Aguiar, Alexandre P. & Santos, Bernardo F., 2012, Additions to the revision of Digonocryptus Viereck (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, Cryptinae), with nine new taxa, new males, and distribution maps for all known species, Zootaxa 3282, pp. 1-41 : 27

Digonocryptus tarsatus (Cresson, 1865)

Morphological variation. Fore wing 10.1 mm. Sulcus between sternaulus and scrobe distinct. Fore wing vein 3- Cu 1.63 length of 4-Cu. Ovipositor 1.41 length of hind tibia. All areas described as yellow by Aguiar & Ramos (2010) are white on the examined specimen. The following are dark areas not present on the specimen examined by those authors: propodeal area in front of anterior transverse carina fully dark brown; area behind posterior transverse carina with large dark brown spot centro-posteriorly. Identical otherwise.

Comments. A single Cuban specimen was studied by Aguiar & Ramos (2010). The female reported here, also from Cuba, is very similar in all details described by those authors, except as indicated above. Morphometric proportions all also quite similar.

Material examined. 1 female from CUBA, Santiago province, Gran Piedra, 1100 m, 14–17.XII.1995, yellow pans, LMasner ( CNCI).
