The LASPEYRESIELLA-group Apanteles albinervis Tobias, 1964 - Mesonotum with very fine and superficial punctation, interspaces shiny to polished and usually greater than size of punctures. First tergite strongly narrowing behind, nearly twice wider at base than apically. Metacarp longer than stigma. Nervellus of hind wing incurved. Stigma bright yellow. Tibiae with a basal yellow ring. - Distribution: USSR (European part, Kazakhstan, Azerbaidzhan), Hungary. Our country is its westernmost region of distribution; new to our fauna. Localities: - 1 $>: Baja, Buvat. 1 <$: Gyula, csatornapart. 1 g + 1 cf:Gyula, Szanazug. 2 2; Kalocsa, "e caule Conii maculati L.". 1 6: Tiszaszentimre. - VI-IX; 2$: VI-VII, cfcf. VRI-IX. Apanteles laspeyresiella Papp, 1972 - The species was described on the basis of 87 specimens (57 Ç + 3o cf) from Hungary (localities: Keszthely, Nemessándorháza, Szabadföld). Since its description it was collected in four further localities. Recently was observed in Austria (Burgenland). Localities: - 1 $ + 1 <S: Balassagyarmat. 1 2 : Csopak. 1 ç: Izsák, ex Lithocolletis sp. 1 o.: Lovas. - VII. Apanteles isus Nixon, 1965 - Head in dorsal view behind eyes rounded. Nervellus of hind wing below moderately curved. Metacarp only somewhat longer than stigma. Penultimate two joints of antenna subcubic to cubic. Ovipositor sheath in lateral view one-fourth to one-third longer than hind tibia. First tergite distinctly twice broader at base than at apex. Hind tibia yellow, apically infuscate. - Distribution: described from Hungary f'Királyhelmec" near Szeged), reported from Armenia and Uzbeghistan in the USSR. Locality: - 1 2= Siófok.

Apanteles memorabilis Alexeev, 1971, Rev,d'ent. l' URSS, 50: 409, ç cf, locus typicus: precipice Yol-Dere, Hosar Mt., Turkmenia in the USSR, syn.n. Stigma opaque yellow, metacarp dark, venation milky. Tegula pale yellow. Ovipositor sheath in lateral view 1.5-1.6 times longer than hind tibia. Mesonotum and scutellum with pubescence unusual to the European Apanteles species. First tergite moderately narrowing apically, its basal width 1.7-2 times greater than apical width, rl twice as long as cuqul, metacarp as long as stigma. Mesonotum with distinct punctation, punctures somewhat crowded along notaulix. - Distribution: reported from several countries of the Palaearctic Region from Sweden and Hungary as far eastwards as Kazakhstan and Mongolia. New to the fauna of Hungary. Localities: - 1 cf: Dömsöd, Apajpuszta, 1 d: Békéscsaba, ex Homoeosoma nebulellum D. et Sch. 18 X. 1967, leg. et educ. Z.

Metacarp only 2.5 times longer than distance between distal end of metacarp and tip of radial cell. Mesonotum with less dense and sharper punctation than in A. meruloides , interspaces rather shiny. 16-17th joints of antenna cubic to almost cubic. First tergite black. - Distribution: Europe. Localities: - Transylvania (Romania): 1 cf: Kükiillövár (= Cetatea de Balta). 1 g : Szászkézd (= Saschiz). - VII. Apanteles meruloides Nixon, 1965 - Closely related to A. merula Reinhard. Metacarp 33.25 times longer than distance between distal end of metacarp and tip of radial cell. Mesonotum with dense and almost confluent punctation, interspaces dull. 16-17th joints of antenna 1.2-1.3 times longer than broad. First tergite black though frequently reddish to rusty at base. - Distribution: Turkey, Jordan and Transylvania (Romania). Locality: - 1 J: Szászkézd (= Saschiz, Transylvania).
