Type material. Lectotype $ designated by Graham (1957^ : 233). 



Norway, Sweden, Germany, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Rumania, 

 U.S.S.R. 



Biology. Develops in spruce-cones as a parasite of Kaltenbachiola sty obi (Winn.) 

 in Norway, according to Bakke (1955 : 180, although other hosts have been 

 recorded (see Boucek, 1966a : 54).

Anogmus vala (Walker) ; Boucek, 1966a : 53-54, 6* ?• 



Type material. Lectotypes of Pteromalus vala Walker, Eutelus specularis 

 Thomson and Eutelus strobicola Ruschka, designated by Graham (1957^ : 233), 

 who established the above synonymy. 



Pteromalus complanatus Ratzeburg. Types presumed lost. Placed as a doubtful 

 synonym of vala (Walker) by Boucek (1966a : 53). Part of Ratzeburg's original 

 material was obtained from spruce-cones, so that the synonymy seems possible ; 

 see discussion p. 782, under the genus Diglochis. 



Britain, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Germany, Austria, Czechoslovakia. 



Biology. Develops in spruce-cones ; Bakke (1963) considered after careful 

 investigation that Kaltenbachiola strobi (Winn.) was the true host of vala ; other 

 hosts have been recorded but are somewhat doubtful (see Boucek, 1966a : 53-54).
