Alloxysta barbotini
Ferrer-Suay & Pujade-Villar.
Type
: deposited in
UB
.
Diagnosis
Alloxysta barbotini
is similar to
Alloxysta australiae
(Ashmead, 1900)
because both species have a closed radial cell, pronotal and propodeal carinae present, and independent propodeal carinae. They can be differentiated by the antenna (rhinaria and club shape begin on F2 (female) or F1 (male) in
A. barbotini
, but on F
4 in
A. australiae
(only female known); F2 is slightly longer than F3 and F3 is subequal to F
4 in
A. barbotini
, but F2–F4 are subequal in length in
A. australiae
), propodeal carinae (wide and not defined posteriorly in
A. barbotini
but thin and straight in
A. australiae
), and the size of the radial cell (2.1 (female) and 2.0 (male) times as long as wide in
A. barbotini
but 2.4 times in
A. australiae
).
