Hassan-Pashai-Mehr leg.</p><p>Diagnosis Female. Head and mesosoma blackish green with metallic luster (Figs. 2A, 3A–D, F); antenna bronzy (Fig. 2); legs bronzy to amber; basal parts of coxae concolourous with mesosoma (Fig. 2A, 3A); metasoma fuscous to bronzy (Fig. 2A, 3G). Antenna of the female with a lower placoid sensillae than that of Hyssopus nigritulus (Zetterstedt, 1838) (Fig. 2A, 2B). Thorax flat dorsally (Fig. 2A, 3A); mesoscutum with fine reticulation (Fig. 3C); mesoscutellum smooth and shiny, sometimes alutaceous anteriorly (Figs 3C, 3F). Fore wing with marginal vein 3× as long as stigmal vein; submarginal vein with 7 setae dorsally; speculum small (Fig. 2A, 3E). Gaster oval and longer than the length of the thorax and propodeum together (Fig. 2A, 3G).</p><p>Male. Similar to female except enlarged and more globular head; antennal scape inflated with fewer placoid sensillae; gaster squatter than that of female (Figs 2C, 2D).</p><p>Primary hosts. Based on our findings, H. geniculatus is a primary ectoparasitoid of A. eleagnella larvae. Generally, H. geniculatus is an ectoparasitoid of lepidopterous larvae (Bouček &amp; Askew, 1968; Trjapitzin, 1978; Ermolaev et al., 2019), and additionally, two coleopterous species from Scolytidae and one dipterous species from Cecidomyiidae have been reported as its primary hosts (Bouček &amp; Askew, 1968). Its lepidopterous hosts are Gelechiidae, Gracillariidae, Pyralidae, and Tortricidae (Bouček &amp; Askew, 1968; Bouček, 1977; Trjapitzin, 1978; Yefremova et al., 2007).</p><p>Distribution. Afrotropical: Yemen (Yefremova, 2007); Palaearctic: Europe, Israel, Japan, Korea, Peoples' Republic of China, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan (Noyes, 2019), Iran (Yefremova et al., 2007; Ebrahimi et al., 2009).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03CADC2BFFCBFFB77A1DFBD6FE2AF7B7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Body black to blackish green with metallic luster (Figs 2, 3). Notauli complete; mesoscutum hemispherical with two pairs of setae on the mid lobe (Fig. 3C); mesosoma dorsally with fine reticulation on its entire surface (Figs 3C, 3F); mesoscutellum with distinct and complete submedian grooves that bend inward in the posterior part and nearly meeting each other. Propodeum with a simple median carina and without plicae or costula (Figs 3C, 3F). Antenna with four funiculars in both male and female (Fig. 2); anterior margin of clypeus not produced and only slightly rounded (Fig 3B); pronotum long and semi-globose with rounded front part (Figs 3A, 3C, 3D).</p><p>Remarks. The genus Hyssopus has 23 species worldwide, 12 of which are distributed in the Palaearctic region (Noyes, 2019), and two in Iran (Hesami et al., 2018). Species of this genus are primary ectoparasitoids of microlepidopterans larvae such as Coleophoridae, Gelechiidae, Pyralidae, and Tortricidae (Bouček, 1988), and in general, its primary hosts are lepidopterous larvae in concealed situations (Burks, 2003).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03CADC2BFFCBFFB77A1DFE06FE04FC45	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
