Contributions to the classification of North American Microctonus (Braconidae, Euphorinae) Author Pucci, Thomas M. text Zootaxa 2013 2013-10-25 3725 1 1 150 http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.3725.1.1 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.3725.1.1 1175-5326 5268043 01F895B7-6FFD-44A0-89AB-9236A3FE09AF M. nigritus (Provancher) nomen dubium Perilitus nigritus Provancher, 1888, p 379 . Microctonus nigritus Muesebeck, 1936 , p 18 . Distribution: Quebec . Specimens examined: Damaged lectotype . Flight period:? Remarks: The lectotype at the Provincial Museum, Quebec is the only known specimen. It lost but for a single leg. The specimen Muesebeck (1936) mentioned as the only other known specimen conforms with M. blapstini . Loan (1969) treated both species in his key but the present author does not recognize adequate resolution of M. nigritus in any of the literature.
