A new species of gall inquiline, , is described from Hubei Province, China. Morphological descriptions, photographs and biological information are provided. Mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase (COI) sequences of the new species were newly obtained and a molecular species delimitation analysis of 12 species of performed using the ASAP method recovered 16 molecular operational taxonomic units, providing support for recognition of the new species. The results also highlight a few conflicts between morphological and molecular species delimitations in .
中国湖北省发现一种新的虫瘿寄居蜂物种,并对其进行了描述。文中提供了形态学描述、照片及生物学信息。新物种的线粒体细胞色素氧化酶(COI)序列已重新获得,并使用ASAP方法对12种虫瘿寄居蜂进行了分子物种界定分析,得到了16个分子操作分类单元,为新物种的认定提供了支持。研究结果还凸显了虫瘿寄居蜂在形态学和分子物种界定方面存在的一些冲突。
