Abstract

Eastern Palaearctic Tetramopria are reviewed; the previously unknown female of T. turbinata is described; T. tortilis is newly recorded from Korea and T. turbinata is newly recorded from Japan; an updated key for all Palaearctic Tetramopria species is given. For both Eastern Palaearctic Tetramopria species we report observations of mating, and interactions between the wasps and their host ants.
