1. A NEW SPECIES OF ORMOCERUS WALKER (HYMENOPTERA: PTEROMALIDAE) FROM NORTH AMERICA AND A RANGE EXPANSION FOR ORMOCERUS LATUS WALKER.

Author

MORIN, HILLARY D., MIKÓ, ISTVÁN, and GATES, MICHAEL

Abstract

Ormocerus dirigoius Morin & Gates, n. sp. is described and compared to the North American O. americanus Dzhanokmen and Grissell and European species O. latus Walker and O. vernalis Walker. A range expansion into the Nearctic is reported for O. latus, previously only known from the Palearctic. Specimens were collected in Harpswell, Maine during a study of the parasitic Hymenoptera community associated with Operophtera brumata Linnaeus (Lepidoptera: Geometridae), an invasive species. The species are keyed and illustrated using macrophotography and scanning electron microphotography. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Neaylax versicolor (Hymenoptera, Cynipidae), which forms galls on fumitory ( Fumaria ), is attacked in Spain by Rivasia fumariae , a species of Pteromalidae (Hymenoptera, Chalcidoidea) herein described as new and assigned to a new genus. The new genus has an unusual combination of morphological characters but seems best placed in the pteromalid subfamily Ormocerinae. An account is given of the biology and larval morphology of the new species. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
