Occipitotus Singh & van Achterberg gen. nov. (Figures 2–6) Type species: Occipitotus langpramensis Singh & van Achterberg sp. nov. Etymology. The generic name Occipitotus is masculine and refers to the complete occipital carina on the head; “occipit” stands for occipital carina and “totus” (Latin for “complete”). Diagnosis. Antenna with 22–30 flagellomeres (25–30 in female; 22–28 in male), longer than fore wing (Figs 2B, 4B), scapus small, subglobose, shorter ventrally than dorsally; occipital carina complete (Figs 3A, 4C), ventrally straight or slightly curved reaching base of mandible (rarely reduced near base of mandible) and raised into a flange; remaining widely separated from hypostomal carina (Figs 6A–E); hypoclypeal depression deep and small (Fig. 2E); clypeus slightly convex or flat, not protruding beyond the level of the face (Fig. 2A); malar suture obsolescent; pronope large and deep (Figs 3F, 4C); mesoscutum glabrous and shiny; notauli finely crenulate, terminating into rugose area posteriorly (Figs 3B, 4D); vein r of fore wing distinctly oblique and arising from basal 0.4–0.5 of pterostigma; first subdiscal cell of fore wing elongate (Figs 5B, 5D); fore wing vein 1-M of male widened, as wide as or slightly wider than length of cu-a (Fig. 5D); propodeum coarsely rugose-reticulate, with weak median carina anteriorly (Fig. 4D) or entire; dorsal carinae of metasomal tergite I not united medially and tergite coarsely rugosereticulate with (feeble) (Fig. 3C) or without (Fig. 3G) median carina; metasomal tergite II longitudinally striate (nearly) complete (Figs 3C, 4A) or anterior half striate (Fig. 5A); tergite II slightly longer than tergite III, feebly striate antero-laterally (Fig. 4A) or smooth and shiny (Fig. 5A); tergites IV–VI smooth and sparsely setose (Figs 3C, 4A); length of ovipositor sheath 0.5–0.7 times as long as first tergite (Figs 2B, 4A). Biology. Host unknown, but collected from horsetails, Equisetum sp. (Equisetaceae; Fig. 7B) along with an unidentified species of Coleoptera (Chrysomelidae; Fig. 7A); considering the biology of other species of the members of this subfamily Exothecinae, it is likely to be an ectoparasitoid of coleopterous larvae on Equisetum sp. Distribution. Oriental.

Genera included. Adelius Haliday, Carinadelius Ranjith & van Achterberg, gen. nov., Myriola Shestakov reinstated, Paradelius de Saeger, Sinadelius He & Chen, and Sculptomyriola Belokobylskij. Distribution. Cosmopolitan. Biology. Solitary endoparasitoids of leaf-mining Nepticulidae. Comments. Shimbori et al. (2019) discussed possible apomorphic and synapomorphic character states between Cheloninae and Adeliini. Apart from the synapomorphic characters, the number of antennomeres is considered as plesiomorphic character to some extent (E.M. Shimbori, personal communication). Within the tribe it has been also found (Kittel & Austin 2014; Kittel et al. 2015, 2016) that the division of the propodeum into distinct anterior and posterior parts (in Adelius, Sinadelius and Sculptomyriola) is a plesiomorphic character as it is absent in other genera (in Carinadelius gen. nov., Myriola and Paradelius). It is suggested that the new genus Carinadelius is probably derived from the genus Adelius., Published as part of Ranjith, A. P., Achterberg, C. Van, Samartsev, K.

Ovipositor without dorsal nodus and ventral serrations. Etymology. Name formed by combining the generic name Adelius and ‘carina’, because of the midlongitudinal carina on the propodeum and the incomplete occipital carina. Gender: masculine. Distribution. Oriental region (India). Comparative diagnosis. The ventrally reduced occipital carina and the midlongitudinal carina and vertical lateral carina posteriorly of the propodeum are considered to be apomorphic characters of the new genus. In addition, the new genus exhibits another peculiar character, its propodeum is not divided into anterior and posterior parts by means of a complete transverse carina which separates it from other genera. This carina may be reduced in Adelius. These characters combined separate Carinadelius from other genera within the tribe. In the keys provided by Belokobylskij (1988, 1998), He & Chen (2000), Shimbori et al. (2019) Carinadelius comes close to Adelius because of the smooth metasoma and evenly fused metasomal tergites 1–3. The combination of the smooth metasoma and absence of first and second metasomal sutures places this genus within the group containing Adelius and Myriola. The smooth marginated areas on the propodeum found in Carinadelius are different from those in Adelius + Myriola. Apart from the apomorphic characters Carinadelius exhibits some other interesting characters like absence of fore wing vein r and position of vein cu-a. Carinadelius differs from Adelius in having the unique carination of the propodeum (propodeum without midlongitudinal carina posteriorly in Adelius), ventrally absent occipital carina which is not connected with hypostomal carina (occipital carina complete, connected with hypostomal carina in Adelius), fore wing vein M+CU distinctly curved (more or less straight in Adelius), vein r absent (present or absent in Adelius). Carinadelius is also similar to Myriola in having an undivided propodeum. However, it differs from Myriola in having the following characters: fore wing vein 1-R1 present and long (vein 1-R1 absent in Myriola), malar space distinctly longer than basal width of mandible (distinctly shorter than basal width of mandible in Myriola), fore wing vein r absent (present in Myriola), fore wing infuscated (hyaline in Myriola). The smooth metasoma in Carinadelius separates it from the genera Paradelius, Sculptomyriola and Sinadelius in which metasomal tergites 1–3 are sculptured. Even though other adeliine genera exhibit a fixed number of antennomeres (22 in Sinadelius and 20–21 in other genera), it is found that number of antennomeres is highly variable at least in the genus Adelius (E.M. Shimbori, personal communication).

Myriola Shestakov, 1932, is traditionally included in Adelius Haliday, 1833 (Yu et al. 2016), but there are several differences between both taxa as listed above in the key to genera.
