Reikosiella (Hirticauda) tricolor (Girault) n. comb.

Anastatus tricolor Girault, 1915: 22 –23. Type data: Australia: Queensland, Gordonvale (Cairns). Holotype female (QMBA). Described: female.

Eupelmus tricolor; Girault, 1924: 1. Combination by inference through listing of specific epithet under Eupelmus atriflagellum Girault.

Remarks. Only parts of the ovipositor and of a leg of the holotype remain (Dahms 1986). The parts are insufficient to establish correct generic classification, but Girault's description is sufficient to place this species as a member of R. ( Hirticauda). The antenna was described as having the apex of the scape, pedicel and fl1 reddish yellow, and fl2–fl5 silvery white. A flagellum with some white segments is characteristic of species of R. ( Hirticauda). Girault also described the scape as “swollen at base”, and the “marginal vein much longer than the submarginal”, which are also characteristic of females of many Reikosiella species. The description is sufficiently detailed that the species should be readily recognizable within the Australian fauna.
