	abstract = {The Neotropical species of Gasteruption Latreille are revised, described, diagnosed, and illustrated; a key for females is provided. Twenty six valid species are recognized, thirteen of which are described as new: G. amputatum Townes, G. barnstoni (Westwood), G. bertae n. sp., G. bispinosum Kieffer, G. brachychaetum Schrottky, G. brandaoi n. sp., G. brasiliense (Blanchard), G. floridanum (Bradley), G. glauciae n. sp., G. guildingi (Westwood), G. hansoni n. sp., G. helenae n. sp., G. huberi n. sp., G. kaweahense (Bradley), G. lianae n. sp., G. loiaconoae n. sp., G. masneri n. sp., G. oliveirai n. sp., G. parvum Schrottky, G. rafaeli n. sp., G. sartor Schletterer, G. smithi n. sp., G. tenue Kieffer, G. townesi (Alayo), G. visaliae (Bradley), and G. wahli n. sp. The following new synonymies are proposed: G. maculicorne Cameron, G. macroderum Schletterer, and G. zapotecum Schletterer with G. barnstoni; G. bihamatum Kieffer, G. fallens Kieffer, G. fiebrigi Schrottky, G. leptodomum Kieffer, G. montivagum Kieffer, and G. strandi Kieffer with G. bispinosum; G. annulitarse Schrottky, G. brasiliae Kieffer, G. gracillimum (Schletterer), G. longicauda Kieffer, G. petroselini Schrottky, G. subtropicale Schrottky and G. torridum (Bradley) with G. brasiliense; G. rufipectus (Westwood) with G. guildingi; G. angustatum (Kieffer) with G. kaweahense; G. horni Br{\`e}thes with G. parvum. The following taxa are considered as species inquirendae: G. albitarse Schletterer, G. austini Jennings and Smith, G. subcoriaceum Kieffer n. stat., and G. tenuicolle Schletterer. As well, G rubrum Taschenberg is synonymized with Pseudofoenus infumatus (Schletterer). In addition, G. tenue Pasteels, 1957a from Australia is a junior homonym of G. tenue Kieffer, 1922 and is renamed G. pasteelsi n. name.},

	title = {The spatial complexity in describing leg surfaces of Hymenoptera (Insecta), the problem and a proposed solution},
	journal = {Zootaxa},
	volume = {2415},
	year = {2010},
	pages = {54-62},
	abstract = {A significant procedural problem in describing the leg surfaces of Hymenoptera, which has not been explicitly treated in the literature before, is identified and a mitigating solution is proposed. The first accurate, three-dimensional illustrations of the surfaces of the three pairs of legs are also provided to illustrate the problem and the proposed solution. In Hymenoptera, the orientation of the front, middle and hind pairs of legs relative to the body can and often do differ in direction by up to 180{\textordmasculine} between the front and hind legs. Furthermore, the tibiae and tarsi are usually held at an abrupt angle relative to the femora. Because of this, the terms anterior, posterior, lateral, outer, mesal, inner, dorsal, and ventral, when applied to surfaces of different parts of different legs will frequently refer to non-homologous areas depending on whether the terms are interpreted or used in an anatomic sense or based on the specific direction and orientation of the part of the leg being described (vernacular sense). Authors often use the vernacular interpretation, but we show that such usage makes the terminology on average 53.1\% incompatible for the same anatomical surfaces of the femora, tibiae and tarsi of the three sets of legs. To create equivalence between anatomical and vernacular senses, four intuitive vernacular terms are proposed as explanatory or auxiliary terms for the anatomical terms {\textquotedblleft}dorsal{\textquotedblright}, {\textquotedblleft}ventral{\textquotedblright} {\textquotedblleft}anterior{\textquotedblright}, and {\textquotedblleft}posterior{\textquotedblright}, respectively, kickface, gripface, foreface, and backface. The terms are proposed as auxiliary or explanatory terms and not as substitutes for the anatomical terms.},
