Aulacus flindersbaudini Jennings, Austin & Stevens 2004
No full textAulacus flindersbaudini Jennings, Austin & Stevens, 2004 Aulacus flindersbaudini Jennings et al. 2004b: 18; Jennings 2010 [on-line checklist]. This species was described recently from a single male from Kangaroo Island, South Australia (Jennings et al. 2004b). The mesoscutum in lateral view is rounded antero-dorsally and the metasoma clavate. Aulacus flindersbaudini is largely reddish brown (described as red in the original description) except metasomal T1 is dark brown dorsally.Published as part of Jennings, John T., Parslow, Ben A. & Austin, Andrew D., 2018, Systematics of the parasitoid wasp genus Aulacus Jurine (Hymenoptera: Evanioidea: Aulacidae) from Australia, pp. 1-113 in Zootaxa 4538 (1) on page 43, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4538.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/377136

No full textCotesia geometricae Austin, 2000 Fig. 16B Cotesia geometricae Austin, 2000 in Schumacher et al. 2000: 11 (holotype, ♀, ANIC). Diagnosis Cotesia geometricae can be separated from all other species of Cotesia currently described from Australia and Papua New Guinea by the following combination of characters: anteromesoscutum punctulate, much smoother than most other species; T3 only sparsley setose, mostly in posterior third; T1 parallel sided; fore wing vein 2RS not extending past junction with r, not creating a ‘stub’, hypopygium not emarginate.

Glyptapanteles albigena Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin 2022
No full textGlyptapanteles albigena species group The G. albigena species group is easily separated from the other species of Glyptapanteles in Australasia by the gena having a pale spot. This pale spot varies from barely visible (e.g., G. harveyi sp. nov.), to a large area covering at least a third of the gena height (e.g., G. albigena sp. nov.). This species group contains nine species: G. albigena Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin sp. nov., G. andamookaensis Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin sp. nov., G. aspersus Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin sp. nov., G. austrinus Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin sp. nov. sp. nov., G. ferrugineus Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin sp. nov., G. harveyi Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin sp. nov., G. kittelae Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin sp. nov., G. mnesampela Austin, 2000 and G. sanniopolus Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin sp. nov. The species group, as currently known, has a broad distribution across the southern half of Australia (Fig. 4A).Published as part of Fagan-Jeffries, Erinn P., McCLELLAND, Alana R., Bird, Andrew J., Giannotta, Madalene M., Bradford, Tessa M. & Austin, Andrew D., 2022, Systematic revision of the parasitoid wasp genus Glyptapanteles Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Microgastrinae) for Australia results in a ten-fold increase in species, pp. 1-116 in European Journal of Taxonomy 792 (1) on page 17, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2022.792.1647, http://zenodo.org/record/603705

Diagnosis Cotesia urabae can be separated from all other species of Cotesia currently described from Australia and Papua New Guinea by the following combination of characters: T1 broadening consistently posteriorly, almost wedge shaped; scutellar disk smooth with small punctures associated with setae; mesosoma not dorsoventrally flattened; hind coxa and metasoma as dark; ocelli normal sized, ocular-ocellar line/ posterior ocellus diameter <2.4; fore wing vein r normally longer than, occasionally of similar length to 2RS; hind tibia with only a very small darkened patch, mainly in dorsal view.

Glyptapanteles eburneus Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin 2022
No full textGlyptapanteles eburneus species group The G. eburneus species group currently contains only two closely related species, G. eburneus Fagan- Jeffries, Bird & Austin sp. nov. and G. foraminous Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin sp. nov. which are differentiated from all other species of Glyptapanteles in Australia by having the gena without a pale spot, T1 completely pale, hind coxa pale, deep punctures on the anteromesoscutum and a clear median carina on the propodeum. This species group is known from two single localities on the east coast of Australia, in QLD and NSW (Fig. 4D).Published as part of Fagan-Jeffries, Erinn P., McCLELLAND, Alana R., Bird, Andrew J., Giannotta, Madalene M., Bradford, Tessa M. & Austin, Andrew D., 2022, Systematic revision of the parasitoid wasp genus Glyptapanteles Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Microgastrinae) for Australia results in a ten-fold increase in species, pp. 1-116 in European Journal of Taxonomy 792 (1) on page 18, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2022.792.1647, http://zenodo.org/record/603705
Aulacus douglasi Jennings, Austin & Stevens 2004
No full textAulacus douglasi Jennings, Austin & Stevens, 2004 Aulacus douglasi Jennings et al. 2004a: 116; Jennings 2010 [on-line checklist]. This species from Wubin, Western Australia, was described recently by Jennings et al. (2004a). In addition to the description in Jennings et al. (2004a), the ovipositor guide is medial and oblique. Aulacus douglasi keys out in a group together with A. pallidus and A. tiernyi, all of which have a medial and oblique ovipositor guide. Aulacus douglasi is a large species, length 16.5 mm, excluding ovipositor, whereas the other two species are much smaller— A. pallidus length 6.8 mm, excluding ovipositor and A. tiernyi length 7.6 (6.5–8.25) mm, excluding ovipositor. There are also colouration differences (see key).Published as part of Jennings, John T., Parslow, Ben A. & Austin, Andrew D., 2018, Systematics of the parasitoid wasp genus Aulacus Jurine (Hymenoptera: Evanioidea: Aulacidae) from Australia, pp. 1-113 in Zootaxa 4538 (1) on page 37, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4538.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/377136
Aulacus houstoni Jennings, Austin & Stevens 2004
No full textAulacus houstoni Jennings, Austin & Stevens, 2004 Aulacus houstoni Jennings et al. 2004a: 117; Jennings 2010 [on-line checklist]. This species was described recently by Jennings et al. (2004a) from the Fitzgerald River National Park, Western Australia. In addition to the description provided in Jennings et al. (2004a), the ovipositor guide is medial, transverse and broad, with short setae on the distal margin and in groove. Aulacus houstoni keys out with A. longiventris and A. belairensis. The three species can be separated readily by the lateral medial carina above the toruli, which is present in A. longiventris and A. houstoni but is absent in A. belairensis. For additional differences, see under A. belairensis above.Published as part of Jennings, John T., Parslow, Ben A. & Austin, Andrew D., 2018, Systematics of the parasitoid wasp genus Aulacus Jurine (Hymenoptera: Evanioidea: Aulacidae) from Australia, pp. 1-113 in Zootaxa 4538 (1) on page 50, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4538.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/377136
Glyptapanteles mouldsi Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin 2022
No full textGlyptapanteles mouldsi species group The G. mouldsi species group can be distinguished from all of the other Glyptapanteles described from Australia by having the gena without a pale spot, T2 pale in colouration, with T1 darker than T2 and no median carina on the propodeum. It contains three newly described species: G. dowtoni Fagan-Jeffries, Bird &Austin sp. nov., G. mouldsi Fagan-Jeffries, Bird &Austin sp. nov. and G. rixi Fagan-Jeffries, Bird & Austin sp. nov. The group is paraphyletic in the current phylogeny (Fig. 2). The G. mouldsi species group is currently only known from the east coast of Australia, from northern QLD to central NSW (Fig. 4E).Published as part of Fagan-Jeffries, Erinn P., McCLELLAND, Alana R., Bird, Andrew J., Giannotta, Madalene M., Bradford, Tessa M. & Austin, Andrew D., 2022, Systematic revision of the parasitoid wasp genus Glyptapanteles Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Microgastrinae) for Australia results in a ten-fold increase in species, pp. 1-116 in European Journal of Taxonomy 792 (1) on page 18, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2022.792.1647, http://zenodo.org/record/603705
