Abstract
Characteristics of the braconine genera Zaglyptogastra Ashmead, Bathyaulax Szipligeti and Odontoscapus Kriechbaumer arc described. The genera Megagonia Szipligeti and Holcosomius Fahringer are synonymized with Zaglyptogastra. Goniobracon Szfpligeti and Euryacria Enderlein are synonymized with Bathyaulax, and the relationship of the latter to Ischnobracon Baltazar is discussed. The genera Antiolcia Enderlein, Diamblomcrina Enderlein and Bias tomorpha Cameron are synonymized with Odontoscapus. The type specimens of twenty-nine species of braconines have been examined; ten of these are transferred to Zaglyptogastra, seven to Bathyaulax and seven to Odontoscapus. The generic position of five species originally described as belonging to Bathyaulax has been confirmed.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
