Three New Species

AbstractThree new species of Tabanidae egg parasitoids are described: Telenomus hybomitraesp. nov. and Telenomus utilissp. nov., both reared from eggs of Hybomitra nitidifrons nuda (McDunnough) and Hybomitra lasiophthalma Macquart, and Telenomus chrysopsissp. nov., reared from eggs of Chrysops aestuans Wulp, Chrysops excitans Walker, and Chrysops mitis Osten Sacken. Specimens of these species were compared with type specimens of known New World species of scelionid parasitoids attacking tabanid eggs. Diagnostic characters and identification key to the Nearctic species are provided.

The Impact

AbstractThe Nearctic species of the genus Duta are revised. Two new species are described: D. foveolata (Canada, USA) and D. policeps (Canada, USA). Duta virginiensis (Ashmead), new combination, is shown to be widely distributed in the Western Hemisphere, extending to the New World tropics. A diagnosis of Duta and a key to the Nearctic species are given. The impact of environmental degradation on the frequency of Duta species in North America is discussed.
