Abstract
A new species of Horismenus Walker, H. saturnus Schoeninger & Hansson (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae), is described from material reared from eggs of an unidentified species of Saturniidae (Lepidoptera). The new species is compared to H. cupreus (Ashmead, 1894), a species it is very similar to, and to H. ancillus (Brèthes), a species with the same type of host as H. saturnus. A total of 30 adult specimens developed from the eggs of Saturniidae. This is the second record of a Horismenus species parasitizing eggs of Saturniidae and the first record of this host from Brazil. Here, we provide a diagnosis and description of the new species including morphological and molecular characters, and multiple illustrations.
Horismenus saturnus n. sp. (Hymenoptera, Eulophidae) a New Parasitoid Wasp from Eggs of Saturniidae (Lepidoptera) from the Atlantic Forest, Minas Gerais, Brazil.
H. saturnus Schoeninger & Hansson (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) 描述了一个 Horismenus Walker 的新种，其材料来自一个未确定的 Saturniidae（鳞翅目）物种的卵。cupreus (Ashmead, 1894) 非常相似，也与 H. ancillus (Brèthes) 相似，后者与 H. saturnus 的寄主类型相同。共有 30 个成虫标本从土星虫卵中发育而成。这是Horismenus物种寄生于Saturniidae卵的第二个记录，也是巴西该寄主的第一个记录。在此，我们提供了该新种的诊断和描述，包括形态学和分子特征，以及多幅插图。
