Zootaxa 5715 (1): 489-493, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5715.1.42, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5715.1.42
E20C87B5FFB1FFA4FF567D70D959F84B.taxon	discussion	Comments. Krasava is similar to the cosmopolitan genus Psilocera Walker, 1833 (Bouček, 1988; Bouček, Rasplus, 1991; Sureshan, Narendran, 2004; Xiau, Huang, 2019; UCD Community 2025) in several features including the large antennal clava with a wide micropilosity area (Fig. 5); broad head, in dorsal view (Fig. 4); head and mesosoma black (Figs 1, 7); notauli incomplete (Fig. 7); propodeum with spiracles positioned closer to metanotum (Fig. 6); petiole transverse (Figs 6, 7). However, Krasava gen. nov., can be distinguished by the clypeus with convex neighbouring lateral parts (Fig. 2) vs clypeus without convex neighbouring lateral parts; lower margin of clypeus weakly emarginate (Fig. 2) vs lower margin of clypeus with two teeth; antenna inserted below ocular line (Fig. 2) vs antenna inserted above ocular line; propodeum with concave median area and without subglobose nucha and costula (Fig. 6) vs propodeum without concave median area and with subglobose nucha and costula; fore wing narrow (Fig. 3) vs fore wing not narrow. Krasava also resembles the Palaearctic genera Monoksa Bouček, 1991 and Rohatina Boucek, 1954 in having a clypeus with convex neighbouring lateral parts (Fig. 2); notauli incomplete (Fig. 7); propodeum with spiracles positioned closer to metanotum (Fig. 6); petiole transverse (Figs 6, 7). However, the new genus clearly differs in the concave median area of propodeum (Fig. 6) vs propodeum without concave median area; clava with a large micropilosity area on C 1 – C 4 (Fig. 5) vs micropilosity area never present on C 1; antenna inserted below ocular line (Fig. 2) vs antenna inserted above ocular line; fore wing narrow and slightly infuscate (Fig. 3) vs fore wing not narrow and hyaline.	en	Tselikh, Ekaterina V., Rasplus, Jean-Yves, Lee, Jaehyeon, Ku, Deok-Seo (2025): Krasava, a new genus of Pteromalidae (Hymenoptera, Chalcidoidea) from the Palaearctic region.
