Description. FEMALE. Body length (of the dry-mounted paratypes) 1230–1400 µm. Head ( Fig. 33 View FIGURES 32–37 ) and mesosoma ( Fig. 34 View FIGURES 32–37 ) dark brown or black except eyes and ocelli pale or dirty pink; petiole yellowish or light brown; gaster ( Fig. 36 View FIGURES 32–37 ) brown to dark brown; scape and pedicel mostly light brown, F1 yellowish brown or brown, remainder of flagellum dark brown; legs yellowish or light brown except distal tarsomeres brown.

Most of face with weak sculpture, vertex with more conspicuous reticulate sculpture.

Antenna ( Fig. 32 View FIGURES 32–37 ) long and slender, with radicle 0.22–0.23x length of scape, remainder of scape 4.5–4.9x as long as wide, a little wider medially than basally or apically, faintly longitudinally striate; pedicel about as long or slightly longer than F1; all funicle segments longer than wide and subequal in length except F2 and F8 a little shorter and sometimes F1 slightly longer, F1 and F2 without mps, F3 usually with 1 mps but occasionally lacking it on one of the antennae, F4–F8 each with 2 mps; clava 2.9–3.3x as long as wide, almost as long as scape (including radicle), longer than combined length of F6–F8 or F1–F3, with 8 mps.

Mesosoma ( Fig. 34 View FIGURES 32–37 ) with pronotum weakly sculptured; mesoscutum and scutellum with strong reticulate sculpture (the cells a little smaller and less pronounced on anterior scutellum); metanotum smooth, with posterior margin slightly, broadly rounded; propodeum ( Fig. 35 View FIGURES 32–37 ) mostly smooth, with median carina much shorter than median areole; lateral carinae subparallel, extending to anterior margin of propodeum.

Forewing ( Fig. 37 View FIGURES 32–37 ) 2.8–3.0x as long as wide; disc with slight brownish tinge throughout, densely setose but bare behind base of submarginal vein, at least slightly truncate apically; longest marginal seta 0.16–0.19x greatest width of wing. Hind wing ( Fig. 37 View FIGURES 32–37 ) 15–17x as long as wide; disc with slight brownish tinge and densely setose throughout except for sparser setae or a small bare area just behind and beyond apex of venation; longest marginal seta 1.7–2.0x greatest width of wing.

Pro- and mesocoxae smooth, metacoxa with weak reticulate sculpture.

Gaster ( Fig. 36 View FIGURES 32–37 ) longer than mesosoma; petiole 2.6–3.3x as long as wide, wider apically than basally, smooth, 0.9–1.1x as long as metacoxa; ovipositor relatively long, occupying at least 0.9x length of gaster, usually notably exserted beyond apex of gaster (by 0.08–0.16x own length), 1.2–1.4x length of metatibia.

Measurements (µm) of the holotype: Mesosoma: 480; petiole: 136; gaster: 670; ovipositor: 707. Antenna: radicle: 61; rest of scape: 209; pedicel: 75; F1: 67; F2: 64; F3: 68; F4: 68; F5: 68; F6: 67; F7: 67; F8: 62; clava: 248. Forewing: 1390:480; longest marginal seta: 79. Hind wing: 1046:70; longest marginal seta: 121. Legs (given as coxa, femur, tibia, tarsus): fore: 136, 294, 302, 316; middle: 124, 309, 464, 315; hind: 145, 330, 517, 327.

MALE. Unknown.

Diagnosis. Ooctonus lokomotiv sp. n. is similar to the somewhat larger O. insignis Haliday (both species have 8 mps on the clava of the female antenna), from which it differs in having usually 1 mps on F3 of the female antennae and a relatively longer ovipositor, as indicated in the key.

Hosts. Unknown.

Etymology. This species name (a noun in apposition) is that of FC Lokomotiv Moskva (Moscow, Russia) of the Russian Football (Soccer) Premier League.
