Meteorus consimilis (Nees von Esenbeck) Fig. 61, 62, 93 Perilitus consimilis Nees von Esenbeck, 1834:42. Syntypes ♂, Germany (destroyed). Perilitus brevipes Wesmael, 1835: 33 Lectotype ♂, Belgium: Brussels, coll. Wesmael (IRSNB, Brussels), Synonymized with albicornis Ruthe by Marshall, 1887:110. Meteorus albicornis Ruthe, 1862:34. lectotype ♀, Germany: Ruthe coll. (BMNH, London). Synonymized with consimilis by Thomson, 1895:2160 —examined Diagnosis : The only species that could be confused with this species is M. abdominator. A good separating character is the length of the malar space (almost two times basal breadth of mandible in M. consimilis , at most as long as basal breadth of mandible in M. abdominator . The length and shape of the ovipositor also differ between these species. The ovipositor of M. consimilis is thick, distinctly down-curved and short (equal in length to petiolar tergum), while M. abdominator has a thin and long (2.0–2.5 times length of petiolar tergum), and only slightly down-curved ovipositor. Studied material : ~ 60 specimens. Description : Size about 3–4mm. Antennae 32–33 articles; basally whitish. Head strongly contracted behind eyes. Ocelli large, OOL=1.5. Eyes small, not convergent. Malar space long, almost twice basal breadth of mandible. Clypeus strongly protuberant. Tentorial pits deep. Mandibles slender; strongly twisted. Precoxal sulcus deep, broad, reticulate-rugose. Propodeum strongly reticulate-rugose. Petiolar tergum short, wide, with distinct dorsal pits. Ovipositor short, at most equal in length to petiolar tergum; thick down-curved. Wings infumate and short. Colour dark. ♂ antennae 32–36 articles with no pale band. Distribution : Western Palearctic. Country records: Belgium; Croatia; Denmark; Finland; France; Germany; Hungary; Ireland; Latvia; Netherlands; Poland; Romania; Slovenia; Sweden; Switzerland; Turkey; Turkmenistan; Ukraine; United Kingdom; Yugoslavia. Biology : Meteorus consimilis is recorded as a parasitoid of Scolytus multistriatus (Yu et al. 2005). We found 58 specimens within the SMTP; they were caught in both deciduous and coniferous forests. Flying time is from middle of July to end of October. : Published as part of Stigenberg, Julia & Ronquist, Fredrik, 2011, Revision of the Western Palearctic Meteorini (Hymenoptera, Braconidae), with a molecular characterization of hidden Fennoscandian species diversity 3084, pp. 1-95 in Zootaxa 3084 (1) on page 51, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3084.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5244448 : {"references": ["Nees von Esenbeck, (1834) Hymenopterorum Ichneumonibus affinium monographiae, genera Europaea et species illustrantes, 1, 320 pp Stuttgart, Tubingen, Cotta.", "Wesmael, C.
