Criomica Kozlov syn. n.

Comments.

The separation of Criomica from Platygaster was justified on the basis of the shape and proportions of the head. The eyes are somewhat triangular, but otherwise the cephalic shape of Criomica is unremarkable. The 3-merous clava in the female of this species is notable and may be a useful character for future species-group placement.
