Corrigenda: Revision of the asychis species group of Aphelinus (Hymenoptera, Aphelinidae). Journal of Hymenoptera Research 54: 1–32. https://doi.org/10.3897/jhr.54.10457

Molecular Evidence for a Species Complex in the Genus Aphelinus (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae), with Additional Data on Aphidiine Phylogeny (Hymenoptera: Braconidae)

Mitochondrial 16s rDNAwas sequenced fromninedifferentpopulationsofAphelinidae and 10 of aphidiinae. Sequence divergences between populations within a species are low, ranging from 0 to 0.38%. Divergences among species within the same genus range from 0 to 8.71%. Aphelinus asychisWalker has a sequence divergence from the otherAphelinus spp. of 8.71%,which is evenhigher than the divergences among...

Revision of the Orasema festiva species group (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea: Eucharitidae).

The Neotropical Orasema festiva species group is revised, retaining O. festiva (Fabricius) and O. delicatula (Walker) as valid species, and describing four new species: O. alvarengai n. sp., O. caesariata n. sp., O. erwini n. sp., and O. reburra n. sp. The festiva-group is characterized by features that are unusual or unique in Orasema, including the presence of 8-11 labral digits, a smooth fac...

First report of Aphelinus semiflavus Howard, 1908 (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) in Brazil.

Temperature adaptability of two clades of Aphelinus mali (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) in China

Aphelinus mali (Haldeman) (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) is an effective natural enemy used in China to control the woolly apple aphid (Eriosoma lanigerum [Hausmann]) (WAA). Population of A. mali in China falls into two distinct genetic clades (Shandong clades and Liaoning clades). In the present results, the developmental threshold temperature of the Shandong clade (9.82 ± 1.44 °C) was lower than ...

Four new species of Aphelinidae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea) from Mexico.

Four new species of Encarsia Förster (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) from Mexico are described--E. albata Myartseva sp. n. (State of Nuevo León), E. barracas Myartseva sp. n. (State of Baja California Sur), E. chichenitza Myartseva sp. n. (State of Yucatán) and E. elenae Myartseva sp. n. (State of Tamaulipas). A key to the species of Encarsia in Mexico published in 2012 is modified to include the ne...
