Fourteen new species of Amputoearinus are described along with redescriptions for A. matamata Sharkey and A. fernandezi Sharkey. A phylogenetic hypothesis employing morphological characters is proposed for the species of Amputoearinus using three other genera of Agathidinae as outgroups. The fourteen new species are: Amputoearinus alafumidus sp.n.,...

?Abstract Twenty-nine species are treated, most of which have host caterpillar and food plant records, and all but one are new to science. The first host record for the agathidine genus Amputoearinus is given. Gnathopleurajosequesadai Sharkey, sp. nov. is reported as a hyperparasitoid of fly larvae, the first such record for the genus. The following new species are diagnosed primarily using COI barcode data; Sharkey is the authority for all: Agathidinae: Aerophilusdavidwagneri, Aerophilusfundacionbandorum, Aerophilusnicklaphami, Lytopylusdavidstopaki, Lytopylusdavidschindeli; Alysiinae: Gnathopleurajosequesadai; Braconinae: Braconandreamezae, Braconfranklinpaniaguai, Braconrafagutierrezi, Braconguillermoblancoi, Braconoscarmasisi, Braconpauldimaurai, Braconshebadimaurae, Saciremakarendimaurae; Cheloninae: Chelonusminorzunigai; Homolobinae: Homolobusstevestroudi; Macrocentrinae: Macrocentrusmichaelstroudi; Orgilinae: Stantoniagilbertfuentesi; Rhysipolinae: Rhysipolisstevearonsoni; Rogadinae: Aleiodeskaydodgeae, Aleiodeskerrydresslerae, Aleiodesjosesolanoi, Aleiodesjuniorporrasi, Aleiodesrocioecheverri, Aleiodesronaldzunigai, Choreborogasjesseausubeli, Triraphisdoncombi, and Yeliconesmayrabonillae.

The subfamily Agathidinae was studied in parts of northern Iran. Six species were collected and identified. Among them, Cremnops desertor (L., 1758) is recorded for the first time from Iran. Lytopylus persicus Farahani & Talebi sp. n. is described and illustrated. A key to the West Palaearctic species of the genus Lytopylus Förster and an updated checklist of Iranian Agathidinae are provided.
... The fact that a vast majority of morphotypes is represented by only one specimen, suggests that there are many more species yet to be discovered. This situation is similar to other genera of Braconidae such as Amputoearinus, Agathidinae (Lindsay & Sharkey 2006). ...

Urosigalphus Ashmead, 1889 is one of the most common genera belonging to the Brachistini tribe (Braconidae: Helconinae) with approximately 100 species restrincted to the western hemisphere. These wasps are parasites of beetles (mainly, Curculionidae and Chrysomelidae -Bruchinae) and had been rarely reported in Colombia. After a close inspection of 5072 samples collected throughout 31 areas from the project “Colombia Biodiversity Inventory” “Diversidad de Insectos de Colombia”, a total of 45 specimens of these parasitoid wasps were found. As a result, seven new localities are reported for Colombia. The genus was previously known only from the Departments of Amazonas and Antioquia. In Colombia, 22 morphotypes are new spe-cies, in description process, therefore the total number of species for America would increase considerably from 83 up to 105. After these descriptions, South America will be the region with the largest number of Urosigalphus species, followed by North and Central America. The specimens are deposited in the entomological collection Jorge Ignacio Hernández Camacho Museum of the Alexander von Humboldt Institute, Villa de Leyva (Boyacá, Colombia).
... En ambos talleres se usaron "borradores" del manual para verificar la factibilidad de las claves en la identificación de géneros, lo que indica el esfuerzo de más de cinco años para la realización de este manual. Actualmente algunos de los participantes de estos dos talleres forman parte de los autores de la literatura sobre bracónidos en México(Coronado, Delfín, Flores, Hernández, Mercado, Rosas, Sánchez), dos de ellos con estudios específicos en la Universidad de Texas A & M, en Estados Unidos y otros han formado nuevos recursos humanos a nivel licenciatura y postgrado en el área de la taxonomía de Braconidae.Posteriormente, otros especialistas mexicanos han realizado estudios en la Universidad de Kentucky en Estados Unidos y en el Imperial College en Inglaterra.A partir de 1997 se ha usado el manual como base para la identificación de especímenes mexicanos, el cual contiene los géneros descritos hasta 1994, además de alguna otra literatura de los géneros descritos posteriormente, como es el caso en Cardiochilinae(Dangerfield et al., 1999) y Agathidinae(Sharkey, 2004;Sharkey, 2005;Lindsay & Sharkey, 2006).

The genus Choeras Mason, 1981 is distributed with six species in Iran (western Asia), most of them recorded in the north. A total of 42 Choeras specimens from this country were re-examined, and some notes along with color photographs are provided. Additionally, the geographical distribution data of the known Iranian Choeras species are discussed and a distribution map is generated. Finally, a correction for the province name of the type locality is proposed for the species Choeras qazviniensis Fernandez-Triana & Talebi, 2019.

Los agathidinos forman un grupo de avispas parasitoides que atacan larvas de lepidópteros. Algunas especies se han utilizado con éxito en programas de control biológico de plagas agrícolas. El objetivo de este trabajo fue actualizar la lista de especies de Agathidinae de México e informar sobre nuevos registros para el país y algunas entidades. Se realizaron cuatro estancias en California, Estados Unidos, para revisar el material mexicano. Además, se consideró el material depositado en la Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas (UAT) y en la Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo (UMSNH). También se hizo una revisión de literatura que incluyera al menos una especie en el país. Dos especies, Agathis gibbosa (Say) y Pneumagathis spiracularis (Muesebeck), son nuevos registros para México. A nivel mundial, se conocen 51 géneros y 1 177 especies de agathidinos, y para México se registran 24 géneros y 127 especies (hasta diciembre de 2015). Aún no se ha identificado todo el material en varias colecciones del país, por lo que se estima la existencia de más géneros y especies.
