Abstract

Descriptions of four new species of the genus Dinotrema Foerster with a mesoscutal pit and only medially sculptured propodeum are given. Dinotrema alysiae sp. n. (Denmark, England, Netherlands, Spain), Dinotrema paramicum sp. n. (Denmark, Finland), Dinotrema tirolense sp. n. (Italy) and Dinotrema valvulatum sp. n. (Denmark, Italy).

Highlights

  • The genus Dinotrema Foerster, 1862 is the largest genus of the subfamily Alysiinae with approximately 320 species described worldwide (Yu et al 2005)

  • About 250 species of this genus were recorded in the European fauna (Fischer 1972, 1973a, 1993, 1996; van Achterberg 1988; Tobias 2003, 2004a, 2004b, 2006, etc)

  • The current status of the genus Dinotrema was established by van Achterberg (1988), and this genus differs from the closely related Aspilota Foerster, 1862 in the size of paraclypeal areas which are not connected to the inner eye margin
