Key to Nearctic genera of Mymaridae View in CoL View at ENA . Males.
Note: Males are apparently unknown worldwide for Eofoersteria and Platystethynium (Platypatasson) . Males are unknown in the Nearctic for Arescon , Eustochus , Litus , and Stephanocampta but are keyed based on features found in extralimital species; the assumption is that when congeneric males in the Nearctic are discovered they will resemble extralimital males in their key features.
