Platygaster chloropus Thomson, 1859

England: Suffolk, Westhall , 1 female, 17–27 August 1981, Cogan, B.H. ( BMNH) ; West Berkshire, Berkshire Downs, near Streatley , 1 female, 14 June 1975, Noyes, J.S. ( BMNH) .

Ireland: Dublin, Glenasmole , 1 female, 13 June 1938, Stelfox, A.W. ( BMNH) .

Recorded from Ireland by Buhl and O’Connor (2009). This species is very similar to P. indefinita Buhl, 2006 which has less striated occiput and shorter female antennae than P. chloropus . Rearing might elucidate a possible synonymy.
