Lissonota semistriata Walker, 1874

(Figure 43)

Taxonomic history. Morley (1913b) suggested that L. semistriata is related to or a synonym of Earinus gloriatorius (Panzer, 1809) . Townes (1961) transferred this species to Agathis, and Sharkey (1996) then to Bassus Fabricius, 1804 .

Taxonomy. We propose a new combination, Therophilus semistriatus (Walker, 1874) comb. nov., based on recent work splitting the old concept of Bassus (which is now restricted to a few species; e.g. Sharkey and Chapman (2015)).

Current taxonomy. Therophilus semistriatus (Walker, 1874) comb. nov. ( Braconidae: Agathidinae).
