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

Abdomen subsessile, covered with large dimpled punctures, except apical half of terga and sterna smooth or nearly so. Sides of seventh tergum parallel; deeply but narrowly incised apically, with the lobes situated horizontal to longitudinal axis (Fig. 68). Lateroterga of last tergum strongly sclerotized above, also incised apically and produced in a second pair of epipygial spines under the first (Figs 67, 68). Upcurved spine of hypopygium rather short and wide. Female and biology unknown. Material: Holotype male from YEMEN, specimen on pin, genitalia on recticard, labelled: "Jemen, Wadi Zabid, FAO Camp." and "1970. VI-VII. Leg. SZALAI-M.". Holotype deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest; Hym. Typ. No. 6957. - Paratypes: 1 male from ISRAEL, labelled: "Israel, Kefar Yeroham, 19. VII. 1961, Leg. BYTINSKI-SALZ" and "Meria aegyptiaca GUER., det. Dott. D. GUIGLIA", in Tel Aviv University; 1 male from EGYPT, labelled: "Moses-Quellen, H.-I. Sinai", in Coll. ARGAMAN. Variation: The genitalia of holotype male are entirely soft, not sclerotized, its structure cannot be compared with those of the paratypes. The paratypes are of 10.5 and 12.2 mm body length. In Israeli specimens the gular carina is not produced in a spine, instead the margin of latero-ventral pronotal lobe overlaps the tignar sulcus almost entirely. Propleuron is similarly inflated in the paratypes but does not produce in a vertical lamella anteriorly, as this is developed so in the holotype. The upcurved spine of subgenital plate is considerably much shorter and broader in paratypes. The peculiar shape of epipygium is unique in the family Myzinidae. Yooloa vircola sp. n.
