摘要
A new species of the genus Chrysonotomyia Ashmead, Chrysonotomyia ophelimi Zheng & Yefremova sp. nov. (green shield wasp) (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) is described from the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China. This species was reared as parasitoid of the Eucalyptus gall wasp Ophelimus bipolaris Chen & Yao (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae). The new parasitoid wasp is identified based on morphological features and molecular analysis of 28S rRNA genes. Both sexes of the newly described species are illustrated, and identification keys are provided.
