Description

Phorytocarpais hyalinus (Willmann)

Eugamasus hyalinus Willmann, 1949: 110.

Parasitus hyalinus: Micherdzinski, 1969: 529; Hyatt, 1980: 277; Karg, 1993a: 469. Phorytocarpais hyalinus: Athias­Henriot, 1980: 24.

Specimens examined: Site 94­32, 10 females, 5DN.

Phorytocarpais hyalinus is widespread in Europe, where it occurs in compost, agricultural soils, pasture, dung, and leaf litter (Karg, 1993a). It has also been reported from North and South America, South Africa, Algeria, Morocco, and Mongolia, in a wide variety of habitats (Athias­Henriot, 1980). It has not been reported from Australia (Halliday, 1998, 2001b). It is presumed to be a non­specific predator on the basis of analogy with other species of Parasitus, such as P. coleoptratorum (L.) (Rapp, 1959).
