The genus Streblocera Westwood (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Euphorinae) from India, with descriptions of 9 new species

Abstract

Nine new species of the subgenus Eutanycerus of the genus Streblocera Westwood are described. Tese are: Streblocera (Eutanycerus) achterbergi sp. nov., S. (E.) aurrayyus sp. nov., S. (E.) etawahiana sp. nov., S. (E.) hayati sp. nov., S. (E.) kanpurensis sp. n o v., S. (E.) levipleuron sp. nov., S. (E.) sharif sp. nov., S. (E.) shawi sp. nov., and S. (E.) shujauddini sp. nov. Tis genus was previously recorded from India based on a species identifed as S. macroscapa (Ruthe). However, the available specimens in the Department of Zoology at Aligarh Muslim University do not permit a defnite confrmation of the species. A key to the Indian species of Streblocera (Eutanycerus) is given. © TÜBİTAK.
