Diagnosis
(based on Dangerfield et al. (1999) with modifications and additions). Diagnostic characters of Bohayella based on Old World members were described in Belokobylskij (1987) (in Russian) and Dangerfield et al. (1999) (in English). The following are re-described or additional characters based on morphological characters of both Old World and New World members.
Members of the genus can be identified by setose compound eyes (length and density variable); ventro-posteriorly moderately extended gena (Fig. 3F View Figure 3 ).broad clypeus without clypeal tubercles (Figs 3B View Figure 3 , 4C View Figure 4 ); absence of occipital carina; uni- or bi-dentate mandible; 5- or 6-segmented maxillary palpus; 4-segmented labial palpus; short mouthparts (galea and glossa); deep and broad notauli and scutellar sulcus (Figs 3C, F View Figure 3 , 4B, D View Figure 4 ); scutellum with apical cup-like pit (Figs 3C, F View Figure 3 , 4B, D View Figure 4 ); fully developed propodeal areola (Figs 3D, F View Figure 3 , 4B, E View Figure 4 ); moderately to strongly sculptured pronotum and mesopleuron; presence of epicnemial carina (Figs 3A View Figure 3 , 4A View Figure 4 ); well-defined and crenulate precoxal sulcus (Figs 3A View Figure 3 , 4A View Figure 4 ); absence of apical cup-like projection of hind tibia (Figs 3A View Figure 3 , 4A View Figure 4 ); cylindrical or antero-posteriorly slightly expanded hind basitarsus (but never expanded like hind basitarsi found in members of Hartemita Cameron, 1910) (Figs 3A View Figure 3 , 4A View Figure 4 ); pectinate tarsal claw with sharp or obtuse apical tooth; entirely or apically infuscate forewing; absence of 1r vein of forewing; absence of 3r vein of forewing; basally angled or smoothly curved Rs vein; absence of 2-1A vein of hind wing; narrow and elongate T1 (median length of T1 4.0-6.3 × longer than its apical width) (Figs 3D, F View Figure 3 , 4B, E View Figure 4 ); short T2; a medio-basal ball-like projection of T2 (Figs 3D, F View Figure 3 , 4B, E View Figure 4 ); short and truncate hypopygium (Figs 3A View Figure 3 , 4A View Figure 4 ); short ovipositor (if protruded, strongly downcurved); short ovipositor sheath (<~0.2 × longer than hind tibia) (Figs 3A View Figure 3 , 4A View Figure 4 ).
