Introduction
Dinotrema Foerster, 1862 is one of the largest genera in the tribe Alysiini (Braconidae, Alysiinae).
Its species are parasitoids of the larvae of Diptera predominantly belonging to the family Phoridae
(van Achterberg 1988).
Van Achterberg (1988) provided the current definition of the genus Dinotrema with its species differing
from those of the related genus Aspilota Foerster, 1862 by the short size of the paraclypeal fovea far
separated from the inn er margin of the eye. Moreover, this genus can be differentiated from the genera
1
European Journal of Taxonomy 179 : 1-23 ( 2016 )
Synaldis Foerster, 1862 by the presence of the vein cuqul (2-SR) (Fischer 2003; Tobias 2003, 2004a,
2006) and Adelphenaldis Fischer, 2003 by the short size of the paraclypeal fovea and the presence of the
vein cuqul (2-SR) (Fischer 2003; Peris-Felipo et al. 2012, 2014a). Recently, Peris-Felipo et al. (2014b)
revised the genus Dinotrema of the Western Palaearctic and included its 174 known species in a modern
key.
Dinotrema comprises a large number of species described from Afrotropical, Australasian, Nearctic,
Oceanic, Oriental and Palaearctic (mainly from Western Europe) regions (Fischer 1972; van Achterberg
1988; Tobias 2003,2004a, 2004b, 2006; Yu etal. 2012; Peris-Felipo & Belokobylskij 2013; Peris-Felipo
etal. 2013a, 2013b, 2013c, 2013d, 2014b, 2014c). This genus, however, has not yet been reported from
the Neotropical region.
In this paper, the genus Dinotrema is recorded for the first time from the Neotropical region with the
description and illustration of four new species, D. multiareolatum Peris-Felipo sp. nov., D. plaumanni
Peris-Felipo sp. nov., D. subbidentatum Peris-Felipo sp. nov. and D. teutoniaense Peris-Felipo sp. nov.
Material and methods
For the terminology of the morphological features, sculpture and measurements, see Peris-Felipo
et al. (2014b); for wing venation nomenclature, see Peris-Felipo et al. (2014b) and in parenthesis
van Achterberg (1993). Also, the morphological groups based on the propodeum sculpture (Peris-Felipo
et al. 2014b) are used for the key of the Nearctic and Neotropical Dinotrema species. The material was
imaged using a Digital Keyence ® VHX-2000 and Adobe Photoshop® imaging system. The types of the
described species are deposited in the collection of the Natural History Museum (London, UK; BMNH)
and the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (St Petersburg, Russia; ZISP).
Taxonomic part
Four new Neotropical species of the genus Dinotrema are described and illustrated: D. multiareolatum
sp. nov., D. plaumanni sp. nov., D. subbidentatum sp. nov. and D. teutoniaense sp. nov. The type material
of the Nearctic species deposited in Naturhistorisches Museum Wien (Austria) was revised and the
following taxa are transferred to Dinotrema'. D. angusticorne (Fischer, 1969) comb, nov.; D. armillariae
(Fischer, 1969) comb, nov.; D. bucculatricis (Fischer, 1969) comb, nov.; D. caudatulum (Fischer,
1969) comb, nov.; D. clayensis (Fischer, 1969) comb, nov.; D. communis (Fischer, 1969) comb, nov.;
D. disstriae (Fischer, 1969) comb, nov.; D. pauperum (Fischer, 1969) comb, nov.; D. saileri (Fischer,
1969) comb, nov.; D. shannoni (Fischer, 1969) comb. nov. and D. sylvaticae (Fischer, 1969) comb. nov.

