Figs 56-65, 66, 67-76, 77-83 Type species. Paramannokeraia gibsoni van Achterberg & Quicke, sp. n. Gender: feminine. Etymology. From "para" (= Greek for "near" ) and the generic name Mannokeraia van Achterberg, 1995, because the new genus is related to it. Diagnosis. Antenna of ♀ with 19 segments, pedicellus much narrower than scapus and most segments moniliform (Fig. 58), of ♂ with about 28 segments and segments much longer than wide; scapus much longer and wider than pedicellus (Fig. 58); face convex medio-dorsally (Fig. 58); maxillary palp with 6 segments and labial palp with 4 segments; eyes distinctly setose; clypeus rather large and elliptical (Fig. 57), dorsally differentiated from face and ventrally flattened; face moderately convex medio-dorsally (Fig. 57); pronotal collar long (Figs 58, 62) and distinctly below level of mesoscutum; notauli nearly complete (Fig. 64); scutellum without medio-posterior depression; mesosternal sulcus distinct and crenulate; postpectal carina variable (distinct in P. gibsoni , and absent, with at most the area between middle coxae rugose in P. juliae ); vein M+CU1 of fore wing sclerotised; vein cu-a of hind wing present and comparatively close to vein 1r-m (Fig. 56); fore femur robust and flattened ventrally (Fig. 63); fore tibia without distinct spines and apically with wide tooth-like protuberance (Fig. 63); fore tibial spur medium-sized; base of fore basitarsus angulate (Fig. 64); telotarsi hardly widened (Figs 64, 65); hind tibia largely smooth between pimply protrusions; tarsal claws angularly bent and with truncate lobe (Fig. 60); propodeum without large posterior areola and median carina absent (Fig. 62), medio-posteriorly gradually lowered (Fig. 62); first tergite gradually widened posteriorly and with its spiracles submedially situated (Fig. 59) and tergite inserted near condyli of hind coxa; dorsope present (Fig. 59); laterope absent; ovipositor nearly cylindrical. Figures 56-65. Paramannokeraia gibsoni gen. n. & sp. n., ♀, holotype. 56 wings 57 head, anterior aspect 58 habitus, lateral aspect 59 first metasomal tergite, dorsal aspect 60 outer hind claw, lateral aspect 61 head, dorsal aspect 62 mesosoma, dorsal aspect 63 fore femur and tibia, lateral aspect 64 fore tarsus, dorsal aspect 65 hind leg, lateral aspect. 56, 58, 65: scale-line (= 1 x ); 57, 59, 61, 62, 64: 2.0 x ; 63: 2.2 x ; 60: 3.2 x . Distribution. Australia (two species). Notes. Because of its venation, shape of the telotarsi, submedial position of the spiracle of the first tergite and shape of the first tergite, the genus belongs to the subfamily Euphorinae within which it belongs to the tribe Planitorini . It resembles Mannokeraia , because of the small pedicellus (much narrower than the scapus; Fig. 58), apical antennal segments of the female strongly moniliform and pedunculate, the face moderately convex medio-dorsally, the lack of the medio-posterior depression of the scutellum, the robust fore femur, the setose eyes and the long pronotal collar. According to the DNA analysis by Stigenberg et al. (2015) Paramannokeraia is sister to Planitorus (sharing the presence of dorsope on the first tergite, and the ventrally flattened and narrower clypeus); the two genera forming a sister group to Mannokeraia which has the first tergite lacking dorsope, and the clypeus transverse and with a steep ventral face.
