M a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d 1, 1 Honduras, Cortés Parque Nacional Cusuco, 5 km N Buenos Aires, 1513’W, 1: 15 July 1995 and 1: 30 July 1995, leg. R. Cave. The species was originally described on the basis of a single female specimen. A pair of specimens: one female and one male were caught in Honduras, they proved to represent the species in question. The male specimen is new to science, the female deviates from the holotype in a few features. D e s c r i p t i o n of the male: Similar to the female holotype. Body 3.3 mm long. Antenna with 28 antennomeres. Head in dorsal view 1.8 times as broad as long, temple somewhat longer than eye (Fig. 8). Forewing: pterostigma 2.6 times as long as wide (Fig. 12). Hind femur 3.3 times as long as broad medially (Fig. 11). Legs whitish to pale yellow. Deviating features of the female: Body 3.2 mm long. Antenna with 29 antennomeres. Forewing: r short though distinct, 3-SR 0.8 times as long as 2-SR. Ovipositor sheath short, as long as hind tibia + basitarsus combined. Legs whitish to pale yellow. Host unknown.

A revision of the Bracon Fabricius species in Wesmael’s collection deposited in Brussels (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Braconinae)
No full textAn account of the taxonomic position of the genus Bracon Fabricius, 1804 is presented. In his monograph Wesmael (1838: 7-58) made a survey of 48 nominal species of Bracon occurring in Belgium. Out of the 48 species thirty-seven were described by Wesmael himself as new species, eleven more species had previously been described by Fabricius (three species), Nees (seven species) and Spinola (one species). The Bracon material studied by Wesmael is deposited in the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, Brussels. Type (holo-, lecto-, paralectotype) designations are made for Wesmael’s species and neotype designations for Nees sensu Wesmael’s species. Redescriptions, comments on distributions and their taxonomic positions are presented. Palpibracon subgen. nov. is established (type species Bracon delibator Haliday, 1833) for fi ve Bracon species with long maxillary palpi in the Holarctic (four species) and Ethiopian Region (one species). The following fifteen Bracon species names proved to be junior synonyms (valid names in italics): B. dichromus Wesmael, 1838 = B. carpaticus Niezabitowski, 1910 syn. nov.; B. erraticus Wesmael, 1838 = B. bellicosus Papp, 1971 syn. nov., = B. exarator Marshall, 1885 syn. nov., = B. praetermissus Marshall, 1885 syn. nov., B. vectensis Marshall, 1885 syn. nov.; B. fuscicornis Wesmael, 1838 = B. levicarinatus Niezabitowski, 1910 syn. nov.; B. immutator Nees, 1834 = B. breviusculus Wesmael, 1838 syn. nov.; B. intercessor Nees, 1834 = B. laetus Wesmael, 1838 syn. nov.; B. larvicida Wesmael, 1838 = B. crassiusculus Szépligeti, 1901 syn. nov.; B. longicollis Wesmael, 1838 = B. subcylindricus Wesmael, 1838 syn. nov.; B. megapterus Wesmael, 1838 = B. biimpressus Telenga, 1936 syn. nov.; B. nigratus Wesmael, 1838 = B. orbicularis Niezabitowski, 1910 syn. nov.; B. osculator Nees, 1811 = B. coniferarum Fahringer, 1927 (Schmiedeknecht in litt.) syn. nov.; B. picticornis Wesmael, 1838 = B. vitripennis Ratzeburg, 1852 syn. nov.; B. titubatus Wesmael, 1838 = B. fuscipennis Wesmael, 1838 syn. nov. The species Bracon (Lucobracon) turolus Papp, 1984 is revalidated (suppressed under the name B. (Glabrobracon) nigriventris Wesmael, 1838 by Tobias & Belokobylskij 2000: 162). A historic discussion of the subgeneric division of the Bracon species is given

Holotype is in good condition: metasoma glued separately; paratypes are in fairly good condition, their antennae partly damaged, one paratype with somewhat creased wings, every specimen glued on a pointed card by mesosternum between coxae 1–2. Etymology. – The species name “correcta” refers to the name correction: earlier I named this series as Synaldis trematosa FISCHER (PAPP 1994: 137); Dr. M. FISCHER was kind enough to call my attention that the series at hand represents a new species in the genus Adelphenaldis FISCHER, 2003. Description of the female holotype. – Body 1.7 mm long. Antenna about as long as body and with 15 antennomeres. First flagellomere 2.7 times and second flagellomere 2.2 times as long as broad apically, flagellomeres 1 and 2 equal in length, further flagellomeres thickening, 1.8 times and penultimate flagellomere also 1.8 times as long as broad (Fig. 12). – Head in dorsal view (Fig. 13) transverse, 1.9 times as broad as long and 1.7 times as broad as mesosternum between tegulae, eye one-fourth longer than temple, temple rounded. Subclypeal (or tentorial) pit reaching compound eye. OOL almost three times as long as POL, ocelli small and elliptic. Eye in lateral view 1.5 times as high as wide, temple a bit less wide than eye.

