892FF605FFDCE1092188E916FD7667A9.taxon	discussion	REMARKS The first coverslip covers three ♀ and one ♂. One female has the head still attached, with only one antenna lost, and could be selected as lectotype after remounting if necessary. The other two females are crushed, with the heads broken off, but are conspecific with the first female. The male is very damaged. The second coverslip covers one ♂, completely crushed under it. This is a species from the Eupelmus australiensis speciesgroup, with a long and uniformly dark ovipositor.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFDCE10F206EEC34FEB16788.taxon	description	OTHER MATERIAL. — MNHN, ex. coll. ORSTOM. 2.2. Slide labeled in Risbec’s handwriting: “ Anastatus / Aliberti. Risbec / ex ω Homoeocerus / s- cacaoyer. / Abengourou / H. Alibert ” [see under Paravignalia hemipterae]. MNHN, ex. coll. ORSTOM. 2.3. Slide labeled in Risbec’s handwriting: “ Anastatus / (Paravignalia) / hemipterae [overwritten in a different ink by:] Aliberti Risbec / ex ω. Reduvidae [sic] / Bambey / Risbec ” [see under Paravignalia hemipterae]. MNHN, ex. coll. ORSTOM. 2.4. Slide labeled in Risbec’s handwriting: “ Anastatus Aliberti Risbec / ♂. / ex ω Hotea / subfasciata. / Garoua I. 55 / Descamps. 223 ” [see under Paravignalia hemipterae]. REMARKS The lectotype was selected by Bouček (1976 b) from one of the two specimen on slide MNHN. 14.22. Unfortunately Bouček (1976 b) didn’t provide any character by which the female he selected as lectotype could be distinguished from the second one, so it was not unambiguously selected. Therefore, his designation is not valid according to ICZN Art. 74.5, and the female in the middle of slide MNHN. 14.22 is here designated as lectotype of Anastatus aliberti. The lectotype female is not contorted, is entire except for missing fl 8 and the clava of the left antenna, has the wings folded on the dorsum, and both eyes are collapsed. The paralectotype female has the right antenna broken off beyond fl 1, both fore wings are in an upward position and with the apices folded, and only the left eye is collapsed. Besides the two females, slide MNHN. 14.22 contains one male mentioned also by Risbec (1955). The male has the antenna with a very long clava and short, transverse flagellomeres (second type of antennal structure described by Gibson [1995]). One antenna is broken off but there is a clava glued with Canada balsam next to the coverslip. The head and mesosoma are mostly dark green, with intense blue and purple luster on the mesopleura and hind coxa. The fore femur is darkened with metallic luster on the outer surface and the fore tibia is yellow, the mid femur is dark and the mid tibia slightly darkened distally, and the hind femur and tibia are entirely darkened; all tarsi have yellowish basal segments, progressively darkened toward the last tarsomere. This short description is provided because this male could be the other sex of A. aliberti, described from females, and because Paravignalia hemipterae Risbec, 1951, described from males, was placed in synonymy with A. aliberti by Risbec (1955) and this was followed by Hedqvist (1970). Specimens on slides ORSTOM. 2.2 to 2.4, although labeled as Anastatus aliberti, contain type material belonging to Paravignalia hemipterae Risbec, 1951 and are treated below under this name. Slide ORSTOM. 2.5 contains two Anastatus female specimens similar with those on slide MNHN. 14.22. Although labeled as aliberti v. bruniptera, this seems to be a later addition to the label, so they actually are the last two syntypes mentioned in the original description of A. aliberti (reared from eggs on cacao tree).

