Belokobylskij, Sergey A., 2018, Notioperilitus gen. nov., a new braconid genus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Euphorinae) from Australia, parasitoid of adult Morabinae (Orthoptera: Eumastacidae), with remarks on the generic placement of two Afrotropical euphorine species, Zootaxa 4441 (2), pp. 298-310 : 305

Key to species of the genus Centistoides

1. First medial abscissa (1-SR+M) of fore wing sinuate; second medial abscissa (2-SR+M) long, 0.6 × as long as recurrent vein ( Fig. 31 ). Discoidal (first discal) cell anteriorly narrowly sessile ( Fig. 31 ). First transverse anal vein (1a) present ( Fig. 3 1 ). Propodeum with distinct basomedian carina and with areola completely delineated by carinae ( Figs 30, 32 ). Prescutellar depression (scutellar sulcus) distinctly sculptured ( Fig. 30 ). Ovipositor sheath thick, but flattened on narrow flanges dorsally and apically, densely setose subapically ( Fig. 33 ). Fore wing length 4.7 mm. Afrotropical region ( Madagascar)................................................................. C. ophthalmicus ( Granger, 1949) , comb. nov. ( Figs 22–33 )

- First medial abscissa (1-SR+M) of fore wing straight; second medial abscissa (2-SR+M) short, about 0.3 × as long as recurrent vein ( Fig. 41 ). Discoidal (first discal) cell anteriorly broadly sessile ( Fig. 41 ). First transverse anal vein (1a) absent ( Fig. 41 ). Propodeum without basomedian carina, with areola incompletely delineated by carinae ( Figs 39, 43 ). Prescutellar depression (scutellar sulcus) smooth ( Fig. 39 ). Ovipositor sheath entirely flatted, truncate and glabrous apically ( Figs 42, 44 ). Fore wing length 3.0 mm. Neotropical region ( Suriname)............................ C. doesburgi Achterberg, 1992 ( Figs 34–44 )
