EURYTOMA PINETORUM
RATZEBURG, 1852
Eurytoma pinetorum
Ratzeburg, 1852: 220
. Original description.
Germany
.
Host:
Carphoborus
(=
Hylesinus
)
minimus
(Fabricius, 1798)
.
Type
material
None. The Ratzeburg collection was destroyed and all
types
lost. The short original description just quotes: ‘I put it close to
E
.
striolata
in the thoracic structure and also reared it from bark beetles. It differs from it in the fact that the ovipositor is not exerted. I could not observe the antennae as they were still within their pupal skin’ (translated from German). The host plants for
Carphoborus minimus
are
Pinus sylvestris
and
Pinus nigra
. In the discussion of
E
.
striolata
it is noted that
E
.
melanoneura
was reared several times from hosts infesting coniferous trees. For the time being we prefer to retain the name as a doubtful species.