892FF605FFDCE10F206EEC34FEB16788.taxon	discussion	REMARKS This taxon was described as a variety (“ variété ” and “ n. v. ”) of Anastatus aliberti (Risbec 1951 a) and on subsequent pages listed in an index as “ Anastatus bruniptera n. sp., n. var. ” (p. 251) or simply as Anastatus bruniptera (p. 252) (see Remarks under Neanastatus tenuis var. bicolor). Risbec (1951 b) published again “ Anastatus aliberti bruniptera n. v. ” but without description. Slide MNHN. 14.23 contains five female syntypes. The five females are clearly conspecific, so at the moment there is no need for a lectotype designation; they are conspecific with the lectotype of A. aliberti. The specimens on slide MNHN. 14.24 are most likely the eight specimens mentioned by Risbec (1951 b) later, in the first addition to his 1951 monograph and if so, they are not part of the original type series.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFDAE10F207CEC14FB5C6636.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Risbec described this species based on three females: one reared from an Apanteles Förster, 1862 cocoon (Hymenoptera, Braconidae), one collected from salad leafs, and one he obtained from eggs of Charaxes epijasius Reiche, 1850 (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae). The specimen on slide MNHN. 14.18, collected on salad, was remounted and labeled by LF, and is here designated as lectotype. It is uncontorted, with the right fore leg missing and the left eye collapsed. Labels on slides ORSTOM. 2.7 and MNHN. 4.60 differ from those given in the original description and thus specimens on these slides are not designated as paralectotypes.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFDAE10F2203EAB6FABA634A.taxon	discussion	REMARKS The two female syntypes are not in good condition, as also noted by Risbec (“ en mauvais état ”) (Risbec 1951 a). The specimens on slide ORSTOM. 2.15 are not syntypes as only the two females on slide MNHN. 14.28 were mentioned in the original description. Risbec (1951 a) introduced the name as a variety of A. apantelesi (but spelled “ Variété A. nezarae, n. var. ”), and in the following pages (251 - 252) he listed Anastatus nezarae as a species, but accompanied sometimes by “ n. sp., n. var. ” (see Remarks under Neanastatus tenuis var. bicolor). In a later publication he used again Anastatus nezarae as a species name (Risbec 1955). After examining the two fragmentary syntypes of Anastatus nezarae, it appears that the name is synonym of A. apantelesi Risbec.

892FF605FFD8E10D206CEF12FAF06008.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Risbec (1956 a) made the name Brasema alasorae available by including the female in a key, but he didn’t specify the number of specimens or exact locality data, except that the species was from Madagascar and that it was reared from galls on the stalk of Helichrysum bojerianum DC. He also stated that “ La clé d’identification tient compte également de trois espèces malgaches dont les descriptions ne pourront être publiées très prochainement et dont les diagnoses provisoires seront ainsi publiées ”. Consequently, Risbec described Brasema alasorae as a new species again in 1958 and the description was based on a male and a female from slide N ° G. 122 [MNHN. 4.55]. For Brasema alasorae as well as for B. andropogonae Risbec, 1956 and B. fantsiliae Risbec, 1956, we consider the 1958 publication as a subsequent description and not as a description of a new species, because of Risbec’s 1956 statement reproduced above. The male of B. alasorae mentioned in 1958 is probably lost (see above under type material), and the sole present female on slide MNHN. 4.55 is here designated as lectotype.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFD6E1032066E8F8FE1D6069.taxon	discussion	REMARKS According to Bouček (1976 b), this species belongs to the urozonus species - group of Eupelmus. It is similar to E. martellii Masi, 1941, described from N. Africa, in having the ovipositor about 0.8 times the hind tibia length, a reticulate scrobal depression with smooth scrobes, faintly reticulate frons, mostly bluish-green body with bronze and copper reflections without purple on the pronotal collar, a dark violet scrobal depression, and almost entirely yellowish middle legs, but it differs in having dark admarginal pronotal setae (however this is difficult to confidently appreciate accurately because of the condition of the specimen).	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFD5E100207EE8F8FD64638D.