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 monotypic tachinid genus Opsozelia Townsend, 1919 (Diptera: Tachinidae) is synonymized with ZeliaRobineau-Desvoidy 1830, syn. nov. The single species of Opsozelia, O. discalis Townsend, 1919, is redescribed as Zelia discalis, comb. nov., based on examination of the holotype from Guyana and additional material from Suriname, Brazil and Paraguay. Three new species of Zelia similar to Z. discalis are described from Brazil: Z. magnasp. nov., Z. guimaraesisp. nov. and Z. formosasp. nov. These four species are treated informally as the Zelia discalis species group. An identification key to the species of this species group is provided based on male specimens. Descriptions and illustrations are provided for the male terminalia of all species and for the female terminalia of one species, Z. guimaraesi.

The Agrilus cyanescens species-group of jewel beetles is defined to include seven species, three of which are newly described: A. dali Jendek sp. n. (China: Yunnan), A. zhongdian Jendek sp. n. (China: Yunnan) and A. arsenevi Jendek sp. n. (Russia: Primorsky Kray). Three new synonyms are proposed for A. cyanescens (Ratzeburg, 1837) (= italicus Obenberger, 1920 syn. n.; = cockerelli Fisher, 1925 syn. n.; = pooli Théry, 1936 syn. n.). Each member of the group is illustrated and an identification key to species, based on males, is provided.

AbstractLabena Cresson is a large Gondwanan genus best represented in the Neotropical area. We describe three new species in the Neotropical Labena striata species group: Labena gauldianasp. nov. from Costa Rica and Mexico, Labena yucatanicasp. nov. from Mexico, and Labena iquitosicasp. nov. from Peruvian Amazonia. These species are among the largest and most spectacular Neotropical Ichneumonidae ever collected. We also provide additional descriptive remarks regarding Labena striata Townes and Townes (including intraspecific variation) and an identification key to the six species of the striata group.

The gigas species group of the subgenus Canthidium (Neocanthidium) is defined and described. This species group is composed of three described species [C. gigas Balthasar, 1939, Brazilian Atlantic Forest, including intrusions into Cerrado, C. bokermanni (Martínez et al., 1964), Chaco and western Cerrado in Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, and Argentina, and C. kelleri (Martínez et al., 1964), Brazilian Cerrado and neighbouring open areas] and three new species: Canthidium stofeli sp. nov. from the western and southern regions of the Brazilian Amazon, Canthidium feeri sp. nov. from French Guiana, and Canthidium ayri sp. nov. from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. We present descriptions and redescriptions, illustrations, an identification key and comments on the distributions of the species of the gigas group.

The Tachytrechus alatus species group is revised. The species group is defined within the genus Tachytrechus on the basis of possession of a strong basiventral bristle on the fore femur and very reduced pulvilli on the midand hindlegs of both sexes. Males also possess a strongly reduced vertical bristle, and a cluster of 2–3 strong bristles on both the fore femur and mid coxa. The T. alatus species group is now known from southern Mexico, Central and South America and comprises eight Neotropical species including three new species: Tachytrechus alatus (Becker), Tachytrechus analis (Parent), Tachytrechus costaricensis Brooks sp. nov., Tachytrechus dios Brooks sp. nov., Tachytrechus giganteus (Brooks), Tachytrechus peruicus Yang & Zhang, Tachytrechus transversus (Van Duzee) and Tachytrechus zumbadoi Brooks sp. nov. A revised key to species is provided, as well as remarks on the phylogeny and zoogeography of the group.

A taxonomic revision of the Metallactus generosus species-group is given in the present study. The complex is made up of three Neotropical species, two redescribed here and one new: Metallactus generosus Suffrian, 1866, M. argentinensis Jacoby, 1907 and M. nigroplagiatus new species. Lectotypes are designated for M. generosus and M. argentinensis. An identification key for the species group is provided. The usefulness of endophallic sclerite morphology for taxonomic and diagnostic purposes within the genus Metallactus is briefly discussed. A lapsus calami is corrected, M. chamorroi Sassi, 2019 to M. chamorroae Sassi, 2019,
