F1238A650C5C2462FF06A1DC8EDE7633.taxon	discussion	Comments. The genus Epoligosita Girault is very close to Oligosita Haliday, but differs by having forewings apically narrow, with disc bare; club 1 – 3 (C 1 – C 3) segmented and funicle segment either present or absent, if present, single segmented. In Oligosita, forewings apically rounded, but disc at least with few setae; club 3 - segmented and a single funicle present.	en	Ikram, Mohsin, Yousuf, Mohammad, Khan, Salman (2025): Two new species of Epoligosita Girault (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) with a key to Indian species.
