Pireninae

Diagnosis.

Body usually dark brownish or metallic. Antenna with at most 3 large flagellomeres and at least 2 anelli before clava (Fig. 49). Eyes usually not or only slightly diverging ventrally (except some males). Marginal vein at least 3.5 × as long as the short and mostly straight stigmal vein. Petiole without dorsal lamina.

Discussion.

In this new, more restricted sense, Pireninae contains genera that are morphologically similar to Macroglenes . They are here distinguished from Tridyminae, which are generally more stout in body shape and differ in features mentioned in diagnoses of both subfamilies, but most prominently in the antennal flagellum and relative lengths of the marginal and stigmal veins of the fore wing.
