Zaischnopsis Ashmead 1904

5. Zaischnopsis Ashmead, 1904 This genus comprises 47 species worldwide; 10 species have previously been recorded from China (Tang et al. 2022). Female characteristics (Gibson 1995; Tang et al. 2022). Body typically dark with various metallic lusters, but sometimes yellow to brown. The ventral margin of the torulus is positioned lower than the lower orbit. The scrobal depression varies from shallow to deep but dorsally delimits a linear or very narrow parascrobal region along the upper inner orbit. The antennal scape is sometimes slender, though often variably compressed. The mandible is tridentate. The pronotum in dorsal view is subtriangular in shape and is medially divided. The mesoscutum is usually relatively flat, with the anterior and lateral lobes slightly raised and the posterior part slightly concave. The mesopectus bears setae, the acropleuron is typically bare. The fore wing is usually hyaline basally, but becomes infuscate beyond the parastigma and sometimes has one or more lighter coloured bands or spots behind the marginal vein similar to Anastatus. The mesotibia has an oblique apical groove and a patch of dark apical pegs. The gaster is elongate, with the base usually lacking a white region, unlike species of Anastatus. The propodeum has the medial plical region broadly sublinear to subrectangular, sculptured and in a similar plane as the callar regions. The syntergum is reflexed apically, forming a fingernail-like flange. Because of their banded fore wings, females are superficially similar to most females of Anastatus, but differ in their tridentate mandibles, propodeal structure, and gaster being uniformly coloured.
