Diagnosis
Head with scrobal depression bell-shaped, dorsal margin separated from anterior ocellus by distance equal to 1.53 × diameter of anterior ocellus ( Figs 5C View Fig , 7E View Fig ); OOL: POL: LOL: MPOD = 1.0: 7.0: 12.5: 10.0; antennal clava short, about 1.6× as long as wide ( Fig. 5F View Fig ). Tibiae black, except metatibia with basal half of dorsal margin milky-white ( Fig. 5A View Fig ). Fore wing disc infuscate with dark brown setae beyond level of parastigma except gradually lightened distally where more hyaline, and with one subtriangular hyaline spot behind marginal vein distally ( Fig. 5E View Fig ). Propodeum with anterior margin broadly U-shaped; plical region comparatively long ( Figs 5I View Fig , 10E View Fig ).
Etymology
From the Latin word ‘ campana ’ (‘bell’) in reference to the bell-shape of scrobal depression ( Fig. 5C View Fig ).

HEAD ( Fig. 5C–D, H View Fig ). Dark with blue, green or yellow metallic luster, as follows: scrobal depression metallic greenish-blue ( Fig. 5C View Fig ), interantennal prominence, parascrobal region and lower face more golden-green ( Fig. 5C View Fig ), frons golden-yellow with slight purple metallic luster ( Fig. 5D View Fig ), vertex and temple green with golden-yellow metallic luster under some angles of light ( Fig. 5D View Fig ). Setae of lower face ( Fig. 5C View Fig ), interantennal prominence, lower part of parascrobal region ( Fig. 5C View Fig ), and gena ( Figs 5H View Fig , 8I View Fig ) white and lanceolate, setae of upper part of parascrobal region ( Figs 5C View Fig , 8B View Fig ), frons ( Figs 5D View Fig , 7H View Fig ) and vertex ( Fig. 5D View Fig ) brown and hair-like; maxillary and labial palpi black ( Fig. 5C View Fig ). Head in frontal view 1.18× as wide as high; in dorsal view width 1.51 × length, with interocular distance 0.16 × head width and less than width of eye; in lateral view 1.22× as high as long. Eye height about equal to width in lateral view; distance between eyes below 4 × distance between eyes above; malar space 0.51 × eye height; distance between toruli greater than distance between torulus and clypeal margin, and greater than distance between torulus and orbit. OOL: POL: LOL: MPOD = 1.0: 7.0: 12.5: 10.0. Face with parascrobal region narrow, interantennal region reticulate ( Fig. 7E View Fig ), scrobal depression ( Fig. 7E View Fig ) deep and bell-shaped, imbricate, dorsal margin delimited, separated from anterior ocellus by distance equal to 1.53× diameter of anterior ocellus; lower orbit above level of dorsal margin of torulus; lower face coriaceous; vertex and temple imbricate. Antennal ( Figs 5F View Fig , 9G–H View Fig ) scape and pedicel with yellowishgreen metallic luster, flagellum dark brown, 1 st and 2 nd segments of funicle with greenish-yellow metallic luster; scape normal, not expanded; relative length(width) of scape = 40(10), pedicel 19(4.5), 1 st to 8 th funiculars: 4.5(5), 20(6), 20(7.5), 20(11.5), 9.5(11), 9(12), 6.5(11.5), 5.5(12), clava 22.5(14).
MESOSOMA. Pronotum in dorsal view ( Fig. 5B View Fig ), dark with reddish-green to blue metallic luster, setae brown and hair-like; divided medially, pentagonal, imbricate. Mesoscutum ( Fig. 5B View Fig ) slightly convex anteriorly and concave posteriorly, and with lateral lobe carinate posteriorly; dark with slight greenishblue metallic luster, anterior convex region dark brown with brown hair-like setae, setae of posterior depressed region and lateral lobe white and lanceolate. Scutellar-axillar complex ( Fig. 5B View Fig ) dark purple with green metallic luster, setae brown and hair-like; disc flat with coarsely reticulate pattern arranged longitudinally in scutellum and transversely in axillae; scutellum 1.71 × as long as broad. Prepectus ( Fig. 5G View Fig ) dark brown to yellowish-brown; tegula dark brown with white hair-like setae; mesopectus dark purple, with long hair-like white setae; acropleuron reddish-purple with green metallic luster; mesopectus reticulate anterior to acropleural sulcus, acropleuron very finely longitudinally imbricate to coriaceous. Propodeum ( Figs 5I View Fig , 10E View Fig ) dark blue with slight greenish-blue metallic luster, anterior margin broadly U-shaped; plical region comparatively long, reticulate, with one patch of setae adjacent to spiracle anteriorly, callus coriaceous and bare, except with long white hair-like setae laterally. Fore wing ( Fig. 5E View Fig ) extended near apex of gaster, with costal cell dorsally bare except for dark brown setae in infuscate region in front of parastigma; basal cell hyaline with white setae except for one small brown region with brown setae at base, mediocubital fold setose with white setae; disc infuscate with dense brown setae except lightened distally, and with one hyaline spot with white setae behind marginal vein, the spot almost triangular in shape; stigmal vein distinctly bent distally so as to parallel anterior margin; SMV: MV: PMV: STV = 14.0: 12.0: 7.2: 3.7. Fore leg ( Fig. 5A, G View Fig ) with femur and tibia black, tarsus brown; middle leg with femur and tibia black, tarsus milky-white to light brown, spur yellowish-brown, shorter than basitarsus; hind leg with tibia black except basal half of dorsal margin milky-white, tarsus white to light brown, with basitarsus longer than the following two tarsomeres combined.
GASTER ( Fig. 5A View Fig ). Elongate-lanceolate, longer than mesosoma, black with metallic luster, except apex of syntergum and ovipositor sheaths brown; syntergum tapered to rounded apex; ovipositor sheath exserted slightly, for distance shorter than basitarsomere of hind leg.
Remarks
The fore wing of females of Z. campaniformis sp. nov. has a hyaline spot similar to Z. zhongi sp. nov. ( Fig. 6E View Fig ), but the spot is more distinctly triangular ( Fig. 5E View Fig ). Further, females are distinguished by the color of the anterior convex region of the mesoscutum, this being dark brown for Z. campaniformis ( Fig. 5B View Fig ) rather than green for Z. zhongi ( Fig. 6B View Fig ). Further, the pronotum of Z. campaniformis is distinctly bicolored ( Fig. 5B View Fig ), rather than yellowish-blue for Z. zhongi ( Fig. 6B View Fig ). Females of Z. campaniformis can also be distinguished by the color of the scrobal depression, having less luster and a more greenish pattern ( Fig. 5C View Fig ) rather than the dark blue color of Z. zhongi ( Fig. 6C View Fig ).
Distribution
China: Guangxi (Oriental).
Variation
The body length of the paratype is 4.9 mm; the color of the pronotum is more coppery than that of the holotype.
