Remarks. Although it appears from the description that more than one adult wasp emerged from the gall that was being reared from, only one specimen was recovered ‘
1 mâle
obtenu’ on which the description was based, hence a
holotype
by monotypy. The
holotype
is dry-mounted on a slide; the head is disarticulated but present, otherwise complete. This species was transferred to
Inostemma
by
Masner and Huggert (1989)