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Bouček (1976 b) transferred this species to Eupelmus and he also established the synonymy with Holceupelmus bifasciatus Cameron, 1905. Specimens on slide MNHN. 14.49 are probably the two females without host data mentioned in the original description and are clearly different from the lectotype and from paralectotypes on slides MNHN. 14.47 and MNHN. 14.48. Slide ORSTOM. 2.22 contains two ♀ and one ♂, of which one ♀ and one ♂ under the first coverslip are conspecific with the lectotype, while the female under the second coverslip belongs to another Eupelmus species, different from that on slide MNHN 14.49. Because the type series of B. orthopterae involves three species (only one fitting the original description and Risbec’s fig. 127) a female on slide MNHN. 14.48 is here designated as lectotype. It is entire, with all relevant characters visible, but the head is slightly detached and the tip of one wing and ovipositor apex are trapped in Canada balsam. Because of the fragility of the specimens it was decided not to remount them.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFD4E1012061ED33FBD862EA.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Both specimens from slide MNHN. 1.75 were remounted by G. Gibson, labeled accordingly and are in the general collection. The female bears a red label “ Lectotype (Gibson, 1991) ”; this previously unpublished lectotype designation is here validated. The male from the same slide and the female on slide MNHN. 1.49 are paralectotypes. The lectotype and the male paralectotype belong to Tineobius Ashmead, 1896, subgenus Progenitobius Gibson, 1995. Both specimens have a very long maxillary palpus with elongated last segment (Fig. 3 A, C). The female has the hind tibia slightly compressed with a whitish dorsal margin in the basal quarter and structures of the propodeum, Mt 7, and syntergum are very similar to that of the type species of the subgenus [Tineobius (Progenitobius) elongatus (Risbec, 1952)]. The female on slide MNHN. 1.49 belongs to a species of Eupelmus (Episolindelia) with a foliaceous scape, filamentous dark ovipositor, and fore wing with a median longitudinal infuscation. Although the specimen is mentioned by Risbec (1952), all these characters do not fit the original description.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

Risbec treated it in Eupelmidae but Charitopus is a valid generic name in Encyrtidae. The species actually belongs to Heydenia Förster, 1856 (Pteromalidae), the same opinion being expressed by Noyes & Prinsloo (1998) and G.

892FF605FFD2E10422D9E8F7FE1560E9.taxon	discussion	REMARKS This species was described from seven females: three collected from the head of millet, one reared from unidentified Psychidae on soya, one without host data and two reared from Piezotrachelus varius. One of the three females from slide MNHN. 14.31 was remounted by LF and is here designated as lectotype. There is one female in the general collection mounted on a card point and with a red type label, but it is from Madagascar and cannot be from the type series. The sole existing paralectotype female from slide ORSTOM. 2.38 is not conspecific with the lectotype because of the presence of several small black pegs on the basitarsus. Risbec (1951 a) was not consistent in using the name psychephaga. Eupelmella pedatoria var. psychephaga was used in the heading of the original description (p. 206), Eupelmus psychephaga on page 207 (for fig. 124) and in the index on page 251, and Eupelmella psychephaga in the index on page 252. We do not consider this citation in the index or under a figure as an intended new status. Risbec never listed the full species plus variety name in the index for any variety described in this paper, but simply the variety name under the genus. Similar to Eupelmus elongatus, the confusion on the generic placement was most likely generated by the earlier inclusion of this species in Eupelmus under the name Eupelmus apionidis Risbec (nomen nudum) (Risbec 1950 a). This name was connected with E. psychephagus, although Risbec himself (Risbec 1951 a) stated that it was a misidentification of Eupelmus pedatorius. Risbec (1951 a, b) specified that he had sent out all his specimens of E. apionidis for identification. In the BMNH there is a specimen of Eupelmus psychephagus with a label in Risbec’s handwriting (Fig. 1 F) that is part of this material. The specimen label gives the host as Piezotrachelus illex Faust, 1899, but according to Risbec (1950 a: 165) this was a misidentification of P. varius.