A complete revision of the genus Synergus Hartig (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae: Synergini) in the New World (Nearctic and Neotropical regions) is conducted for the first time in order to stabilize its taxonomy. A total of 11 new species are described from Mexico: S. ashmeadi Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar, sp. nov.; S. beutenmulleri Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar, sp. nov.; S. compressus Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar, sp. nov.; S. diversicolor Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar, sp. nov.; S. ebenus Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar, sp. nov.; S. linnei Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar, sp. nov.; S. macrackenae Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar, sp. nov.; S. oaxaquensis Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar, sp. nov.; S. personatus Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar, sp. nov.; S. ruficephalus Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar, sp. nov.; and S. weldi Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar, sp. nov. Synergus splendidus Fullaway, 1911 is proposed as a syn. nov. of S. dorsalis (Provacher, 1889); S. garryana Gillette, 1893 and S. oneratus coloradensis Gillette, 1896 as syn. nov. of S. oneratus (Harris, 1841); and S. magnificus Weld, 1957 as a syn. nov. of S. reniformis McCracken Egbert, 1922. Redescriptions and illustrations are provided for poorly characterized species. A key to species and a summary table including all valid Synergus from the New World, their biology and distribution, are given. Distribution, morphology, and trophic associations are discussed and compared between New World and Palaearctic species.
首次对新大陆(北美和新热带地区)的协同属 Synergus Hartig(膜翅目:长尾小蜂科:协同小蜂族)进行全面修订,以稳定其分类学。从墨西哥共描述了 11 个新种:S. ashmeadi Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar,新种;S. beutenmulleri Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar,新种;S. compressus Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar,新种;S. diversicolor Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar,新种;S. ebenus Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar,新种;S. linnei Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar,新种;S. macrackenae Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar,新种;S. oaxaquensis Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar,新种;S. personatus Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar,新种;S. ruficephalus Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar,新种;S. weldi Lobato-Vila Pujade-Villar,新种。Synergus splendidus Fullaway, 1911 被提议为 S. dorsalis (Provacher, 1889) 的同义名;S. garryana Gillette, 1893 和 S. oneratus coloradensis Gillette, 1896 被提议为 S. oneratus (Harris, 1841) 的同义名;S. magnificus Weld, 1957 被提议为 S. reniformis McCracken Egbert, 1922 的同义名。对特征描述较差的物种进行了重述和说明。提供了一个新种的关键以及一个包括新大陆所有有效协同物种及其生物学和分布的摘要表。讨论了分布、形态和营养联系,并将新大陆和古北界的物种进行了比较。
