The species diversity composition and phenological behaviour of four braconid subfamilies (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Agathidinae, Braconinae, Doryctinae and Macrocentrinae) were monitored in three vegetation communities (dune vegetation, tropical deciduous forest and savannah) of the Ria Lagartos Biosphere Reserve (RLBR) in Yucatan, Mexico. Braconid wasps were collected with Malaise traps every 15 days over one year (June 2008 to June 2009). A total of 2,476 specimens were inventoried comprising 233 species and 63 genera. The composition of braconids and their lifestyles differed among the three vegetation communities studied. Doryctinae was the most diverse and abundant subfamily in RLBR (40 genera, 145 species, 990 specimens) and the tropical deciduous forest recorded the maximum abundance and diversity (H’= 4.1; alpha value= 1.059), with 61 exclusive species. Phenological sequence indicates an influence of the rainy season in braconid diversity, but its effects differed among braconid subfamilies and among the vegetation communities. Finally, the importance of the RBRL as a conservation site for this hymenopterous wasp is discussed.

Stenocorse (Braconidae) is a doryctine wasp genus widely distributed from southern USA to central Argentina, and it has been reported to be ectoparasitoid of over 60 bruchine (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) species. The genus currently contains a single described species, S. bruchivora (Crawford), though recent molecular and morphological evidence revealed that it is actually composed of various undescribed species. Here we redescribe S. bruchivora (Crawford) and describe five new species from various geographic regions along the Neotropics (S. atlanticus sp. nov., S. maesoi sp. nov., S. pacificus sp. nov., S. rosabricenae sp. nov., S. sudamericanus sp. nov.) We could not morphologically distinguish S. atlanticus sp. nov. from S. pacificus sp. nov., though they can be consistently delimited both geographically and with mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequence data. We include information about the host plant legumes where the recognised species of Stenocorse and their associated bruchines were reared. A key to the recognised species of Stenocorse is provided.

The braconid subfamily Doryctinae is a cosmopolitan, highly diverse group of wasps mainly represented by parasitoid species. In this subfamily, however, there is a group of mainly Neotropical genera whose species are associated with galls of several vascular plant families. Previous molecular phylogenetic studies based on a few markers consistently recovered the monophyly of this group, though various relationships among genera and the monophyly of its most speciose genus, Allorhogas Gahan, remained unresolved. We characterized the mitogenomes of 13 representative species of the gall-associated doryctine clade and performed a phylogenomic analysis with both mitogenome and ultraconserved element (UCE) DNA sequence data to assess the classification of Doryctinae and to examine the evolution of phytophagy within the group. We found different patterns of tRNA gene rearrangements, two of which are present in most of the ingroup taxa. All phylogenetic analyses yielded highly similar, well-supported topologies that are congruent with relationships reported in previous studies. The resulting phylogenies confirmed Percnobracon as sister to the remaining genera and supported two separate clades whose genera are exclusively associated with Ficus (Moraceae). Allorhogas is confirmed to be polyphyletic. The combined evidence also supported a main Allorhogas clade composed of multiple phytophagous species that feed on at least five different host plant families. Further rearing records and phylogenetic studies are needed to examine host plant shifts and to broaden our understanding of a poorly studied radiation of gall-associated wasps.

Stenocorse is a monotypic genus with wide distribution and a large range of beetle hosts. We analyzed the morphological variation of 346 specimens from the USA south to Brasil. We studied 15 morphometric and 30 discrete characters using principal component (PCA) and discriminant function analyses (DFA) to assess character informativeness and the influence of geographic distribution and host source to detect differentiation. Mexican samples were studied according to location and biogeographic provinces. Specimens from Colombia were studied according to the plant where the host was recorded. Three measurements show group differentiation whereas four were redundant. Three groups of individuals were supported by continuous and discrete characters: one found in the USA, Mexico, Nicaragua and Costa Rica, a second from Mexico, and a third from Colombia and Brazil. These groups showed poor agreement with the differentiation of its common beetle host populations. This could be a consequence of the large number of sympatric host species feeding on a large number of plant species. This research shed light on other sources of evidence for building a sound taxonomy for Stenocorse.

Stenocorse (Braconidae: Doryctinae) is an ectoparasitoid wasp genus widely distributed from southern U.S.A. to central Argentina, which is known to attack over 60 bruchine beetle species that feed on a variety of legumes. This genus currently comprises a single described species, S. bruchivora (Crawford, 1910), though it is probably composed of additional, morphologically similar species. In this study we investigated genetic structure, species limits and evolutionary relationships of sampled populations of Stenocorse obtained along its known geographic distribution, with an emphasis on the Mexican territory. For this, we generated DNA sequences from both the mitochondrial (mt) barcoding locus and nuclear genome data obtained with the 3RAD technique. The Bayesian phylogenetic reconstructions based on the two datasets were mostly congruent, both showing clear geographic structure. Four clusters were recovered with nuclear data, which were also congruent with the geographic distribution of the samples and the species delimitation analyses. We delimited six evolutionary lineages with the two data sources, and three additional species were also delimited with the COI locus alone. Stenocorse probably originated during the mid‐ to early Miocene, and the diversification events that led to its current species distribution probably occurred between the early Pliocene and late Pleistocene. Our species delineation analyses, phylogenetic reconstructions and rearing records suggest that the species of Stenocorse have generalist feeding habits, contrary to what was expected due to host plant specialization of the bruchine species and the cascading effect that this could have in the species diversification of their parasitoids.

