Trichogramma lasallei Pinto, 1999 View in CoL
Diagnosis. Flagelliform setae long with apex uniformly pointed; scutellum with distinct, dark anterior setae; ventral ridge short, with anterior limit indistinct; ventral processes far from the base of intervolsellar process, which is short.
Comments. This species resembles T. bruni and T. rojasi ; however, it differs from both in having the ventral processes far from the base of the intervolsellar process and a short ventral ridge. Trichogramma lasallei and T. rojasi were also characterized by molecular techniques (GenBank ID AF282237.1 and GenBank ID AF282239.1, respectively) ( Ciociola et al. 2001). Trichogramma bellaunionense is similar to T. lasallei morphologically (see Comments on T. bellaunionense ).
