Genus NEOPACHYGASTER Austen View in CoL View at ENA

Neopachygaster Austen, 1901: 245 View in CoL . Type species, Pachygaster meromelaena Dufour, 1841 , by original designation.

Neopachygaster stigma Lindner. View in CoL

Neopachygaster stigma Lindner, 1938: 30 View in CoL . ST 2 ♂, 1 ♀ [ IRSNB], 1 ♂ [ SMNS]: Zaire: Rutshuru; ST 1 ♀ [ MRAC]: Zaire: Flandria .

Neopachygaster umbrifera Lindner, 1966a: 360 View in CoL . ST 4 ♂ ♀ [MRAC], 1 ♂ ♀ [SMNS]: Zaire: Yangambi. Syn. nov.

We examined a female syntype [ IRSNB] of Neopachygaster stigma ( Fig. 7 View FIGURES 7 – 12 ), the syntype series of N. umbrifera and additional material with an apical wing spot, and we could not find any differences among the specimens, so we therefore consider the two taxa as conspecific.
