Description

Glypta albicoxa Walker, 1874

(Figure 37)

Taxonomic history. Morley (1913b) synonymised this species with Clistopyga incitator (Fabricius, 1793), but Uchida (1940b) transferred it to Zatypota Förster, 1869 as a valid species.

Current taxonomy. Zatypota albicoxa (Walker, 1874) (Ichneumonidae: Pimplinae: Ephialtini).

Type number. Type 3b.850. Specimen # NHMUK010881027

Type status. Holotype.

Sex. Female.

Type locality. Japan.

Label data. First label, ‘Type’ (round label, with red margin; printed); second label, ‘B.M. TYPE /HYM./3.b.850’ (square label; first and second lines printed and third line handwriting); third label, ‘ Japan./Coll.F. Walker./ 1913–71.’ (square label; printed); fourth label, ‘ Glypta / albicoxa’ (square label; handwriting); fifth label, ‘ Clistopyga /incitator, fab. ♀ /Morley det. xii 1913 ’ (square label; ‘Morley det.’ printed and the remaining characters handwriting).
