Biblio :
- Cameron 1899 : Hymenoptera Orientalia …Part. VIII … in “Memoirs and Proceedings of the Manchester Literary and Philosophical Society. 43 (3)- p.111“
- Schmiedeknecht 1908/1910 : in "Opuscula Entomologica" - Part 19/24 (on the Net, see with http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org )

I was not able to make more photos being given the mediocre quality of my equipment.

Determination of sub-Family :
* Characteristics of our capture :
[see viewtopic.php?f=104&t=53609&hilit=+Adaptation]
- Forewings with 1 Bulla
- Inner Eye margins convergent ventrad
then
[see viewtopic.php?f=104&t=53530&hilit=+Adaptation]
- Spiracle of Tergite 1 placed behind the midlength of the Tergite
- Abdomen compressed, its segments 3 & 4 deeper than wide
- The Areolet of the right Forewing is not open on the left
- The Propodeum is reticulated wrinkled
- The Discoidella is present
So the sub-Family is Anomaloninae
Determination of Genus :
* Characteristics of our capture :
[see viewtopic.php?f=104&t=57717&hilit=+anomaloninae]
- dg > gk
- Clypeus without median apical tooth
- Hind Tarsal Claws with a large lobe
So the Genus is Heteropelma
Determination of species :
The European species of Genus are 5 , szepligetii is endemic of Hungary (I was not able to find the description of this one, the website concerned seemed to be temporarily inaccessible).
The 4 others are species of Genera (sensu Schmiedeknecht) :
- Heteropelma whose Legs 3 have the length of Tarsomere 1 circa 4 times the length of Tarsomere 2.
or
- Schizoloma or Exochilum , whose Legs 3 have the length of Tarsomere 1 circa 2 times the length of Tarsomere 2.
So our capture is a Schizoloma or an Exochilum.
- S. signatum has the Flagella black.
- E. amictum has the Flagella red +/- yellow.
Of where the determination
---
amictum was captured in Italy
