Microgaster nobilis Reinhard, 1880 Closely related to M. hungarica Szépl. The differences between the two species are given in my key (PAPP 1976). - Distribution: Listed from Germany, France, Spain, Hungary and the European part of the USSR. Localities. 2 g + 7 ff: Ágasegyháza. 1 ff: Budapest, Józsefváros. 1 S: Zamárdl. - VII, 2 j + 9 6*. Microgaster novicia Marshall, 1885 Costal abscissa of n.bas. unusually short, at most one-quarter as long as median abscissa. Inner margin of eye parallel. Hind claw below at base with a spine. - Distribution: Europe and the USA. In Hungary collected mainly in lowland (Pannonicum)

Microgaster parvistriga Thomson, 1895 Head in dorsal view relatively less transverse, more or less subcublc. Body less robust in comparison to M. subcompleta. Tergite 1 about as long as wide at hind, together with tergite 2 weakly rugose. - Distribution: Northern half of Europe. Localities. Hungary. 1 g: Bakonybél, Szömörkés. 3 g: Csévharaszt. 1 cf: Egyek, Ohati erdő. 1 g: Ujszentmargita. 1 8: Zamárdl. - Transylvania (Roumania). 1 o: Bánffytelep, Fiadvölgy. VI-VII, 5 o_ + 2 ff". Microgaster postica Nees, 1834 (? = M. ruficoxis Ruthe, 1858) Lateral side of first tergite distinctly sinuate. The colour of Its legs and sternites is conspicuously characteristic for this species. Coxae, trochanters and sternites 1-2 pale yellow, otherwise legs and sternites 3-7 vivid yellow to yellow. Last 3-4 sternites more or less darkening to black. Tegula bright yellow. Ovipositor sheath a little shorter than half third tibia. - Distribution: Reported sporadically from England, Belgium, the Netherlands, France, Germany and recently from Hungary. Locality. 1 g: Bakonybél, turistaház. Microgaster procera Ruthe, 1860 Ocelli large and very near to each other, distance between fore and a hind ocellus at most as long as, usually shorter than, half diameter of an ocellus. - Distribution: Reported from a few western and central European countries (Ireland, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Finland). Localities. 1 ff: Bősárkány. 1 o_ + 5 ff: Csévharaszt, nyíres. 1 ci: Egyek, Ohati erdő. 3 ff: Lasztonya, Borshely. 1 g: Kudu. - VI-VII, 2 o + 10 ó.

. 2:251, p, syn.n. The above shynonymy is based on the examination and comparison of the types; a female paratype of P. meges was kindly lent to me by Mr. T. HUDDLESTON (British Museum, London). The name meges is an evident junior synonym of my rugosicoxa. Outer surface of hind coxa rugose, below tending to be rugulose to almost smooth. Face with distinct punctation, interspaces shiny, dl shorter than d2. As I have previously pointed out (PAPP 1976) M. rugosicoxa represents a transitional form between the genera Microgaster and Protomicroplitis. - Distribution: A rare species, hitherto known from Hungary, Austria, Switzerland and Italy. In Hungary collected in five localities. Localities. 3 ff (1 ff paratype): Budapest, Hármashatárhegy. 1 é': Budapest, Hársbokorhegy. 1 g (holotype): Őrszentmiklós, Dukaihegy. 1 ff (allotype): Tihany. 1 cf: Veszprém, Gulyadomb, swept from Festucetum pallentis. - V-VII and X, 1 g + 6 cf. Microgaster stictica Ruthe, 1858 Tergite 2 less broadening behind, at most 2.2-2.4 times (gg) and 1.9-2.4 times (off) as long as wide at hind. Stigma relatively narrow, 2.5-2.6 times longer than wide. Antennái joints 16-17 somewhat barrel-shaped (gg). Inner margin of eyes parallel. - Distribution: Ranged from NW
