Choeras tegularis (Szépligeti, 1905) . Revised combination.

Microgaster tegularis Szépligeti, 1905: 49 . Original description.

Protomicroplitis tegularis (Szépligeti, 1905) . Nixon, 1965: 235. Revised combination.

Choeras tegularis (Szépligeti, 1905) . Austin & Dangerfield, 1992: 21. Revised combination.

Protomicroplitis tegularis (Szépligeti, 1905) . Papp, 2004: 206. Revised combination. Papp was aware of the paper by Austin & Dangerfield (1992), as he loaned the type of tegularis to them (Papp, 2004: 206), but without explanation transferred the species back to Protomicroplitis .

Protomicroplitis tegularis (Szépligeti, 1905) . Yu et al. 2012. It is very likely that Yu et al. (2012) were merely following Papp (2004). Although technically Taxapad (Yu et al. 2012) is not a publication, it is a consulted and followed source by the taxonomic community.

Comments. Because the male holotype is lost (Austin & Dangerfield 1993, Papp 2004) the correct identity of this species may never be established unambiguously. However, it is clear that this species is not Protomicroplitis, based on the illustrations of the fore wing in Nixon (1965: Fig. 304), and propodeum and mediotergites 1–3 in Austin & Dangerfield (1992: Fig. 27). I agree with Austin & Dangerfield (1992) that it is most likely to be Choeras .
