Xanthopimpla fastigiata Krieger, 1914 . Arch. f. Naturgesch., (A) 80(6): 30. Holotype: ♂, Indonesia: Sumatra, Sarik (ZMHB).

Xanthopimpla fastigiata evittipes Townes & Chiu, 1970 View in CoL . Mem. Amer. Ent. Inst., 14: 234. Holotype: ♂, India: Charduar forest, Rangapara , Assam (GPTA).

Diagnosis. Propodeum with basal transverse carina, lateromedian longitudinal carina present only in front of basal transverse carina; tergites 1, 3, 5, and 7 each with black band; ovipositor sheath 0.9x hind tibia.

Distribution. Previously recorded from India, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and the Philippines ( Yu et al. 2005), this is the first record of X. fastigiata Townes & Chiu from Vietnam (Fig. 24).

Remarks. Two subspecies are currently recognised: X. fastigiata fastigiata from Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and the Philippines, which differs from X. fastigiata evittipes Townes & Chiu from India and Thailand by its more profuse black markings (including the hind slope of the head; mid and hind femora, tergites 2, 4, and 6). The specimens from northern Vietnam belong to X. fastigiata evittipes . The male specimens collected from Thua Thien-Hue and Dak Lak provinces belong to the nominate subspecies. Whether these subspecies represent clinal variation in the extent of black markings or are different species remains to be tested.
