The genus Phanerotomella Szépligeti (Insecta, Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Cheloninae) from China, with description of sixteen new species

The genus Phanerotomella Szépligeti, 1900 (Insecta, Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Cheloninae) is revised for China, including 42 species. A total of 16 new species are described: P. annulata sp. nov., P. atratoides sp. nov., P. aurantisoma sp. nov., P. brevifemorata sp. nov., P. digitata sp. nov., P. distenticornis sp. nov., P. emeiensis sp. nov., P. exilicornis sp. nov., P. flavigena sp. nov., P. fulgida sp. nov., P. fuscitibialis sp. nov., P. nigrisoma sp. nov., P. rugifera sp. nov., P. rugulosa sp. nov., P. tenuipes sp. nov., and P. xui sp. nov. Eight species are newly recorded for China: P. albiscapa (Ashmead, 1905), P. barbieri Sigwalt, 1978, P. bellula Papp, 1989, P. bisulcata (Herrich-Schäffer, 1838), P. collinsi Zettel, 1989, P. hawaiiensis (Ashmead, 1901), P. mellivena van Achterberg nom. nov., and P. yemenitica van Achterberg, 2021. Seven new synonyms are proposed: P. gracilimandiblis Chen & Ji, 2003 is synonymised with P. bicolorata He & Chen, 1995; P. longieyes Chen & Ji, 2003 and P. picticornis Chen & Ji, 2003 are synonymised with P. collinsi Zettel, 1989; P. longipedes Chen & Ji, 2003 is synonymised with P. taiwanensis Zettel, 1989; P. rugifrontatus Chen & Ji, 2003 is synonymised with P. bellula Papp, 1989; P. variareolata Belokobylskij, 1986 is synonymised with P. pulchra Fahringer, 1934; and P. flava Lӑcӑtușu, 1963 is synonymised with P. rufa (Marshall, 1898), while P. flava Zettel, 1989 is renamed P. mellivena van Achterberg nom. nov.