Braconidae has about 19,500 valid species, and Doryctinae is one of its most diverse subfamilies with over 1000 species in about 180 genera. However, the authors point out that the greater diversity of the group lies in the Neotropics, where there are about 70% of the genera. In Brazil, have been recorded near 60 genera, 32 for the Brazilian Amazon. However, these genera are known only by their type-localities, and their identification is so hardy due to the lack of keys for the region, and the ones that exist belongs to other regions and are outdated. Thus, the objective here was to conduct a taxonomic study of the Doryctinae genera occurring in the Brazilian Amazon. For its realization, mainly material from Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia (INPA) and Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi (MPEG) were analyzed, besides other entomological collections of the Amazon region. The material was identified in part through the keys of Marsh (1997 and 2002) to the New World and Costa Rica, respectively and original descriptions. It was possible to analyze more than 900 specimens classified into 44 existing genera, beyond recognition of seven new genera and three new species, all here described. Barbalhoa Marsh, Curtiselloides Marsh, Pannuceus Marsh, Percnobracon Kieffer, Vanderentiellus Marsh and Bolivar Zaldívar-Riverón & Rodríguez-Jiménez are new records for Brazil, while Aphelopsia Marsh, Neoheterospilus Belokobylskij, Panama Marsh and Ptesimogastroides Braet & van Achterberg are news for the Brazilian Amazon region; besides 24 genera had their records expanded within this region. The subfamily was recorded in almost all the states that comprise the Brazilian Amazon, except for Tocantins and Mato Grosso. The largest number of genera was found in Amazonas (44), followed by Pará (23) and Roraima (20). It is suggested that further collection efforts should be concentrated on those states that had fewer genera registered (Rondônia, Mato Grosso, Tocantins and Maranhão) and also have greater risk of loss of biodiversity due to deforestation. The taxonomic analysis suggests the existence of a possible synonymy of Johnsonius Marsh under Semirhytus Szépligeti, and Aphelopsia Marsh under Callihormius Ashmead. The Notiospathius Matthews & Marsh and Allorhogas Gahan have a great diversity within the region and should be studied separately in the future, considering the possibility of discovering new species in the first, and a better definition of it limits in the second.

The evolutionary relationships among most (143 genera) of the currently recognized genera of the braconid wasp subfamily Doryctinae were investigated using maximum parsimony analysis, employing 100 characters from external morphology and four additional, less well-studied character systems (male genitalia, ovipositor structure, venom apparatus and larval cephalic structure). We investigated the ‘performance’ of characters from external morphology and the other character systems and the effects of abundant missing entries by comparing the data decisiveness, retention and consistency indices of four different character partitions. The results indicate that the performances of the different partitions are not related to the proportions of missing entries, but instead are negatively correlated to their proportion of informative characters, suggesting that the morphological information in this group is subject to high levels of homoplasy. The external morphological partition is significantly incongruent with respect to a data set comprising the other character systems based on the ILD test. Analyses supported neither the monophyly of the large tribes Doryctini and Hecabolini, nor the monophyly of the Spathiini and Heterospilini. Relationships obtained from successive approximation weighting analysis for the complete data differ considerably from the currently accepted tribal and subtribal classifications. The only exceptions were the Ypsistocerini and the Ecphylini, whose recognized members were recovered in single clades. A close relationship between the Binaerini and Holcobraconini, and also Monarea, is consistently supported by venom apparatus and ovipositor structure characters but is not indicated by external morphological data. Low bootstrap values obtained for most of the recovered clades in all analyses do not allow us to propose a meaningful reclassification for the group at this time. A complete list of the recognized genera and their synonymies is given.

The phylogenetic relationships among representatives of 64 genera of the cosmopolitan parasitic wasps of the subfamily Doryctinae were investigated based on nuclear 28S ribosomal (r) DNA (~650 bp of the D2–3 region) and cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) mitochondrial (mt) DNA (603 bp) sequence data. The molecular dating of selected clades and the biogeography of the subfamily were also inferred. The partitioned Bayesian analyses did not recover a monophyletic Doryctinae, though the relationships involved were only weakly supported. Strong evidence was found for rejecting the monophylies of both Doryctes Haliday, 1836 and Spathius Nees, 1818. Our results also support the recognition of the Rhaconotini as a valid tribe. A dispersal–vicariance analysis showed a strong geographical signal for the taxa included, with molecular dating estimates for the origin of Doryctinae and its subsequent radiation both occurring during the late Paleocene–early Eocene. The divergence time estimates suggest that diversification in the subfamily could have in part occurred as a result of continental break-up events that took place in the southern hemisphere, though more recent dispersal events account for the current distribution of several widespread taxa.

A comprehensive taxonomic study is presented for the 63 genera and 172 species of braconid wasp subfamily Doryctine occurring in Costa Rica. Of these, 12 genera and 119 species are described as new to science. The speciose genus Heterospilus is excluded from this study. Keys for identification of the genera and species are provided and each genus and species is described and illustrated. Several genera previously describe from South America or other parts of Central America are recorded for the first time from Costa Rica. One new synonymy is proposed: the genus Achterbergia Marsh is considered a junior synonym of the genus Aivalykus Nixon (n.syn.). Two new combinations are proposed: Achterbergia arawak Marsh is transferred to Aivalykus (n. comb.); Platydoryctes amazonensis Barbalho and Penteado-Dias is transferred to the new genus Angelica (n.comb.). Very little is known about the biology of doryctine wasps,but where host records are available most species appear to be idiobiont ectoparasitoids of wood boring beetle larvae. However, three genera in Costa Rica depart remarkably from this biology: several species of Allorhogas and Labania have been reared from leaf and seed galls on various plant, and species of Psenobolus develop as inquilines in figs. A checklist of the Costa Rican Doryctinae is provided. A Spanish translation of the key to genera is included as an appendix.
