In fair condition. Girault in listing the types also mentions "eight females 



tag-mounted". I found six card point mounts of the eight mentioned 



in the original description, but unfortunately all the specimens of the 



adults originally so mounted were missing. Mounted in balsam on three 



slides; the lectotype being mounted on the same slide with three para- 



typic females. This species is now considered by Gahan (1924) as a 



synonym of Aphelinus mali Haldeman, the latter having priority.
