Cotesia jft07

Distribution.

NEA, PAL.

Notes.

This species seems to be related to the European Cotesia salebrosa (Marshall, 1885), or perhaps it is that same species (in which case it would be the first record of the species for the Nearctic). Pending further study of more material from other localities, we prefer to keep it as an undescribed for the time being. This species corresponds in BOLD to BIN BOLD:ABZ3751.
