Description. Female. Body length (excluding ovipositor sheath) 6.8 mm, length of extended part of ovipositor 4.6 mm, fore wing length 4.6 mm.
Head. Antennomeres 32; length of third flagellomere 1.1×fourth flagellomere; length of third, fourth and penultimate flagellomeres 4.7, 4.2 and 1.4×their width, respectively. Frons crest-shaped and elevated and punctate latero-dorsally, rugose-punctate latero-ventrally, medially reticulate-punctate and with a long median protruding lamella. In dorsal view length of eye 1.3×temple ( Fig. 3d View FIGURE 3 ). Malar suture absent ( Fig. 3c View FIGURE 3 ). Length of malar space 2×basal width of mandible, 0.6×maximum width of eye ( Fig. 3c View FIGURE 3 ). POL: OD: OOL=10: 6: 22 ( Fig. 3c View FIGURE 3 ). Face 0.6×as high as wide and 1.5×as wide as eye height and 0.6×as wide as head ( Fig. 3b View FIGURE 3 ). Face convex, densely punctate ( Fig. 3b View FIGURE 3 ). Vertex and temple smooth and shiny with moderately long hairs, rugose near mandible ( Figs. 3c, 3d View FIGURE 3 ). Clypeus rugose-punctate, distinctly separated from face by deep epistomal suture ( Fig. 3b View FIGURE 3 ).
Mesosoma. Length almost 2×as long as its height ( Fig. 3h View FIGURE 3 ). Pronope small, but distinct. Side of pronotum medially coarsely crenulate, postero-dorsally rugose-punctate, ventrally coarsely reticulate-punctate, remainder densely punctate ( Fig. 3h View FIGURE 3 ). Mesoscutal lobes punctate ( Fig. 3e View FIGURE 3 ). Notauli wide and deep, crenulate, posteriorly coarsely reticulate-punctate and with a medial carina ( Fig. 3e View FIGURE 3 ). Scutellum smooth, laterally and posteriorly rugose-punctate ( Fig. 3e View FIGURE 3 ). Precoxal sulcus wide and deep, coarsely crenulate, ventrally and posteriorly rugose-punctate ( Fig. 3h View FIGURE 3 ). Scutellar sulcus rugose and with one median carina ( Fig. 3e View FIGURE 3 ). Metanotum without a median carina. Propodeum coarsely rugose-reticulate and with a median longitudinal carina.
Wing. Fore wing about 3×as long as wide ( Fig. 3g View FIGURE 3 ). 1-M almost straight ( Fig. 3g View FIGURE 3 ). Stigma 2.5×as long as wide ( Fig. 3g View FIGURE 3 ). r: 3-SR: SR1=11: 15: 67 ( Fig. 3g View FIGURE 3 ). 2-SR: 3-SR: r-m=20: 15: 17 ( Fig. 3g View FIGURE 3 ). 1-M: m-cu= 32: 19 ( Fig. 3g View FIGURE 3 ). SR1 straight ( Fig. 3g View FIGURE 3 ). 1-M almost straight ( Fig. 3g View FIGURE 3 ). cu-a inclivous, postfurcal ( Fig. 3g View FIGURE 3 ). 1-CU1 very short ( Fig. 3g View FIGURE 3 ). r-m vertical ( Fig. 3g View FIGURE 3 ). Hind wing, 1-M: 1r-m=18: 25. cu-a inclivous.
Legs. Length of fore tarsus almost equal to length of fore tibia. Length of femur, tibia and basitarsus of hind leg 3.4, 8.6 and 7.1×their width, respectively. Hind femur robust. Length of outer and inner hind tibia spur 0.22 and 0.27×basitarsus, respectively.
Metasoma. First tergite subparallel-sided, densely reticulate-punctate, dorsal carinae distinct in basal two-thirds ( Fig. 3f View FIGURE 3 ); length of first tergite 1.2×its apical width ( Fig. 3f View FIGURE 3 ). Second tergite reticulate-punctate anteriorly and medially, latero-posteriorly smooth ( Fig. 3f View FIGURE 3 ). Third tergite punctate baso-medially, remainder smooth ( Fig. 3f View FIGURE 3 ). Ovipositor sheath 2×as long as metasoma, 2.3×as long as hind tibia, 2.3×as long as mesosoma and 1.0×as long as fore wing.
Colour. Black. Palpi, fore and mid tibia, tarsi yellow brown, rest of legs dark brown. Antenna, tegula and pterostigma reddish brown. Veins brown. Wing membrane light brown. Ovipositor sheath dark brown.
Variation. Antennomeres 32–33. Body length (excluding ovipositor sheath) 6.8–9.0 mm, fore wing length 5.0– 6.3 mm. Precoxal sulcus wide and deep, coarsely rugose-crenulate medially, anteriorly and posteriorly crenulate.
Male. Unknown.
Diagnosis. Aspicolpus jilinensis sp. n. is similar to A. erythrogaster (Tobias, 1967) , but differs in having the length of malar space 2×basal width of mandible (the latter 1.6×basal width of mandible); in dorsal view length of eye 1.3×temple (the latter 1.5×temple); scutellum smooth, laterally and posteriorly rugose-punctate (the latter sparsely punctate); second tergite reticulate-punctate anteriorly and medially, latero-posteriorly smooth (the latter smooth) and third tergite punctate baso-medially, remainder smooth (the latter smooth).
Distribution. China (Jilin).
Host. Unknown.
Etymology. It is named after the type locality of the species, Jilin Province, China.
