Gonatocerus Nees ( = sulphuripes species group, of authors) (Figs 109–120) Gonatocerus Nees, 1834: 192; Bouček & Graham, 1972: 125 (validity of genus name and identity of the type-species); Triapitsyn et al ., 2010: 12 (subgenus under Gonatocerus , s . l .), 14 (key to Neotropical species); Triapitsyn, 2013 a: 8 (subgenus under Gonatocerus , s . l .), 9 (key to Palaearctic species). Type species . Gonatocerus longicornis Nees, by monotypy; recognized by Ashmead, 1904: 376 and most subsequent authors. Diagnosis . Within Gonatocerini, specimens of Gonatocerus are distinguished by the following combination of features: pronotum with lobes abutting medially; fore wing relatively narrow with microtrichia extending to base of venation and as dense behind as beyond venation; dorsellum rhomboidal; propodeum usually without carinae. Description . FEMALE . Occiput entire (Fig. 112). Vertex with 2 setae between lateral ocelli (Figs 110, 112). Malar sulcus distinct (Figs 109, 111, 113). Pronotum longitudinally divided, the lobes abutting medially except sometimes slightly separated posterodorsally (Fig. 116). Pronotal spiracle about same size pronotal spiracle (Fig. 116). Fore wing relatively narrow, with microtrichia usually as dense behind venation as beyond venation (Fig. 108 b) but sometimes sparse or absent behind parastigma, the cubital line of setae always present and complete to base of parastigma. Stigmal vein with apex oblique (Fig. 108 b). Dorsellum rhomboidal (Figs 6, 115). Propodeum with faint, converging sublateral carinae or carinae absent (Fig. 115). Ovipositor not produced anteriorly under mesosoma but sometimes exserted beyond gastral apex (Fig. 120). MALE . Radicle usually long (up to half length of scape), separated from scape by a line or sulcus. Scape several times as long as pedicel. Genitalia with aedeagal apodemes fused at junction with aedeagus and almost as long as apodeme of genital sternum. Discussion . Gonatocerus is not as easy to characterize as other genera. It is most easily confused with some Cosmocomoidea species. Additional features that may help distinguish Gonatocerus species are: fl 2 and fl 3 are often the longest funicle segments and the apex of fl 1 is often oblique. The dorsellum is often more distinctly triangular than in Cosmocomoidea and its margin may be lighter in colour than it is medially. Species such as G . stenopterus (Ogloblin) with a very large pronotal spiracle, but not as large as in some Gastrogonatocerus species, are placed in Gonatocerus based on the relatively narrow wings with fore wing microtrichia extending uniformly to the base of the venation. A fossil in Baltic amber is described below. The relatively narrow fore wing, venation length (as a proportion of the fore wing length) the same as in most extant Gonatocerus species, microtrichia extending proximally past the base of the parastigma, and lack of a hair line or fold extending posteroapically from the stigma indicated that the species is better placed in Gonatocerus than in Archigonatocerus . The species is described because it represents the second species of the genus to be found in amber (the first was G . henneberti Meunier) and the only one that can be described and illustrated in some detail. Distribution . The genus occurs worldwide. Hosts and habitat . Cicadellidae (Hemiptera). A few Gonatocerus species have reliably recorded hosts, e.g., Exitianus obscurinervis (Stål) and Spangbergiella vulnerata lacerdae Signoret for G . californicus Girault (Albarracin & Triapitsyn 2012), Nephotettix cincticeps Uhler for G . cincticipitis Sahad, and Cicadella viridis (L.) for G . cicadellae Nikol’skaya (Sahad & Hirashima 1984).
