Asaphesinae

Burks, Roger A. & Heraty, John M., 2020, First described fossil representatives of the parasitoid wasp taxa Asaphesinae n. n. and Eunotinae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea: Pteromalidae sensu lato) from Eocene Baltic amber, Journal of Natural History 54 (9), pp. 801-812 : 807

Asaphesinae: taxonomic changes

The type specimen of Desantisiana jujuyensis Neder de Román , described in Asaphinae ( Neder de Román 1999) , was examined and found to belong to Notoglyptus Masi , which is classified in the tribe Sphegigastrini of Pteromalidae sensu stricto. Because D. jujuyensis is the type and only species of Desantisiana n. syn., this name becomes a junior synonym of Notoglyptus . We suggest that comparison of Notoglyptus jujuyensis (Neder de Román) n. comb. with Neotropical species described by Heydon (1989) may result in synonymy of the species.
