961F3A66FF89FF8539A6FECE436FC376.taxon	etymology	Etymology The species is named ‛ incognitus ’ (Latin adjective meaning ‛ unknown’) because it was first recognized as a new species by COI sequences. Otherwise it would remain unnoticed, because morphologically it is extremely similar to closely related species such as A. maculiclypeus Xu, He & Olmi, 1999 and A. spadiceus Xu & He, 1997.	en	Olmi, Massimo, Chen, Hua-Yan, Guglielmino, Adalgisa, Ødegaard, Frode, Vollaro, Massimo, Capradossi, Leonardo, Liu, Jing-Xian (2022): DNA barcoding of Aphelopus Dalman (Hymenoptera, Dryinidae) from China, with descriptions of four new species.

961F3A66FF89FF8539A6FECE436FC376.taxon	discussion	Remarks The female and male association of the new species is supported by the COI sequences, which are 99.2 % identical between both sexes. This new species has been collected both in the Oriental (Yunnan) and Eastern Palaearctic (Beijing) region. In the Oriental region, following the above diagnosis, the female of A. incognitus Chen, Olmi & Guglielmino sp. nov. is close to that of A. ochreus Olmi, 1984. However, in the new species, the notauli reach about 0.6 × length of mesoscutum (Fig. 4 D); OPL is longer than OOL (Fig. 4 C); the frontal line is incomplete, absent in front of the anterior ocellus (in A. ochreus, the notauli are complete or reaching about 0.75 – 0.80 × length of mesoscutum; OPL is shorter than OOL; the frontal line is complete). Following the description of A. incognitus Chen, Olmi & Guglielmino sp. nov., the key to females of Oriental Aphelopus published by Xu et al. (2013) should be modified by replacing couplet 4 as follows.	en	Olmi, Massimo, Chen, Hua-Yan, Guglielmino, Adalgisa, Ødegaard, Frode, Vollaro, Massimo, Capradossi, Leonardo, Liu, Jing-Xian (2022): DNA barcoding of Aphelopus Dalman (Hymenoptera, Dryinidae) from China, with descriptions of four new species.

961F3A66FF86FF8739B3FAE8436FC02E.taxon	discussion	Remarks According to Xu et al. (2013), the male of Aphelopus spadiceus usually has a hyaline fore wing, except a specimen from China (Yunnan, Tengchong, Jietou, 12. v. 2009, Jie Zeng leg., 1 ♂, SCAU) showing a small infuscate patch beneath the pterostigma. The above specimen has been considered only a variety of A. spadiceus by Xu et al. (2013). However, a comparison between COI sequences of two males of A. spadiceus from China, 26.324161 ° N, 99.256617 ° E, one with a hyaline fore wing and the other with an infuscate patch (Fig. 5 F), showed that the two specimens belong to two separate species. This result persuaded us to describe the specimen with an infuscate patch on the fore wing as a new species named A. maculiala Olmi, Chen & Ødegaard sp. nov. (although the genitalia of the new species is similar to that of A. spadiceus). The fore wing of the new species shows a small infuscate patch, so that it is more similar to A. xanthopus Xu, He & Olmi, 1999, than to A. spadiceus. However, in A. maculiala Olmi, Chen & Ødegaard sp. nov. the face is completely black (Fig. 5 D), whereas in A. xanthopus it is whitish between the antennal toruli. Following the description of A. maculiala Olmi, Chen & Ødegaard sp. nov., the key to males of the Oriental Aphelopus published by Xu et al. (2013) should be modified by replacing couplet 21 as follows:	en	Olmi, Massimo, Chen, Hua-Yan, Guglielmino, Adalgisa, Ødegaard, Frode, Vollaro, Massimo, Capradossi, Leonardo, Liu, Jing-Xian (2022): DNA barcoding of Aphelopus Dalman (Hymenoptera, Dryinidae) from China, with descriptions of four new species.

961F3A66FF9AFF993A54FD354261C015.taxon	discussion	Remarks Aphelopus nivealis Mita & Olmi, 2014 was originally described from the Eastern Palaearctic region (Honshu, Japan) (see Olmi & Xu 2015). In this species there are no notauli. One of the two specimens above (from Guangdong, 22.570411639 ° N, 113.99317344 ° E) matches completely with the description of A. nivealis, including the body colour and the absence of notauli (Fig. 15 A – B). On the contrary, the other specimen (from Guangdong, 23 ° 3 ′ 9 ″ N, 113 ° 23 ′ 23 ″ E) is whiter and seems to have shallow traces of notauli reaching about 0.5 × length of mesoscutum (Fig. 15 C – D). The genetic distance between the two specimens is only 0.6 %, suggesting that the variations are just intraspecific. These records indicate that A. nivealis is present both in the Eastern Palaearctic and the Oriental regions.	en	Olmi, Massimo, Chen, Hua-Yan, Guglielmino, Adalgisa, Ødegaard, Frode, Vollaro, Massimo, Capradossi, Leonardo, Liu, Jing-Xian (2022): DNA barcoding of Aphelopus Dalman (Hymenoptera, Dryinidae) from China, with descriptions of four new species.
