Genus Eustochomorpha Girault View in CoL ( Figs. 129–134)
Eustochomorpha Girault, 1915 [228]: 156. Type species: Eustochomorpha haeckeli Girault , by monotypy.
Diagnosis. Eustochomorpha belongs to the Eustochomorpha group of genera. It is distinguished as follows: funicle 8-segmented, clava 2- or 3-segmented ( Figs. 129, 133); fore wing with marginal vein extending more than halfway towards wing apex and stigmal vein well developed, as thick as marginal vein and extending almost to wing apex ( Fig. 131); hypochaeta extremely small or sometimes absent; ovipositor exserted well beyond apex of gaster ( Fig. 130) or, in undescribed species, forward under mesosoma ( Fig. 132) to level of head or beyond. Fore leg as in Fig. 134.
Females of the undescribed species have a 3-segmented clava and may represent at least a different subgenus ( Huber 2002), one of whose species is the largest mymarid known.
Body length. 1280–5500 µm.
Distribution. Australia.
Hosts. Unknown.
