A new species of Pseudophanerotoma (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) from Nayarit, Mexico
View through CrossRef
Parasitoid wasps are known to be among the most abundant and species-rich on Earth and thus considered an ecologically important group of arthropods. Braconid wasps play a key role in regulating the populations of Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, and Diptera. However, the biology and taxonomy of numerous parasitoid species remain poorly known. In Mexico, only 17 species of the subfamily Cheloninae have been described. A new species ofPseudophanerotomaZettel, 1990 (Hymenoptera, Braconidae),P. huicholsp. nov., is described from Nayarit, Mexico. The tortricid mothCryptaspasma perseanaGilligan & Brown, 2011 is reported as the host of this parasitoid wasp. Detailed taxonomic and barcoding information are provided.
