Distribution.
Australasian and Oriental regions ( Yu et al. 2016). Gauld and Mitchell (1981) recorded this species from Nepal.
Diagnosis.
Head (Fig. 14B-D View Figure 14 ): GOI = 2.8-3.1; lower face 0.7 × as wide as high; clypeus moderately convex in profile, its lower margin subacute to blunt; mandible moderately twisted by 20-30°, moderately long, evenly tapered, its outer surface without a diagonal structure; upper mandibular tooth 1.4-1.6 × as long as lower one; posterior ocellus close to eye; antenna with 63-66 flagellomeres and 20th flagellomere 2.1-2.3 × as long as wide.
Mesosoma (Fig. 14E View Figure 14 ): mesopleuron entirely closely to rather coarsely longitudinally striate; scutellum with lateral longitudinal carinae reaching anterior 0.8 or more and convergent posteriorly; metapleuron rather coarsely striate to strigose; propodeum weakly declivous, its posterior area coarsely reticulate to concentrically striate, outer margin of propodeal spiracle joining pleural carina by a ridge.
Wings (Fig. 14F View Figure 14 ): fore wing with AI = 0.4-0.5, CI = 0.2-0.3, ICI = 0.5-0.7, SDI = 1.1-1.3; fore wing vein 1m-cu&M moderately sinuate, 2r&RS almost straight; fenestra and sclerites of discosubmarginal cell of fore wing as in Figure 14F View Figure 14 ; fenestra of fore wing not very long and its anterodistal corner distinctly separated from proximal end of vein RS; proximal sclerite almost triangular, confluent with distal one, strongly pigmented; central sclerite strongly pigmented and sclerotised, linear and parallel to vein 2r&RS, positioned in anterodistal part of fenestra; distal sclerite present proximally and vestigial to absent distally; proximal corner of marginal cell of fore wing uniformly setose; vein 1cu-a antefurcal to M&RS by 0.1-0.2 × 1cu-a length.
Colour (Fig. 14 View Figure 14 ): body including interocellar area entirely testaceous; wings hyaline.
Differential diagnosis.
Enicospilus kanshirensis is most similar to E. flavicaput but can be distinguished from it by the stouter central sclerite (Fig. 14F View Figure 14 ) (central sclerite slender in E. flavicaput as in Figure 8F View Figure 8 ), and smaller body size (i.e. fore wing length less than 15.0 mm in E. kanshirensis but more than 17.0 mm in E. flavicaput ).
