Xanthocampoplex chinensis Gupta , females from Japan—15, head, dorsal view; 16, left antenna, lateral view; 17, propodeum, dorsal view; 18–20, left hind leg, anterior (18, 19) and ventral (20) view; 21, left hind tarsal claws, anterior view; 22, apex of ovipositor, lateral view. FL: flagellomere; TS: tarsomere. Mesosoma. Lateral part of pronotum covered with longitudinal striae on ventral 0.5. Epomia weak and short. Notauli absent. Epicnemial carina complete, its dorsal end joined with anterior margin of mesopleuron ( Fig. 27 ). Mesopleuron without smooth area, speculum covered with reticulate coriaceous. Propodeum with a longitudinal weal concavity, its carinae as in Figs 17 , 29 . Lateral longitudinal carina obscured or absent. Lateromedian longitudinal carina partly absent. Area postero with some weak transverse rugae posteriorly. Fore wing length 4.8–4.9 mm . Areolet present, not sessile. Hind wing with unpigmented discoidella apically, it clearly recognizable by light reflection. Hind femur 5.4 × as long as maximum depth in lateral view. Hind tibia covered with minute (normal) setae, its dorsal surface with some short bristles ( Fig. 18 ). Longest spur of hind tibia about 0.9 × as long as hind first tarsomere ( Fig. 18 ). Hind first to fourth tarsomeres with a continuous, straight, median ventral row if very closely spaced small setae ( Figs 18–20 ). Ratio of length from hind first to fifth tarsomeres: 1.8–1.9: 1.0: 0.75: 0.5: 0.5. Metasoma. T I 2.8 × as long as maximum width, with a conspicuous, rather shallow glymma. Laterotergite of T II and T III completely separated from the tergite by a crease. Ovipositor weakly upcurved, its sheath 0.65–0.7 × as long as hind tibia. FIGS 23–29. Xanthocampoplex chinensis Gupta , females from Japan—23, lateral habitus; 24, head, mesosoma and metasoma, dorsal view; 25, head, frontal view; 26, head and mesoscutum, dorsolateral view; 27, 28, head and mesosoma, lateral (27) and ventral (28) view; 29, propodeum, dorsal view. Coloration ( Figs 23–29 ). Body (excluding wings and legs) yellow to yellowish brown, except for: apex of mandible, vertex around ocelli, occiput behind oceller area, antenna except for ventral surface of basal part, three longitudinal stripes of mesoscutum, scuto-scuteller groove, small ventral spot of anterior part of mesopleuron, a pair of basal spot of propodeum and broad band of T I to T VII black to blackish brown and base of T I whitish yellow. Subalar prominence more or less tinged with blackish brown. Wings hyaline. Veins and pterostigma dark yellowish brown to brown. Legs yellow to yellowish brown, except for: basal part of hind coxa, hind trochanter and base and apical part of hind tibia black to blackish brown. Hind femur sometimes tinged with reddish yellow.
