Pezilepsis Delucchi, 1955ft : J 53- Type-species : Isocyrtus dentifev Thomson, 1878, by original 



designation.

Pezilepsis dentifer (Thomson) Delucchi, 19556 : 154, o* ?• 



Type material [Isocyrtus dentifer (Th.)). Syntypes, 5 specimens in coll. Thomson 

 (Lund), 1 in coll. Moller (Goteborg). Thomson (1878 : 134) stated that the species 

 was taken in Skane, at Wallerup by Moller, and at Ringsjo by himself. A male 

 from Yddingen in Thomson's collection has been labelled " Type " by Delucchi ; 

 as this specimen does not appear to come from the right locality, I prefer not to 

 validate his selection at present. 



Sweden, Czechoslovakia. 



Biology. Unknown. In marshy places ; apparently rare.

Diglochis Forster was described without included species. Mayr (1904) included 

 Pteromalus complanatus Ratzeburg, which automatically became the type-species 

 of the genus. Thomson's (1878) interpretation of complanatus is provisionally 

 accepted here, following Mayr (1904), in spite of the fact that Kurdjumov (1913 : 16) 

 considered complanatus Ratzeburg to be different from that of Thomson. Actually 

 the question of the identity of complanatus is somewhat complicated. Probably 

 neither Thomson nor Mayr ever saw the types of complanatus although Kurdjumov 

 evidently did ; and they are presumed to have been destroyed in 1945. Ratzeburg 

 stated (1844a : 197) that his original material had come from two different sources : 

 " Vier $, welche ich besitze, stammen theils von Hrn. Nordlinger her, der sie aus 

 Fichtenzapfen erzog, theils von Hrn. Saxesen, der sie aus Bedeguars der Feldrosen 

 zu haben vermeint, doch aber seiner Sache nicht ganz gewiss ist ". It appears 

 very likely that the females from spruce-cones and from (?) bedeguar galls belonged
