van Achterberg & Austin 1992: 10; Quicke et al. 2008: 2709; Yu et al. 2016.
This small sigalphine genus is distributed only in the fauna of Madagascar. The type species, M. petiolaris van Achterberg & Austin View in CoL , was described from Cape d’Ambre, the most northerly part of this island. A second species of this genus, M. roa Sharkey, 2008 View in CoL , was already described from Parc National Andohahela, Tolear Province (southwestern Madagascar), and was collected in Malaise trap in dry spiny forest ( Quicke et al. 2008). I herein describe a third Malasigalphus View in CoL species, collected in Massif du Makay, Toliar Province.