Comparative diagnosis
This new species is similar to Dinotrema caudatulum (Fischer, 1969), D. communis (Fischer, 1969) and

the mandible 1.7 times as long as its maximum width (1.0 times in D. caudatulum ), the first flagellar
segment 3.8 times as long as its maximum width (3.0 times in D. caudatulum), hind femur 4.4 times as
long as its maximum width (3.5 times in D. caudatulum), the first metasomal tergite 3.1 times as long as

D. communis in having the mandible 1.7 times as long as its maximum width (1.3 times in D. communis),
the first flagellar segment 3.8 times as long as its maximum width (3.0 times in D. communis), hind
femur 4.4 times as long as its maximum width (3.9 times in D. communis), and the first metasomal
tergite 3.1 times as long as its apical width (1.8 times in D. communis). Finally, D. multiareolatum
sp. nov. differs from D. sylvaticae in having the mandible 1.7 times as long as its maximum length (1.2
times in D. sylvaticae), posterior mesopleural furrow smooth (crenulate in D. sylvaticae), hind femur
4.4 times as long as its maximum width (3.6 times in D. sylvaticae), and the first metasomal tergite 3.1
times as long as its apical width (2.0 times in D. sylvaticae).
According to the key by Peris-Felipo et al. (2014b), this new species is similar to the Palaearctic
D. oleraceum (Tobias, 1962) and D. paludellae Munk & Peris-Felipo, 2013. Dinotrema multiareolatum

times in D. oleraceum), the first flagellar segment 3.8M.0 times as long as its maximum width (3.0
t im es in D. oleraceum), hind femur 4.4 times as long as its maximum width (4.0 times in D. oleraceum),

D. multiareolatum sp. nov. differs from D. paludellae in having the mandible 1.7 times as long as its
maximum width (1.85-1.90 times in D. paludellae), the first flagellar segment 3.8^4.0 times as long as
its maximum width (2.3-2.4 times in D. paludellae), hind femur 4.4 times as long as its maximum width
(3.6-3.7 times in D. paludellae), and the first metasomal tergite 3.1 times as long as its apical width
(2.2-2.3 times in D. paludellae).

Comparative diagnosis
This new species is similar to Dinotrema subbidentatum sp. nov. but differs from it in having a rather long
(visible in lateral view) upper tooth of mandible (very short and almost invisible in D. subbidentatum
sp. nov.), mandible 1.3 times as long as its maximum width (1.7 times in D. subbidentatum sp. nov.),
apical flagellar segments paler than middle segments (apical and middle segments similarly coloured in
D. subbidentatum sp. nov.), the first flagellar segment 3.5 times as long as its maximum width (2.5-3.0
times in D. subbidentatum sp. nov.), eye in lateral view 1.8 times as wide as temple medially (1.3 times
in D. subbidentatum sp. nov.), and the first metasomal tergite 3.0 times as long as its apical width (1.4
times in D. subbidentatum sp. nov.).
According to the key by Peris-Felipo et al. (2014b), this new species is similar to Dinotrema adventum
(Fischer, 1973) and D. macrocera (Thomson, 1895). Dinotrema plaumanni sp. nov. differs from these
species in having the first metasomal tergite 3.0 times as long as its apical width (2.0 times in D. adventum
and 2.2 times in D. macrocera ), face 1.7 times as wide as high (1.25 times in D. adventum and 1.5 times
in D. macrocera ), mesoscutal pit elongate (rounded in D. adventum and oval in D. macrocera ), and
prescutellar depression with lateral carinae (without lateral carinae in D. adventum and D. macrocera).

Discussion
Dinotrema is one of the largest genera within the subfamily Alysiinae with more than 330 species
described worldwide (Peris-Felipo et al. 2014b). Members of this genus were found in most
zoogeographical regions but thus far never in South America. This is thus the first record of the genus
Dinotrema in the Neotropical region.
The information published in this paper is valuable because of the role of the Aspilota genera group
(including Dinotrema) in the regulation of the natural populations of dipterans belonging to the families
Phoridae, Anthomyiidae and Platypezidae. In spite of the data presented here, additional studies on this
unique region of the Earth is required to increase our knowledge on the composition and diversity of the
Dinotrema of the world, as well as to provide the background for the use of these parasitoids in further
biological control programs.