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFD1E10522C8E8F7FE08638A.taxon	discussion	REMARKS This species was described from an unstated number of females and males reared from larvae of Piezotrachelus varius in pods of black-eyed pea (niébé) and one female collected from the head of millet. Specimens on slides ORSTOM. 2.32 and ORSTOM. 2.34 are not from the type series as there is no host data on the labels and the slides are labeled distinctly from the others, in black ink directly on glass. The general collection contains five card mounted specimens that must have originated from slides MNHN. 14.43 and MNHN. 14.44 that are currently missing. Although the remounting is not mentioned on the labels, they are similar in content to the labels on the remaining slides. The type material is extremely heterogeneous, containing at least two species of Eupelmus from the urozonus speciesgroup, one with the ovipositor shorter than the metatibia and another with the ovipositor longer than the metatibia. The lectotype here selected belongs to the species with the longer ovipositor, as mentioned in the original description: “ Tibias, 0,76 mm […] tarière, 0,95 mm. ”. Etienne & Delvare (1987) give a short description of this species in a key for the parasitoid species associated with Solanum aethiopicum L. (Solanaceae). They mention the visible part of the ovipositor being as long as hind tibia, but this is probably due to different preservation techniques. Many specimens in the type series of E. elongatus have the second valvifer quite obviously exposed as a result of drying and hence apparent ovipositor sheath length is greater than hind tibia (but length of third valvulae about as long as hind tibia, measured according to Al khatib et al. [2014]). In critical point dried specimens of the same species gaster frequently nearly extends to apex of second valvifer and hence apparent ovipositor sheath length is sometimes about as long as hind tibia (usually at least slightly longer). Risbec (1951 a) was not consistent in using the name elongatus. Eupelmus elongatus was used in the heading of the original description (p. 208), but Eupelmella elongata on page 209 (for fig. 125). Similar to Eupelmus psychephagus, the confusion was most likely generated by the earlier inclusion of this species in the genus Eupelmella under the name Eupelmella elongata (nomen nudum) (Risbec 1950 a).	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFCEE11B218EEEF1FB036088.taxon	discussion	REMARKS A minuten-pin mounted female on a pin that bears an identification label in Risbec’s handwriting was selected as lectotype. Bouček (1976 b) wrongly considered this specimen as the holotype, but this cannot be regarded as a lectotype designation (ICZN Art. 74.6) because Risbec (1952) explicitly mentions four female syntypes from Bekily collected by A. Seyrig. We located two of the paralectotypes under Calosoter melanoptera Risbec, 1952 and the third in the slide collection. According to Bouček the species belongs to Eupelmus; he established the replacement name Eupelmus austron Bouček, 1976 for Macreupelmus australis Risbec, 1952 nec Idoleupelmus (= Eupelmus) australis Girault, 1915.

892FF605FFCDE119220DECF4FA9C65B7.taxon	discussion	REMARKS The name Baolia bicolor is undoubtedly a manuscript name by Risbec. It is most probably derived from the ancient Kingdom of Baol, where nowadays Bambey (the type locality) is situated. The comparison of the specimen on slide MNHN. 14.67 with the original description of Neanastatus tenuis var. bicolor shows without doubt that this is the holotype. The taxon was introduced as “ Neanastatus tenuis Ferrière, var. bicolor, n. var. ”, but as “ Neanastatus bicolor n. g., n. sp. ” under fig. 132, where “ n. g. ” probably refers to the intended new generic name Baolia. It was listed as a species again in the index on page 252 (Risbec 1951 a). We do not consider this citation in the index as an intended new status. Risbec never listed the full species plus variety name in the index for any variety described in this paper, but simply the variety name under the genus. The holotype is clearly conspecific with the specimen described by Ferrière (1938) as a morphotype of Neanastatus africanus Ferrière, 1938 with a yellow band on the mesoscutum. Neanastatus Girault, 1913 is a genus with a very uniform morphology, many species differing mostly in color pattern. It is not clear if in this case the color difference is of specific value or just intraspecific variability, as one of us (LF) could not find any other difference except color between the holotype of Neanastatus tenuis var. bicolor and the type material of Neanastatus africanus Ferrière (BMNH). However we take a conservative approach and treat N. bicolor as a distinct species. The examination of numerous specimens of N. africanus, including comparatively large series, shows that the mesoscutal color is a stable character.