Trichogramma bertii Zucchi & Querino 2003

Description

Trichogramma bertii Zucchi & Querino, 2003

Diagnosis. Flagelliform setae short, with apex tapering abruptly; intervolsellar process distinctly pointed.

Comments. Trichogramma bertii has the flagelliform setae short, tapering abruptly apically, as in T. exiguum; but it is distinguished from T. exiguum by having the dorsal lamina with a shallow basal notch and the intervolsellar process at the same level as or slightly beyond the dorsal lamina. Trichogramma bertii is also similar to T. pretiosum but differs by the much shorter flagelliform setae and the intervolsellar process with its pointed apex reaching the same level as the apex of the dorsal lamina or extending slightly beyond it.

Type repository. ESALQ.

Type locality. Altinópolis, SP, Brazil.
