Russia : ’city Soch, Lazarevskoe, 8-9.V.1975 ’ (Tobias) (ZIN. St. Petersburg )—examined. Diagnosis : Meteorus micropilosus is similar to M. brevicauda but M. micropilosus has a postfurcal vein m-cu and narrow clypeus, whereas M. brevicauda has an antefurcal m-cu vein and a very broad clypeus that almost reaches the eyes. Studied material : Holotype . Description : Size about 3 mm . Antennae with 27 articles, all articles at least twice as long as broad. Head rounded behind eyes; a vague punctuated line going from the fore ocellus in between the antennae. Ocelli small, OOL=3. Eyes smaller, protuberant, not convergent. Malar space slightly less than the basal breadth of mandible. Face wider than high, not protuberant. Clypeus slightly protuberant with a few small punctures. Tentorial pits small. Mandibles stout and only slightly twisted. Precoxal sulcus wide, clearly invaginated. Propodeum with all carinae strongly raised, smooth in between. Petiolar tergum rather stout with distinct dorsal pits and large glymmae, noticeably angulate at spiracles; surface rugose centrally turning in to lineate structure laterally; ventral borders of petiolar tergum separated; Ovipositor short, about 1.5–2 times length of petiolar tergum. Hind coxa smoothpunctate; tarsal claws slender. Colour black; clypeus and legs yellow-brown. Pterostigma dark with only small light apical corner. Fore wing vein m-cu postfurcal. Distribution : Russia . Biology : The Holotype was caught in the beginning of May in a forest with terrace slopes by the city of Soch , Lazarevskoe in Russia .
