwise (cf. Fig. 3). 14 (15) Male trochanter of hind leg, on ventral aspect, straight and perfectly flat, produced apically in a conspicuous tubercle (Fig. 16); frontal lobe separated from the front by an oblique, deep and polished furrow (Fig. 15). Female sterna 2-4 between apical margin and subapical row of large setigerous punctures provided with numerous transverse rows of isolated minute punctures (Fig. 17). - Neotropic Region. Type-species: Myzine elegáns B

URMEISTER, 1876 Fikoplesa gen. n. 15 (14) Male trochanter of hind leg, on ventral aspect, globular and arcuate, inconspicuously produced apically (Fig. 23); frontal lobe continuous to front (Fig. 19). Female sterna 2-4 between apical margin and subapical row of large punctures with only one row of minute, transversely coalescent punctures (Fig. 18). 16 (17) Mesoscutal notauli transversely costulate in both sexes; if sometimes weakly so in females, the prespiracular area of propodeal disc always delicately aciculate. - Nearctic and Neotropic Regions. Type-species: Tiphia maculata FABRICIUS, 1793 Myzinum LATREILLE, 1803 17 (16) Male unknown; female mesoscutal notauli smooth, without transverse costulae; longitudinal carinules of metapleuron continuous dorsally, covering entire prespiracular area of propodeum (Fig. 11). - Neotropic Region. Type-species: Myzine robusta BURMEISTER, 1876 Ekepirka gen. n. 18 (1) Abdominal articulation constituted only of sternum (Figs 36-37, 46, 50-51), tergum abbreviated and reduced to a ribbon-like band covering sternal petiole; in female this stripe being separated in a distinct sclerite; first lateroterga far removed from the point of articulation. Male acetabular carina wholly consolidated to mesosternum. Hypostoma never intersect occipital carina. Old World.
