Abstract
AbstractA molecular phylogeny of the subfamily Rogadinae is presented for 469 species in 52 genera representing all tribes and subtribes. The data comprise cytochromecoxidase I sequences (DNA barcodes), together with a broad representation of 28S rDNA D2‐D3 expansion region, EF1‐αgene and 16S rDNA fragments. To test monophyly, most genera were represented by multiple species. The analysis of the complete dataset recovered a monophyletic Rogadinae with low support. All six tribes were recovered as monophyletic with the following relationships: (Rogadini, (Stiropiini, (Clinocentrini, (Betylobraconini, [Yeliconini, Aleiodini])))). Three new genera are recognized:AfrorogasQuickegen.n.(type speciesAfrorogas copelandiQuickesp.n.) for a mainland Afrotropical species;AmanirogasQuickegen.n.(type speciesAmanirogas isolatusQuickesp.n.), previously treated as aRogasspecies from Tanzania; andPapuarogasQuickegen.n.(type speciesP.dameniQuickesp.n.), for species from Papua New Guinea.IporhogasGranger is synonymized withTroporhogasCameron. The African generaMyoporhogasBrues,Scoporogasvan Achterberg and the endemic New Zealand genusRhinoprotomavan Achterberg are synonymized withAleiodes. A formal diagnosis of the Aleiodini Muesebeck is provided for the first time.This published work has been registered on ZooBank,http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:F24DC64C‐54B7‐45DA‐AB8E‐52DC3E34545C
