Diagnosis

Phaenoglyphis abbreviata is mainly characterized by a closed radial cell that is 2.5 times as long as wide; the presence of pronotal and propodeal carinae; the presence of notauli; rounded scutellar foveae separated by a small and well-defined carina (Fig. 7.1); and female antenna with rhinaria beginning on F3, F1 subequal to pedicel, F1 longer than F2, F2 shorter than F3, and F3 subequal to F4 (Fig. 6.7). It is similar to P. moldavica , but can be differentiated by the proportions of the flagellomere (F1 is longer than F2 and F2 is shorter than F 3 in P. abbreviata (Fig. 6.7), while F1–F3 are subequal in length in P. moldavica (Fig. 6.14)), and the shape of the scutellar foveae (small, rounded, and separated by a wide carina in P. abbreviata (Fig. 7.1) but big and separated by a fine carina in P. moldavica (Fig. 7.8)).
