	year = {2009},
	pages = {349-377},
	abstract = {Two species of opiine Braconidae, reared from fruit-infesting Tephritidae in Kenya, are described. Psyt- talia masneri, sp. n., was reared from fruits of Dracaena fragrans (L.) Ker Gawl. (Liliaceae) infested with Taomyia marshalli Bezzi in western Kenya. Psyttalia masneri is the only opiine braconid known to attack members of the genus Taomyia. Unusual morphological features of P. masneri and its host are detailed. Psyttalia halidayi, sp. n., was reared from fruits of Lettowianthus stellatus Diels (Annonaceae) infested with Ceratitis rosa Karsch in coastal Kenya. Psyttalia halidayi is morphologically similar to several described species of Psyttalia that have previously been used in the biological control of tephritid pests. Unlike these other species, P. halidayi can attack and successfully develop on C. rosa, a serious pest of cultivated fruits. A list of valid species in Psyttalia is provided, along with comments on species groups and host records.},

Four new species are described: Eurytenes (Eurytenes) dichro- mus sp. n. from Texas, E. (E.) microsomus sp. n. from Texas, E. (E.) pachycephalus sp. n. from Mexico, and E. (E.) ormenus sp. n. from Mexico. Eurytenes abnormis (Wesmael) is redescribed for comparison, and its host records are reviewed.},

	journal = {Transactions of the Royal Society of South Australia},
	volume = {116},
	year = {1992},
	pages = {41-63},
	abstract = {Three subfamilies of Braconidae are recorded from Australia for the first time with the description of the following new species from Queensland: Ecnomios stenosoma sp. nov. (Ecnomiinae), Histeromerus c1avatus sp. nov. (Histeromerinae), and Meteoridea anic sp. nov. (Meteorideinae). The tribe Muesebeckiini is also specifically recorded from Australia for the first time with the description of Paroligoneurus pallidus sp. nov. (Ichneutinae) from the Northern Territory, Queensland and New South Wales, as is the genus Chrysopophthorus Goidanich, with the description of C. hageni sp. nov. (Euphorinae) from South Australia. A new species of the Australian endemic subfamily Mesostoinae from South Australia and Victoria, Mesostoa kerri sp. nov., is described, as is a new species of the little-known genus Calohelcon Turner (Helconinae) from central Australia, C. dangerfieldi sp. nov. The diagnoses, biogeography and biology of these taxa are discussed and notes are provided on the euphorine genus Stenothremma Shaw, previously thought to be rare within the Australian fauna. Keys to species are provided for the genera Histeromerus Wesmael, Mesostoa van Achterberg and Culohelcon Turner.},
