Figure 282 Female. Body size: 2.5 mm. Color: head with vertex and temple brown, face yellow, mesosoma and metasoma brown, apical metasomal terga lighter brown; scape yellow without lateral brown stripe; flagellum brown; wing veins including stigma brown; legs yellow. Head: vertex smooth; frons smooth; face weakly striate and partially smooth; temple in dorsal view broad, width equal to 1/2 eye width; malar space equal to 1/4 eye height; ocell-ocular distance about 2.5 times diameter of lateral ocellus; 20 flagellomeres. Mesosoma: mesoscutal lobes granulate; notauli scrobiculate, meeting posteriorly in triangular costate-rugose area; scutellum granulate; prescutellar furrow with 1 strong median carina and weaker carinae laterally; mesopleuron granulate; precoxal sulcus smooth, shorter than mesopleuron; venter smooth; propodeum with basal median areas margined, granulate, basal median carina present, long, areola distinctly margined, areolar area rugose, lateral areas entirely rugose. Wings: fore wing vein r shorter than vein 3RSa, vein 1cu-a beyond vein 1M; hind wing vein SC+R present, vein M+CU shorter than vein 1M. Metasoma: first tergum longitudinally costate-granulate, length about equal to apical width; second tergum longitudinally costate; anterior transverse groove weak but present, straight; posterior transverse groove weak but present; third tergum costate basally, smooth apically; terga 4-7 smooth; ovipositor half as long as metasoma. Holotype female. Top label (white, printed) - Costa Rica: Puntarenas [;] San Vito, Estac. Biol. [;] Las Alturas, 1500m, [;] pasture, V.1992 [;] P. Hanson; second label (red, partially printed and hand written) - HOLOTYPE [;] Heterospilus [;] siete [;] P. Marsh. Deposited in ESUW. Paratypes. Known only from the holotype. Comments. The long and distinct median basal carina of the propodeum, the brown flagellum and the ovipositor being half as long as metasoma are distinctive for this species. Etymology. The specific name is an arbitrary combination of letters. Figure 282. Heterospilus siete Marsh, sp. n., holotype.
