Revision of the Oriental genera of Agathidinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) with an emphasis on Thailand including interactive keys to genera published in three different formats

The genera of Oriental Agathidinae are revised and a fully illustrated dichotomous key is presented. New generic concepts are proposed for Bassus Fabricius, 1804 and Hypsostypos Baltazar, 1963. Bassus is restricted to a clade with an Old World distribution and the remaining members are divided amongst the resurrected genera Camptothlipsis Enderlein, 1920, Lytopylus FÖrster, 1862, and T erophilus Wesmael, 1837. T e con- cept of Hypsostypos is restricted and the new genus Amputostypos Sharkey, gen. n. is proposed to include species formerly included in Hypsostypos that do not have raised antennal bases. Troticus Brullé, 1846 is reported from the Oriental region for the fi rst time. Eighteen genera are recognized for T ailand and neigh- boring areas, i.e., Agathis Latreille, 1804, Amputostypos, Aneurobracon Brues, 1930, Bassus, Biroia Szépligeti, 1900, Braunsia Kriechbaumer, 1894, Camptothlipsis, Coccygidium Saussure, 1892, Cremnops Förster, 1862,Disophrys Förster, 1862, Earinus Wesmael, 1837, Euagathis Szépligeti, 1900, Gryochus Enderlein, 1920, Hypsostypos, Lytopylus Förster, 1862, T erophilus, Cremnoptoides van Achterberg & Chen, 2004, and Troticus. Identifi cation keys to the genera are provided as a standard textual dichotomous key, as well as online keys in three diff erent formats (conventional dichotomous, DELTA/Intkey, Lucid, and MX) to enable users to choose their prefered platform and to allow direct comparisons of the technologies for producing online keys. Publication of underlying data (data matrices, character states table, and images) under the OpenData- Commons license (ODbl) (http://www.opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1.0/) for DELTA/Intkey fi les (doi: 10.3897/zookeys.21.271.app.1.ik), primary DELTA fi les (10.3897/zookeys.21.271.app.2.ik) Lucid3 (LIF3) and Lucid SDD key data fi les (doi: 10.3897/zookeys.21.271.app.3.ik) and MX MySQL database fi les (doi: 10.3897/zookeys.21.271.app.4.ik) allows future workers to edit keys and to add newly described taxa. T e data fi les for the keys published and stored on the publisher’s website and in e-archives have the rights of “fi rst publication” identifi ed by its bibliography data, location and citation. Readers should cite the fi rst published version and the day of accession in case they use future online versions of the same key. T e concept of publication, citation, preservation, and re-use of data fi les to interactive keys under the open access model is discussed in a forum paper published in the present issue (doi: 10.3897/zookeys.21.274).
