Summary: | 20. Genus Ponomarenkoa Olmi, 2010 Laberites Ponomarenko 1988a: 107 (type species not designated, unvalid according to article 13.3 of ICZN, 1999); Olmi 1991: 393: Olmi & Bechly 2001: 57. Ponomarenkoa Olmi 2010: 31 (new name for Laberites Ponomarenko, 1988). Type species. Ponomarenkoa polonica (Ponomarenko, 1988) (= Laberites polonicus Ponomarenko, 1988), by original designation. Diagnosis. Male (Plate 137A–C): fully winged; occipital carina complete; antennae 10-segmented; fore wing with three cells enclosed by pigmented veins (costal, median and submedian), with metacarpus shorter than pterostigma;; tibial spurs 1/2/2. Female: unknown. Distribution. Only known from Baltic and Burmese amber. Hosts. Unknown. World species. Two species are known, one in the Oriental region. Remarks. Olmi (1991) described the new subfamily Laberitinae, based on Laberites Ponomarenko, 1988. At description time, this genus included two species, polonicus Ponomarenko, 1988,(from Baltic amber) and antiquus (Ponomarenko, 1981) (from Taimyr amber). Ponomarenko however did not want to describe really a new genus; for this reason, she did not designate a Type species. Ponomarenko in fact simply used a collective name to include the two above species considered of uncertain generic position. Olmi (1991) did not understand that Laberites was a collective name and not a true genus, so that, after separation of antiquus, considered belonging to Dryinus, designated polonicus as type species and described a new subfamily (Laberitinae) based on Laberites. Afterwards, however, Olmi & Bechly (2001) considered unvalid Laberites because Ponomarenko did not designate a type species (Art. 13.3 of ICZN 1999). In addition, Laberites is unvalid, because it is only a collective name including fossils (Art. 20 of ICZN 1999). Because of the unavailability of Laberites, a new name, Ponomarenkoa, was proposed (Olmi, 2010). Of course, the subfamily based on Ponomarenkoa had to be named Ponomarenkoinae.
