than broad. Ocelli forming a rather high triangle; hind imaginary tangent to fore ocellus hardly touching or at most touching hind two ocelli (Fig. 111). Disc of mesonotum punctured, interspaces posteriorly slightly extending, with faint satine sheen (Fig. 22). Two spurs of hind tibia equal in length, either clearly reaching (European representatives) or nearly as long as (Mongolian representatives) half basitarsus. Ovipositor sheath as long as two-thirds to half hind tibia. Carpal vein, stigma and metacarp opaque brown, further veins faintly pigmented, wings hyaline. 2.5-2.7 mm. — Finland Hungary, USSR (Turkmenia, Siberia), Mongolia. (= osiris NIXON, 1972, non DeSaeger, 1944) A. nixosiris PAPP, 1976b (!!) 74 (33) Metacarp long, at least somewhat, usually distinctly, longer than stigma; its distance from apex of R at least somewhat, usually distinctly, smaller than its own length (Figs. e.g. 59, 119, 137, 150, 171, 181, 204, 212). 75 (78) Stigma fully yellow. Horizontal half of first tergite with a medio-longitudinal trough. 76 (77) Propodeum punctulated medially and behind at its corner, shiny, without any median areola-like impression. Vannai lobe of hind wing convex. First tergite hardly longer than wide at hind, its sides parallel, together with second tergite rugulo-punctulated. Penultimate two joints of antenna subcubic. Inner spur of third tibia shorter than half basitarsus. Stigma opaque yellow. Legs except coxae reddish yellow. Ç : 2.3-2.4 mm. — USSR: Georgia A. colchicus TOBIAS, 1976a 77 (76) Propodeum above lunule with an areola-like impression, laterally from it ruglose, lateral third on both sides of propodeum smooth to uneven, near to fore margin rugulo-punctulated. Vannai lobe of hind wing rather straight. First tergite distinctly longer than its greatest width, its hind end somewhat constricted, together with second tergite rugulose. Penultimate two joints of antenna one-and-a-half times longer than broad. Inner spur of third tibia as long as half basitarsus. Stigma pellucid yellow. Legs dark, at least femora 2-3 black. Qçf'' 3 mm. A member of the ater-group, however, its vannai lobe at most straight (and not convex) (cf. NIXON 1972). — Nearctic Region [A. polychrosidis VIERECK, 1912[ (!)] 78 (75) Stigma either dark with a pale basal spot or fully dark (brown to blackish brown). 79 (210) Stigma dark (opaque brown to blackish brown) with a distinct pale basal spot which extends on proximal third to fourth of stigma (Figs. e.g. 119, 137, 204, 208). 80 (95) Pale spot at base of stigma either very small and more or less faintly distinct or spot at all hardly distinct (Figs. 59, 105). 81 (82) First and second tergite rugose. r2 as a stub-like vein present at meeting of rl and cuqui similar to representatives of parasitellae-group. Legs almost entirely reddish yellow. 9 : 3 mm. — Nearctic Region A. consimilis VIERECK, 1911 (!) 82 (81) Second tergite at most rugulose, normally smooth. r2 never present as a stublike vein. Legs more or less dark. 83 (86) Dl distinctly wider than high (Fig. 52). 84 (85) First tergite behind constricted. Outer surface of third tibia with dense and rather scale-like spines. Ovipositor sheath short, somewhat shorter than third basitarsus. 9 : 2.6-2.8 mm. Further details see in laevigatus-group 2, a species of metacarpa/is-group. — Hungary [A. coniferoides PAPP, 1972 (! !)]
