). The sexual dimorphism can be quite extensive in many species, especially where colouration or metasomal shape is concerned. In general, females have a mostly black face, often with some yellow markings, while the face of most males is entirely yellow. However, there are numerous exceptions to this rule, and the external genitalia should be taken into consideration when determining the sex of a specimen. In the following, I discuss the utility, the different states, intra-specific variability and visibility of different morphological characters or character systems in order to facilitate the use of the identification keys and species diagnoses. After discussing measurements, sculpture and colouration in general, I arrange the characters according to their appearance on the adult wasp, starting with the antennae and proceeding back from there.

. In general, length and width were measured at the longest or widest part of a body part. The relative length and width of the first three tergites proved very useful in several genera, and the observed range of ratios is given for those. Tergite length was always measured in lateral view and along the side of the tergites, and width at the broadest position in the posterior quarter of the tergite.

: Colouration of diplazontines is particularly variable and thus provides a large number of characters, some of which are highly informative at species and even at higher levels. I use the same expressions as previous authors to denote colours in diplazontines, with the exception of using “orange” for a colour that was usually referred to as “red” in the literature. This is first in order to more accurately report the situation in the observed specimens, and second to distinguish this prevalent color from a darker, truly red colouration found in some species. When using colour characters, one should bear in mind that older specimens often lose a lot of their colouration, especially if kept in alcohol, and a black metasoma can thus appear brown and a yellow spot almost white in older material. The expressions “dark”, “black” and “brown” can thus be interpreted as being largely interchangeable.

The conical sensilla are always distinctly shorter than the trichodeal sensilla and are often difficult to see in light microscopy, as they only appear as a matt, velvety pile. Their presence is more easily deduced from the absence of multiporous plate sensilla on the ventral surface, which can be assessed by comparing the ventral to the dorsal surface of the antenna.

for instance, the metasoma of some species is laterally compressed only at the tip, gradually tapering from the third segment, while it is strongly compressed from the base of the third segment to the apex in others. The metasoma can be so strongly compressed that it is almost blade-like, visible only as a line when viewed from above. Lateral compression or strong depression is in some species combined with tergites that extend further back laterally than medially, rendering their hind margins concave when viewed from above. The functional significance of these modifications is not fully understood, but some species of

, the degree of concavity of the tergites varies considerably between individuals, from indistinct to quite strong. For the other genera, this character is reliable at least in females. Concave hind margins of the tergites are also present in males of some species but are far less distinct, and males thus require special attention when it comes to this character.

species, only the third spiracle is on the laterotergite; in all other diplazontines, they are both on the dorsal parts of the tergites, above the lateral folds. The laterotergite is usually inflexed in dried specimens; especially the spiracle of the second tergite might in such cases be difficult to see. Its location on the laterotergite can then be deduced from its absence from the dorsal part of the tergite, but care should be taken not to mistake the sometimes conspicuous, irregularly oval muscle insertion on the second tergite for a spiracle. For the third tergite, the situation is a bit more complicated. Especially in species with a laterally compressed metasoma, the fold separating the dorsal from the lateral part of the tergite is often indistinct at the level of the spiracle. The latter is then often located rather behind than below the lateral fold. However, if the spiracle is dorsal, it is often distinctly so, and in case of doubt, a positioning on the same level as the fold should be regarded as being below.

Because these characters require dissection of the male metasoma, I have not included them in the keys but only refer to the respective states in the genus diagnoses. The value of these structures for species delimitation are not well understood. While considerable variation can be observed, it is unclear how much of it is inter- and how much intra-specific. Furthermore, preparation of the tergites can result in some artifacts because of convexity of the sclerites. I thus only used these character sources for higher-level taxonomy.
