Dusona bicoloripes (Ashmead, 1906) View in CoL (Fig. 11)

Superficially Dusona spp. resemble Casinaria spp. , but belonging to the former tribe of Porizontini the suture on the first tergite is often indistinct or absent.

Dusona bicoloripes View in CoL belongs to the group with the epipleurum of the third gastral tergite separated from the tergite. The specimen from Zedelgem ( Belgium) measured 11.5 mm and had 49–50 flagellomeres. There is one diagnostic character, the frons has a small raised point between its eye and its antennal socket. The metasoma has some of the middle tergites red, the others black ( HORSTMANN, 2009; see Fig. 11). Lymantria dispar (Linnaeus 1758) View in CoL ( Lepidoptera View in CoL : Erebidae View in CoL ) is considered to be the main host ( SAWONIEWICZ, 1979).
