Thaumasura brevicaudata ( Westwood, 1874) View in CoL

Belonea brevicaudata Westwood 1874:147 View in CoL ; Holotype ♀, Indonesia: Misool Island (type lost) [transferred to Thaumasura View in CoL by Bouček (1988:245)].

Note. As per literature, T. brevicaudata View in CoL is closely related to T. femoralis View in CoL , but can be distinguished from it by smaller size shorter abdomen, red legs and its syntergum one fourth as long as the ovipositor sheaths. The species is currently known only by a single female specimen from Mysol (Misool) in West Papua, Indonesia ( Westwood, 1874) presumably deposited in W.W. Saunders collection of OXUM. The type even after thorough searching were untraceable (J. Hogan, pers. comm.) and hence treated missing.
