Key to the Indomalayan and Palaearctic genera of Diospilini

1 Vein 1r-m of hind wing distinctly longer than vein 1-M ( Fig. 5G View FIGURE 5 ); second labial palp segment short and distinctly wide ( Figs 5I View FIGURE 5 , 6E View FIGURE 6 ); second submarginal cell of fore wing narrower apically ( Figs 6D, F, M View FIGURE 6 ); medial sulcus of propleuron coarsely crenulate and deep ( Fig. 5K View FIGURE 5 ).................................................................................... 2

- Vein 1r-m of hind wing subequal to vein 1-M ( Fig. 5A View FIGURE 5 ) or shorter ( Figs 3B View FIGURE 3 , 6F, M View FIGURE 6 ), rarely longer in Diospilus View in CoL ; second labial palpomere comparatively long and slender ( Fig. 5E View FIGURE 5 ); second submarginal cell of fore wing wider or parallel apically ( Figs 3A View FIGURE 3 , 5A, J View FIGURE 5 ); medial sulcus of propleuron variable................................................................ 3

2 Tarsal claws simple ( Fig. 6C View FIGURE 6 ); clypeus at most slightly protruding medio-ventrally ( Fig. 6B View FIGURE 6 ); pronope absent or obsolescent ( Fig. 6A View FIGURE 6 )........................................................................ Aspicolpus Wesmael, 1838 View in CoL

- Tarsal claws with wide lobe ( Fig. 5C, M View FIGURE 5 ); clypeus distinctly protruding medio-ventrally ( Fig. 5L View FIGURE 5 ); pronope large and deep ( Fig. 5H View FIGURE 5 )............................................................................ Aspigonus Wesmael, 1835 View in CoL

3 Second submarginal cell of fore wing more or less parallel-sided (thus vein 3-SR equal to vein 2-M ( Figs 3A View FIGURE 3 , 5A, J View FIGURE 5 ) or longer); first flagellomere 1.0–1.6 × as long as second flagellomere or longer ( Figs 4C, D View FIGURE 4 , 5B View FIGURE 5 )............................... 4

- Second submarginal cell of fore wing distinctly narrowed anteriorly (vein 3-SR shorter than vein 2-M; Figs 6F, M View FIGURE 6 ); first flagellomere 0.9 × as long as second flagellomere ( Figs 6G, L View FIGURE 6 )...................................................... 5

4 Pronope small to medium-sized ( Fig. 5F View FIGURE 5 ); medial sulcus of propleuron medium-sized, often largely smooth and median lamellae narrow ( Fig. 5D View FIGURE 5 ); tarsal claws often with lobe ( Fig. 5C View FIGURE 5 )............................... Diospilus Haliday, 1833 View in CoL s.l.

- Pronope large ( Fig. 2B View FIGURE 2 ); medial sulcus of propleuron widened, deep, coarsely crenulate and median lamellae comparatively wide ( Figs 1F View FIGURE 1 , 2F View FIGURE 2 ); tarsal claws slender and enlarged, without basal lobe ( Fig. 4E View FIGURE 4 )....................... Atree gen. nov.

5 Dorsal carinae of first metasomal tergite curved and tergite robust ( Fig. 6H View FIGURE 6 ); base of mandible slightly depressed basally ( Fig. 6I View FIGURE 6 ); vein CU1b of fore wing absent ( Fig. 6F View FIGURE 6 )............................................. Taphaeus Wesmael, 1835 View in CoL

- Dorsal carinae of first metasomal tergite straight and tergite elongate ( Fig. 6K View FIGURE 6 ); base of mandible distinctly depressed basally ( Fig. 6J View FIGURE 6 ); vein CU1b of fore wing present ( Fig. 6M View FIGURE 6 ).................................
