The doryctine tribe Rhaconotini (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is a cosmopolitan group of parasitoid wasps\ that currently comprises 13 valid genera. Despite the extensive taxonomic studies carried out for this\ tribe, its generic limits are still unclear due to the considerable variation of its diagnostic morphological\ features. Here we assessed the evolutionary relationships among representative species of eight rhaconotine\ genera based on mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequence data. We also performed ancestral\ character reconstruction analyses of morphological features that are diagnostic at the genus level and\ assessed the times of origin and main diversification events in the tribe. The Rhaconotini was significantly\ supported as monophyletic. The widely distributed, speciose genus Rhaconotus Ruthe as well as\ Ipodoryctes Granger were recovered as non-monophyletic. Rhaconotus species with five visible metasomal\ tergites were nested in a single clade with the monotypic Aptenobracon Marsh, which also has this\ morphological feature. Most Rhaconotus species with six or more visible tergites were intermingled with\ other Oriental and Afrotropical genera that share this condition. The ancestral character reconstruction\ analyses of the remaining morphological features showed that they probably were gained and lost\ repeatedly during the evolution of the group. The origin and early diversification events in the Rhaconotini\ were estimated to occur during the late Eocene to mid-Miocene. Our results highlight the\ importance of assessing the evolution of diagnostic morphological features to improve the supraspecific\ classification of insect taxa with extensive morphological homoplasy.

For the first time an ichneumonoid parasitoid is reported from the peach flatheaded rootborer Capnodis tenebrionis (Linnaeus, 1758) (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) in a heavily infested plum and apricot orchard in south-western Sicily. In 2005 and 2006 the ecology of the ectoparasitoid Spathius erythrocephalus Wesmael, 1838, (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) was studied. The larvae are ectophagous and gregarious; obviously the parasitoid search for the large buprestid larval (6.0 \± 0.4 cm). The adult parasitoid appeared in both cultivations in August and/or September and selected only the mature larvae for oviposition. In 2006 35\% of the rootborer larvae on plum were parasitized. Significant differences were found between the mean\ depth in the soil in which parasitized and non-parasitized larvae were found, although C. tenebrionis larvae closest to the level of the soil surface are the easier to reach. The parasitoid is able to search for and parasitize host larvae up to a soil depth of 20 cm. No significant difference was found in the distribution of the parasitoid with respect to the compass orientation within the tree. Spathius erythrocephalus is a new promising antagonist for the biological control of the noxious peach flatheaded rootborer.

The braconid wasp subfamily Doryctinae mainly comprises idiobiont ectoparasitoids of other insect larvae. In recent years, however, members of a few genera have been discovered to be associated with galls from various unrelated host plant families, with some of these being gall inducers whereas others are suspected as being predators of gallers. Because of their considerable morphological differences, these gall-associated taxa traditionally have been placed in separate tribes or even in other subfamilies. In this study, we investigate the phylogenetic relationships among representatives of a number of different doryctine genera, including five of its seven gall-associated genera using two genetic markers. Here we analyzed the length-variable 28S sequence data based on secondary structure both excising the unalignable regions and recoding them according to indel length. In addition, multiple alignments were carried out with a range of gap-opening and extension parameters. The combined (28S+CO1) phylogenetic hypotheses obtained, both excluding and recoding the unalignable regions, recover a clade comprising the five gall-associated genera, and most of the analyses using multiple alignments also support this relationship. These results support a scenario in which secondary phytophagy evolves from initially attacking primary gall-forming hosts. The relationships recovered are also more congruent with a model that explains the macroevolution of insect plant association in the Doryctinae as reflecting geographic proximity rather than host plant relationships. Further, our phylogenetic hypotheses consistently show that one of the main morphological features employed in the higher level classification of the Doryctinae is actually highly homoplastic.

Background and aims. The preliminary results of a DNA barcoding study of the doryctine fauna of parasitoid wasps from the Chamela\–Cuixmala Biosphere Reserve in Mexico, a region dominated by tropical dry forest, are presented. So far, three field trips have been carried out to the reserve and 468 specimens have been collected, of which 407 cox1 sequences were obtained.
Materials and methods. The general mixed Yule-coalescent model was applied to a phylogram to investigate the number of evolutionary units that can be detected from the DNA sequence data examined.
Results. A total of 185 barcoding species assigned to 20 identified doryctine genera were discriminated using the above model, 115 of which belong to the speciose genus Heterospilus, pointing out the extraordinary species richness of this subfamily of insects in a Mexican tropical dry forest.
Conclusion. On the basis of the DNA barcodes generated, Ptesimogastroides Braet \& van Achterberg is proposed to be a junior synonym of Ptesimogaster Marsh syn. nov. Neoheterospilus was also found deeply nested within a large Heterospilus clade, suggesting the paraphyly of the latter genus.

From French Guyana four new genera of the subfamily Doryctinae Foerster, 1862 (Hymenoptera: Braconidae)\ with six new species (Lamquetia gen. nov.; type species: L. rufa Braet \& van Achterberg, spec.\ nov., L. marshi Braet \& Barbalho, spec. nov.), Ondigus gen. nov. (type species: O. bicolor spec. nov.),\ Neostaphius gen. nov. (type species: N. striatus spec. nov.), and Dapsilitas gen. nov. (type species: D.\ bicolor spec. nov.; D. robustisoma Braet \& van Achterberg, spec. nov.) are described. In addition, three\ new species of the genera Achterbergia Marsh, 1993 (A. cornicoxa Braet \& Barbalho, spec. nov.), Aphelopsia\ Marsh, 1993 (A. striata Braet \& Barbalho, spec. nov.) and Nervellius Roman, 1923 (N. exquisitus Braet\ \& Barbalho, spec. nov.) are described. Additional distributional data on Achterbergia arawak Marsh,\ 1993; Aphelopsia annulicornis Marsh, 1993; and Ptesimogasteroides cerdai Braet \& van Achterberg, 2001,\ are given. The internal microsculpture of the ovipositor of P. cerdai is illustrated. The genus Sharkeyelloides\ Marsh, 2002, is synonymized with Ptesimogastroides Braet \& van Achterberg, 2001 (syn. nov.).\ Keys to the species of the genera Achterbergia Marsh, Aphelopsia Marsh, Nervellius Roman, Lamquetia\ gen. nov., Dapsilitas gen. nov. and Ptesimogastroides Braet \& van Achterberg are given.

The species of the genus Spathius Nees without the first radiomedial vein in the forewing and the status of the subgenera Antespathius Belokobylskij and Ambispathius Belokobylskij of this genus are discussed. Six new species from the species groups S. antennalis Sz\épligeti and S. rusticulus Wilkinson and the genus Ambispathius Belokobylskij from Vietnam are described and illustrated: S. alahamatus, n.sp., S. maichauensis, n.sp., S. pacoensis, n.sp., S. sterlingi, n.sp., S. subanervus, n.sp., and S. tramlapus, n.sp. A key to Spathius species characterized by reduction of the first radiomedial vein in the forewing is provided.
