Description. FEMALE. Body length (of the dry-mounted paratypes) 1230–1400 µm. Head ( Fig. 33 View FIGURES 32–37 ) and mesosoma ( Fig. 34 View FIGURES 32–37 ) dark brown or black except eyes and ocelli pale or dirty pink; petiole yellowish or light brown; gaster ( Fig. 36 View FIGURES 32–37 ) brown to dark brown; scape and pedicel mostly light brown, F1 yellowish brown or brown, remainder of flagellum dark brown; legs yellowish or light brown except distal tarsomeres brown.

Most of face with weak sculpture, vertex with more conspicuous reticulate sculpture.

Antenna ( Fig. 32 View FIGURES 32–37 ) long and slender, with radicle 0.22–0.23x length of scape, remainder of scape 4.5–4.9x as long as wide, a little wider medially than basally or apically, faintly longitudinally striate; pedicel about as long or slightly longer than F1; all funicle segments longer than wide and subequal in length except F2 and F8 a little shorter and sometimes F1 slightly longer, F1 and F2 without mps, F3 usually with 1 mps but occasionally lacking it on one of the antennae, F4–F8 each with 2 mps; clava 2.9–3.3x as long as wide, almost as long as scape (including radicle), longer than combined length of F6–F8 or F1–F3, with 8 mps.

Mesosoma ( Fig. 34 View FIGURES 32–37 ) with pronotum weakly sculptured; mesoscutum and scutellum with strong reticulate sculpture (the cells a little smaller and less pronounced on anterior scutellum); metanotum smooth, with posterior margin slightly, broadly rounded; propodeum ( Fig. 35 View FIGURES 32–37 ) mostly smooth, with median carina much shorter than median areole; lateral carinae subparallel, extending to anterior margin of propodeum.

Forewing ( Fig. 37 View FIGURES 32–37 ) 2.8–3.0x as long as wide; disc with slight brownish tinge throughout, densely setose but bare behind base of submarginal vein, at least slightly truncate apically; longest marginal seta 0.16–0.19x greatest width of wing. Hind wing ( Fig. 37 View FIGURES 32–37 ) 15–17x as long as wide; disc with slight brownish tinge and densely setose throughout except for sparser setae or a small bare area just behind and beyond apex of venation; longest marginal seta 1.7–2.0x greatest width of wing.

Pro- and mesocoxae smooth, metacoxa with weak reticulate sculpture.

Gaster ( Fig. 36 View FIGURES 32–37 ) longer than mesosoma; petiole 2.6–3.3x as long as wide, wider apically than basally, smooth, 0.9–1.1x as long as metacoxa; ovipositor relatively long, occupying at least 0.9x length of gaster, usually notably exserted beyond apex of gaster (by 0.08–0.16x own length), 1.2–1.4x length of metatibia.

Measurements (µm) of the holotype: Mesosoma: 480; petiole: 136; gaster: 670; ovipositor: 707. Antenna: radicle: 61; rest of scape: 209; pedicel: 75; F1: 67; F2: 64; F3: 68; F4: 68; F5: 68; F6: 67; F7: 67; F8: 62; clava: 248. Forewing: 1390:480; longest marginal seta: 79. Hind wing: 1046:70; longest marginal seta: 121. Legs (given as coxa, femur, tibia, tarsus): fore: 136, 294, 302, 316; middle: 124, 309, 464, 315; hind: 145, 330, 517, 327.

MALE. Unknown.

Diagnosis. Ooctonus lokomotiv sp. n. is similar to the somewhat larger O. insignis Haliday (both species have 8 mps on the clava of the female antenna), from which it differs in having usually 1 mps on F3 of the female antennae and a relatively longer ovipositor, as indicated in the key.

Hosts. Unknown.

Etymology. This species name (a noun in apposition) is that of FC Lokomotiv Moskva ( Moscow, Russia) of the Russian Football (Soccer) Premier League.
