chrysogastra ( Tobias, 1986; Exotela )
Literature: Tobias (1986); Fischer et al. (2004).
chrysotegula ( Tobias, 1986; Exotela )
Literature: Tobias (1986); Fischer (1999), Fischer et al. (2004), Peris-Felipo et al. (2015).
DNA Barcode: Yes.
Notes: Transferred to Aristelix by Fischer (1999) but returned to Antrusa by Peris-Felipo et al. (2015) who provide a full description of the male holotype. DNA Barcode is from a Bulgarian male specimen that matches well the redescription.
curtitempus Fischer, Tormos, Docavo & Pardo, 2004 View in CoL
Literature: Fischer et al. (2004); Tormos et al. (2009).
Hosts: Hypothesis— Parasitoid of Phytomyza horticola on Cicer arietinum ( Fabaceae ). Evidence— Tormos et al. (2009).
Notes: Larval morphology and adult venom apparatus described by Tormos et al. (2009).
flavicoxa ( Thomson, 1895; Dacnusa )
Synonymy: melanocera sensu Nixon.
Literature: Nixon 1937 -50; Nixon 1954 -281; Griffiths II-558, VI-68 [VII-345] (K II-588).
Hosts: Hypothesis—Parasitoid of Agromyza & Cerodontha spp. on Poaceae . Evidence—Griffiths (65); NMS (17). Recorded hosts: A. albipennis , A. megalopsis , A. nigripes , A. lucida , A. distorta , C. flavocingulata , C. incisa , C. phragmitidis , C. phalaridis , C. pygmaea , C. zoerneri .
DNA Barcode: Yes; specimens in four BINs key to A. flavicoxa .
Notes: Thomson described two related species, flavicoxa & melanocera , that differed in size with melanocera the smaller. Nixon also recognised two species but called the larger melanocera and described the smaller as persimilis . Griffiths initially (II-558) followed Thomson, recognising flavicoxa and synonymising persimilis with melanocera , but then (VI-68) decided that the reared material before him (from Agromyza and Cerodontha ) belonged to a single species and suggested melanocera was conspecific with flavicoxa . However, he commented that the wasps called persimilis by Nixon tended to be smaller and refrained from formally synonymising the two. New biological information (see melanocera ) and barcode data support Nixon’s concept of the two species: flavicoxa (his melanocera ) and melanocera (his persimilis ). A. flavicoxa sensu stricto shows considerable morphological variability and this and the DNA Barcode data suggest it may be a species complex. Mistakenly under Dacnusa in Fauna Europaea (2023).
melanocera ( Thomson, 1895; Dacnusa )
Synonymy: persimilis ( Nixon, 1954, Antrusa ).
Literature: Nixon 1954 -281; Griffiths II-558, VI-68 [VII-345] (K II-588).
Hosts: Hypothesis— Parasitoid of Liriomyza and Phytomyza on Poaceae ). Evidence— NMS (17). Comment— Recorded hosts Liriomyza flaveola and Phytomyza nigra .
DNA Barcode: Yes; specimens in related BIN from Madeira likely represent an undescribed species near E. melanocera .
Notes: See Exotela flavicoxa notes for earlier treatment of this taxon.
montecristiensis Tormos, Pardo, Asís, Gayubo & de la Nuez, 2009
Literature: Tormos et al. (2009).
Similar species: A. chrysogastra .
vaenia Nixon, 1954 View in CoL
Literature: Nixon 1954 -282; Griffiths (K II-588).
Notes: Two of the four specimens known to Nixon were captured in copula on a Carduus sp. ( Asteraceae ).