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFCCE11E22ECEC74FCE062CB.taxon	discussion	REMARKS This species was described based on a long series of males reared from various hosts (Risbec 1951 a); the specimens mentioned in the original description under letters b and f were not located in MNHN. The specimens on the last three slides are not part of the type series as they were not mentioned in the original description. Because the type series is heterogeneous and includes males of several Anastatus species, the male on slide ORSTOM. 2.2 is here designated lectotype. It is conspecific with the male on slide MNHN 14.22 (see under Anastatus aliberti) that contains also the lectotype and paralectotype females of Anastatus aliberti; all four specimens were reared from eggs of Homoeocerus Burmeister, 1835 (Hemiptera, Coreidae) at Abengourou. Risbec (1955), followed by Hedqvist (1970), considered this species as a synonym of Anastatus aliberti whereas Bouček (1976 b) was reluctant to accept this synonymy. Since the lectotype of Paravignalia hemipterae is conspecific with a male that is most likely that of A. aliberti, this synonymy is accepted in the present paper.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFCBE11E2077EED1FB136108.taxon	discussion	REMARKS This species was described from 17 females and one male. Specimens on slide ORSTOM. 2.56 are not from the type series as they were collected subsequently and from a different host. On slide MNHN. 14.74 there were originally 12 specimens (G. Gibson, pers. comm.), but only ten of them were found remounted. One female from this slide was selected as lectotype. It is entire and was labeled accordingly. Bouček (1976 b) transferred the species to Calosota.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFCBE11F22EFED92FD116596.taxon	discussion	REMARKS This species was described based on at least two specimens: “ Longueur du corps: 3,2 et 2,85 mm ”. Hedqvist (1970) reports seeing two specimens on one slide (slide MNHN. 14.68 is missing), but there is only one remounted female in the general collection (the lectotype). In BMNH there is a specimen without locality data, originating from Hedqvist’s personal collection but with an identification label by Hedqvist: “ Calosota / halyomorphae / (Risb. / ♀ / K-J Hedqvist det. 69 ”. This is a paralectotype of Polymoria halyomorphae since Hedqvist (1970), when redescribing the species, mentions only the two Risbec’s syntypes, without any other additional specimens.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.

892FF605FFCAE11F218FEA15FC2C6637.taxon	discussion	REMARKS Males on slides MNHN. 14.79 and ORSTOM. 2.10 are not part of the type series, as the species was described based on males reared from Halyomorpha annulicornis (Signoret, 1858) eggs (Hemiptera, Pentatomidae) and one specimen collected on black-eyed pea (niébé). Specimens on these two slides were reared from Lepidoptera eggs and have antennae with a very long clava. Specimens on slides MNHN, ORSTOM. 2.8, 2.9 and MNHN. 14.78 have the right labels and are all regarded as syntypes, but each slide apparently contains males of a different species (i. e. three species involved). Although the male on slide ORSTOM. 2.8 fits better the original description, it lacks both antennae and the head is badly damaged. Because of this, the male on slide ORSTOM. 2.9, collected on blackeyed pea (niébé), is selected as lectotype. The original description wrongly states that the species was described based on both females and males. Risbec (1955), synonymized Vignalia halyomorphae under Anastatus nezarae Risbec, 1951 (= A. apantelesi). Nonveiller (1984) has repeated this synonymy but it does not seem to be supported because, as noted above, Risbec identified as Vignalia halyomorphae the males of at least three different Anastatus species. Hedqvist (1970) accidentally listed V. halyomorphae as a synonym of Anastatus apantelesi var. pseudocreobotrae Risbec, 1951.	en	Fusu, Lucian, Ebrahimi, Ebrahim, Siebold, Cedric, Villemant, Claire (2015): Revision of the Eupelmidae Walker, 1833 described by Jean Risbec.
