Description
Pimpla genus-group
The genera of this group are characterized by the possession of a nearly straight mesopleural suture (Figs 9, 13, 33) and a reduction of the membranous vesicles on the tarsal claws (Gauld 1991: 477). Occurring in Mexico genera Apechthis, Itoplectis and Pimpla have fore wing with enclosed areolet (Fig. 46) and hind wing with nervellus (cu1&cu-a) intercepted far above middle (Fig. 36). The genera Apechthis and Itoplectis possess inner margin of the eye strongly concave opposite antennal insertion (Figs 2, 12) and tarsal claws of female with acute basal lobe, while the genus Pimpla has inner margin of the eye weakly concave (Fig. 26) and tarsal claws simple, without a basal lobe. Females of Apechthis have a remarkable strongly decurved apically ovipositor (Fig. 4).
