A904728617E2193BC76631073986996C.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Among the Chinese species of Rhogadopsis with the second and third metasomal tergites striate or aciculate the new species can be separated as follows: from R. dimidia (Chen & Weng, 2005) by having a medio-posterior depression of the mesoscutum (absent in R. dimidia), length of eye about 2.5 times temple in dorsal view (about 7 times) and basal half of notauli largely smooth (crenulate). Rhogadopsis sculpta (Chen & Weng, 2005) has the second and third tergites partly superficially striate, a medio-posterior depression of the mesoscutum and the anterior half of the notauli present on the mesoscutal disc, but has vein 2 - SR + M of fore wing slightly shorter than vein m-cu or subequal (distinctly shorter than vein m-cu in R. aciculifera). Rhogadopsis tabidula (Weng & Chen, 2005) and R. sculpturator Li & van Achterberg, 2013, are similar but the new species has the anterior half of the notauli impressed (absent or as a shallow impression on mesoscutal disc in both species), hind femur and tibia similarly ivory as the hind coxa (hind femur and tibia yellow, different from pale hind coxa), vein r of fore wing about twice as long as wide (about as long as wide) and the propodeum without distinct costulae (with distinct costulae).	en	Chen, Meng, van Achterberg, Cornelis, Tan, Jiang-Li, Tan, Qing-qing, Chen, Xue-Xin (2016): Four new species of Rhogadopsis Brethes from NW China (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Opiinae).

1A22399C61E14AE71EEBEFBEAD468CA3.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The new species is close to R. moniliata sp. n., for the differences see the diagnosis of this species. It shares with R. infernalis (Fischer, 1966) from the Philippines the first tergite about 1.5 times as long as wide apically, antenna of ♂ with 35 - 37 segments and a rather short temple (eye 3.2 - 4.0 times as long as temple in dorsal view, not twice, as is mentioned in the original description, in the paratype examined). Rhogadopsis infernalis has the third antennal segment about twice as long as wide (about 3 times in R. moniliata), the propodeum with some superficial rugae (with complete median carina and costulae), the precoxal sulcus short (long) and the hind femur 3 times as long as wide (about 4.5 times). The length of the ovipositor sheath of R. infernalis is unknown because the type series consists of only males.	en	Chen, Meng, van Achterberg, Cornelis, Tan, Jiang-Li, Tan, Qing-qing, Chen, Xue-Xin (2016): Four new species of Rhogadopsis Brethes from NW China (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Opiinae).

C60596955955CF6E96E50DD61AD2E76D.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The new species is similar to R. cracentata but the setose part of the ovipositor sheath is longer (0.5 - 0.7 times hind tibia and about twice as long as hind basitarsus versus 0.2 times hind tibia and slightly shorter than hind basitarsus in R. cracentata), the third and fourth antennal segments of the ♀ are robust (Fig. 52; slenderer in R. cracentata), the first metasomal tergite is rather stout (1.2 - 1.4 times longer than its apical width versus 1.5 - 1.9 times) and the hind femur is wider (about 3.7 times as long as wide versus 4.5 - 4.7 times). It shares with R. infernalis (Fischer, 1966) from the Philippines the robust third antennal segment (being about twice as long as wide), the rather short temple (eye 3.2 - 4.0 times as long as temple in dorsal view) and the robust hind femur. Rhogadopsis infernalis has the propodeum with some superficial rugae (with complete median carina and costulae in R. cracentata), the precoxal sulcus short (long) and the antenna has about 37 segments (30 - 34 segments). The length of the ovipositor sheath of R. infernalis is unknown because the type series consists of only males.	en	Chen, Meng, van Achterberg, Cornelis, Tan, Jiang-Li, Tan, Qing-qing, Chen, Xue-Xin (2016): Four new species of Rhogadopsis Brethes from NW China (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Opiinae).
