Metasomal tergites 1+2+3, 9. Fore tibia (inner side). Colour . Antenna brown; palpi yellow; head, mesosoma, metasoma and fore leg yellow; middle leg brownish yellow but tibia laterally and tarsus yellow, hind leg dark brown but fourth tarsus and telotarsus pale brown; hind coxal dorsal curved tooth brown; wing membrane brownish, some parts darker than others ( Fig. 7 ); veins brown. Variation. Males: body length 8.0- 9.5 mm ; fore wing 5.5-6.4 mm ; antenna with 45-47 segments; inner side of fore tibia with 4-6 thick spines; body colour of male same as of female. Etymology. “bi” (Latin for “two”), “coloris” (Latin for “hue, tint”) and “corpus” (Latin for “body”), because of the bicoloured body. Remarks Zombrus bicoloricorpus sp. n. differs from Z. flavicorpus sp. n. as indicated in the key. In addition, this new species can be distinguished by having a) vein 1r-m of hind wing much shorter (0.4 ×) than vein 1-M; b) propodeum and metasoma dark brown contrasting with yellow of head and mesonotum; and fore wing entirely brown. Zombrus bicoloricorpus sp. n. differs from Z. striolatus (Szépligeti) by the following characters: a) Distance between posterior ocelli (POL) 0.6 × as long as ocellus diameter (OD) (as long as in Z. striolatus ); b) OOL 2.6 × as long as POL (1.25 × in Z. striolatus ); c) Malar space 1.8 × basal width of mandible (slightly longer in Z. striolatus ); d) In lateral view, eye 1.5 × as long as wide (1.25 × in Z. striolatus ); and e) Fore and hind wings entirely dark brown (basal third of fore wing, basal half of hind wing yellow in Z. striolatus ).