Epicnemial suture finely crenulate. Propodeum areolated, transverse carina of areola basalis only medially pointed as in Fig. 15, pair of spiracles fairly large. – Hind femur 3.7 times as long as broad distally (Fig. 16). Hind tibia and tarsus equal in length. Hind basitarsus as long as tarsomeres 2–4 combined. Fore wing distinctly one-fourth longer than body. Pterostigma hardly broader than metacarpal vein. Veins r + 3SR relatively short, SR1 2.6 times as long as r + 3SR (Fig. 17); cu–a postfurcal, first subdiscal cell closed, CU1a issuing from upper point of 3–CU1 + CU1b combined (Fig. 18). First tergite (Fig. 19) long, 2.3 times as long as broad, beyond pair of spiracles parallel-sided, spiracles just beyond middle of tergite, pair of converging keels distinct anteriorly, posteriorly faintly distinct. Tergites polished. Border between tergites 2–3 just distinct (Fig. 19). Third tergite a bit longer than second tergite. Ovipositor sheath in lateral view as long as hind basitarsus.

Body 1.5–2.1 mm long (1.5: 1 ♂, 1.8: 1 ♂, 2: 2 ♂♂, 2.1: 1 ♂). Antenna with 17–19 antennomeres (17: 3 ♂♂, 18: 1 ♂, 19: 1 ♂), flagellum less thickening. Flagellomeres 1–2 equal in length, 3.2 times as long as broad apically, further flagellomeres 2.4 times and penultimate flagellomere 2.2 times as long as broad. Carinae of propodeum stronger than those of female (Fig. 20). First tergite 2.6 times as long as broad behind. Metasoma light brown to brown, posteriorly somewhat darkening. Host unknown. Distribution: Korea. The new species, Adelphenaldis correcta, is near to A. trematosa (FISCHER) considering their long paraclypeal pit (or tentorial pit, WHARTON 1985) reaching compound eye, the short and crenulated precoxal suture and the long first tergite; the two species are separated by the features keyed (male of A. trematosa unknown): 1 (2) Female: Distal flagellomeres at most hardly longer than broad (Fig. 98 in FISCHER 2003: 74).

Mesosoma in lateral view stout, a bit longer than high. SR1 of fore wing 2.6 times as long as r + 3SR (Fig. 17). Ovipositor sheath in lateral view two-thirds as long as first tergite. ♀: 1.7 mm. – Male: Distal flagello- meres 2.4 times as long as broad, antenna with 17–19 antennomeres. – Korea A. correcta sp. n. Taxonomic remark. – The genus Adelphenaldis was described recently by FISCHER (2003: 41). Its generic difference from the genus Synaldis FOERSTER, 1862 is restricted to the length of the paraclypeal (or tentorial) pit and the mesoscutal dimple: (1) Adelphenaldis: pit large and reaching the compound eye, mesoscutal dimple either present or missing and (2) Synaldis: pit short and not reaching compound eye, mesoscutal dimple usually present. After FISCHER (1967 and l. c.) and BELOKOBYLSKIJ (2002) the following species are assigned to the genus Adelphenaldis: A. acutidentata (FISCHER, 1970) – Austria, China A. brunicorpus FISCHER, 2003 – Republic of South Africa A. claricornis (FISCHER, 1993) – Congo A. correcta sp. n. – Korea A. crassimembris FISCHER, 2003 – Republic of South Africa A. crassithorax FISCHER, 2003 – Republic of South Africa A. cultrata (BELOKOBYLSKIJ, 2002) – Asiatic Russia A. georgica (FISCHER, 1993) – Georgia A. gigascapus (FISCHER, 1993) – India A. knysnaana FISCHER, 2003 – Republic of South Africa A. magnareata (FISCHER, 1993) – Australia A. moniliata (BELOKOBYLSKIJ, 2002) – Asiatic Russia A. pacifica (BELOKOBYLSKIJ, 2002) – Asiatic Russia, Japan A. paraclypealis (FISCHER, 1967) – U.S.A.
