Second funicular segment elongated, tapering apically; mesosoma with distinct rugulose microsculpture. Comments. This species differs from all congeners in the unjoined funicular and club segments of the male antenna, and the two-segmented maxillary palp ( Pinto 1992 ). Trichogramma clotho and T. atropos are the only species of the subgenus Vanlisus recorded in South America ( Querino et al . 2017 ). The distinctive rugulose microsculpture readily differentiates it from T . atropos , a closely similar species. Only the type material is known. Type repository .
