Type species: Agathis rugifrons Smith, 1860 .

Distribution and Diversity: The genus is only represented in the literature by the type species from Sulawesi, though we have seen another specimen representing an undescribed species from Sulawesi. Due to its rarity and proximity to Th ailand it may occur there as well.

Taxonomy: See the Taxonomy section under Amputostypos .

Biology: Th e short ovipositor suggests that exposed hosts are attacked.

Phylogenetic Information. Member of the tribe Disophrini but exemplars have not been included in phylogenetic analyses.

Diagnosis: Tarsal claws bifid (Fig. 2a); ovipositor short, barely exerted ( Fig. 29a); antennal sockets surrounded on three sides by tubular shaped projection (Fig. 6aa); hind trochantellus with strong pair of carinae ventrally (Fig. 3a).
