( Figs 47–56 ) Material examined (1 ♀). – Female holotype : Korea , Chungbuk , Chungju Sanrim , Hyangsan , 23 May 1993 , leg. DEOK- SEO KU . – Holotype is deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum ( Department of Zoology ), Budapest , Hym. Typ. No. 10976. Holotype is in good condition: right ovipositor sheath just broken medially; specimen itself glued on a pointed card somewhat laterally by mesosternum (between coxae 1–2) and lowest part of mesopleuron . Etymology. – The species name “turgida” refers to the bulged temple in dorsal view. Description of the female holotype . – Body 2.2 mm long. Antenna as long as body and with 16 antennomeres. Flagellum filiform, flagellomeres elongate and hairy (hairs about 2/3rds to 3/4ths length of flagellomeres); first flagellomere 4.5 times as long as broad apically and a bit longer than second flagellomere, further ones gradually shortening so that penultimate one twice as long as broad. – Head in dorsal view ( Fig. 47 ) transverse, twice as broad as long (across eye + temple) and 1.8 times as broad as long medially; temple bulging, i.e. head between temples broader than between eyes; eye indistinctly longer than temple, occiput excavated. Eye in lateral view 1.5 times as high as wide, temple just wider than eye ( Fig. 48 , see arrows). Mandible ( Fig. 49 ) 1.4 times as long as broad between upper and lower teeth, middle tooth pointed, upper and lower teeth rounded. Face twice as wide as high, medially without keel or furrow. Paraclypeal pit long clearly reaching compound eye. Head polished, face medially and clypeus hairy. Mesosoma in lateral view 1.35 times as long as high, polished. Pronope present. Notaulix on declivous part of mesoscutum fairly deep and continuing as a shallowing and less distinct furrow up to middle of mesoscutum, with a few hairs along notaulix. Mesoscutum and scutellum bare, polished. Precoxal suture restricted to middle of mesopleuron, with a few crenulae. Propodeum anteriorly with a transverse carina, beyond it rugose, pair of spiracles middle-sized ( Fig. 50 ). – Hind femur 3.8 times as long as broad distally ( Fig. 51 ). Hind tarsus a bit longer than hind tibia; hind basitarsus equal in length to tarsomeres 2–3 and half of tarsomere 4 combined. Fore wing as long as body. Pterostigma ( Fig. 52 ) narrow, cuneiform, ten times as long as wide, issuing r from its proximal third, r somewhat longer than width of pterostigma; second submarginal cell fairly long, clearly narrowing distally, 3–SR 1.45 times as long as 2–SR ; SR1 long, clearly three times length of 3–SR and reaching tip of wing; metacarp ( 1–R1 ) slightly less wide than pterostigma. Vein m–cu clearly postfurcal. First subdiscal cell closed distally, CU1a issuing just posteriorly ( Fig. 53 ?). – Hind wing: cu–a issuing from M+Cu + 1–M just distally from its middle ( Fig. 54 ). First tergite ( Fig. 55 ) long, weakly broadening posteriorly, twice as long as broad behind, dorsope anteriorly, pair of spiracles at middle of tergite, pair of converging keels merging behind into fine striation of tergite. Border between tergites 2–3 indistinct, somewhat longer than first tergite, together with further tergites polished. Metasoma laterally not compressed. Ovipositor sheath as long as hind tarsomeres 1–2 combined. Ovipositor weakly upcurved, its posterior end as in Fig. 56 . Figs 47–56.

Scape, pedicel and flagellomeres 1–2 brownish yellow, flagellum brown. Mandible yellow, palpi pale yellow. Tegula and legs yellow, hind tibia and tarsus very faintly darkening. Wings hyaline, pterostigma and veins brownish yellow. Male and host unknown. Distribution: Korea . The new species, Aspilota turgida , is nearest to A. deserta PAPP considering their bulged temple, length and form of first tergite, distally broadening hind femur and relatively short second submarginal cell; the two species are distinguished by a few features keyed: 1 (2) Male: Head in dorsal view less broad, 1.75 times as broad as long (across eye + temple), temple slightly more bulged and 1.25 times length of eye ( Fig. 57 ). Middle tooth of mandible long and less wide basally, lower tooth less rounded ( Fig. 58 ). Second submarginal cell a bit longer, 3–SR 1.5 times as long as 2–SR ( Fig. 59 ). Propodeum rugo-scrobiculate ( Fig. 60 ). Antenna with 19 antennomeres. Body black, tergites 1–2 reddish yellow. ♂: 2.8 mm . – Mongolia A. deserta PAPP, 1967 Figs 57–65. 57–60. Aspilota deserta PAPP : 57 = head in dorsal view, 58 = mandible, 59 = distal part of right fore wing, 60 = propodeum. – 61–65. A. inflatitempus FISCHER : 61 = mandible, 62 = head in dorsal view, 63 = distal part of right fore wing, 64–65 = propodeum 2 (1) Female: Head in dorsal view broad, twice as broad as long (across eye + temple), eye indistinctly longer than temple ( Fig. 47 ). Middle tooth of mandible less long and wide basally, lower tooth rounded ( Fig. 49 ). Second submarginal cell a bit shorter, 3–SR 1.4 times as long as 2–SR ( Fig. 52 ). Propodeum rugose, with a less distinct transverse carina ( Fig. 50 ). Antenna with 16 antennomeres. Body brown to dark brown, first tergite ochre yellow. ♀: 2.2 mm . – Korea A. turgida sp. n. With the help of FISCHER’ s key (1976: 345–357) the new species runs to A. inflatitempus FISCHER , however, the two species differ from each other as follows ( FISCHER 1974 ): 1 (2) Upper and lower teeth of mandible equal in size and similarly rounded ( Fig. 61 ). Temple in dorsal view more bulging ( Fig. 62 ). Second submarginal cell long, 3–SR 1.6–1.75 times as long as 2–SR , r 2–2.5 times longer than width of pterostigma ( Fig. 63 ). Propodeum with a five-sided areola basalis, laterally rugulose ( Fig. 64 ), or areola basalis less distinct and propodeum more rugo–rugulose ( Fig. 65 ). Body blackish to black, pronotum with faint rusty suffusion. ♀: 1.6–1.8 mm . – Austria , Hungary , Korea A. inflatitempus FISCHER, 1974 2(1) Upper and lower teeth of mandible unequal in size, lower tooth greater and widely rounded ( Fig. 49 ). Temple in dorsal view less bulging ( Fig. 47 ). Second submarginal cell less long, 3–SR 1.4 times as long as 2–SR , r somewhat longer than width of pterostigma ( Fig. 52 ). Propodeum with a less distinct transverse carina, areola basalis rather rounded ( Fig. 50 ). Body brown to dark brown, pronotum ochre yellow. ♀: 2.2 mm . – Korea A. turgida sp. n.
