| Abstract | Abstract Following a sampling of the hymenopteran parasitoid fauna in Corsica and identification of the collected specimens, the taxonomical aspects of the genus Leiophron Nees (Hymenopteran, Braconidae: Euphorinae) have been studied. Partial improving of the only existing key (Loan, 1974) to the European species of the genus is proposed based on insular collected new series, type-material specimens and evidence that the species Leiophron reclinator (Ruthe) belongs to the recently new designed Euphorinae genus Mama Belokobylskij (2000). A short re-description of Leiophron fulvipes Curtis is given, taking into account the variability observed in Corsican specimens. The diagnosis characters of the two closely related genera Leiophron and Peristenus, pointed out in the most recent taxonomical studies are discussed taking into account the above-mentioned material. |
