Trissolcus semistriatus (Nees von Esenbeck)

Identification.

Trissolcus semistriatus was identified using diagnostic characters presented in Tortorici et al. (2019): the absence of a hyperoccipital carina, metapleuron without setation, female antenna with five clavomeres, the presence of episternal foveae, a mesoscutal humeral sulcus that is a smooth furrow, and the absence of setae on the first laterotergite. The CO1 barcode sequence from an Iranian specimen (DPI_FSCA 00009834) was found to have the best match (99.53% sequence identity) to T. semistriatus from the Republic of Georgia when compared to other sequences in GenBank using BLAST.
