Data from: A review of Western Amblyscelio and Baryconus (Hymenoptera: Platygastroidea, Platygastridae)

The European species of the genera Amblyscelio and Baryconus are reviewed and revised based on morphological data. Females of Amblyscelio striaticeps Kieffer, 1913 and Baryconus graeffei (Kieffer, 1908) are described and the ovipositor of Amblyscelio is illustrated for the first time. The monotypic genus Amblyscelio was previously known only from a single male specimen. Baryconus graeffei is confirmed as a distinct species, while B. orbus Kononova, 2008 is recognized as a junior subjective synonym of B. europaeus (Kieffer, 1908) syn. nov. These findings are supported by a principal component analysis (PCA) of ratios of various distance measurements. Amblyscelio striaticeps is newly recorded from Greece and Slovenia, Baryconus graeffei from France, Greece, Montenegro and Turkey and B. europaeus (Kieffer, 1908) from Croatia, France, Morocco, Portugal, Sicily, Spain and the United Arab Emirates.

本研究基于形态学数据，对Amblyscelio属及Baryconus属的欧洲物种开展了分类修订与系统综述。本文对Amblyscelio striaticeps Kieffer, 1913与Baryconus graeffei (Kieffer, 1908)的雌性个体进行了形态描述，并首次绘制了Amblyscelio属的产卵器形态图。此前，单型属Amblyscelio仅知有1头雄性标本。本研究确认Baryconus graeffei为独立有效物种，同时将B. orbus Kononova, 2008认定为B. europaeus (Kieffer, 1908)的主观次异名（新异名，syn. nov.）。上述结论得到了基于各类距离测量值比值的主成分分析（PCA）的支持。本次研究新增了以下物种的分布记录：Amblyscelio striaticeps分布于希腊与斯洛文尼亚；Baryconus graeffei分布于法国、希腊、黑山及土耳其；B. europaeus (Kieffer, 1908)分布于克罗地亚、法国、摩洛哥、葡萄牙、西西里岛、西班牙及阿拉伯联合酋长国。
