“…Within this family, Bruchopria hexatoma Kieffer is known as a myrmecophile and is associated with the fi re ant Solenopsis richteri (Kieffer, 1921). Loiácono et al (2002) suggests that species of the genus Bruchopria could be parasitoids of ant larvae.…”

http://www.eje.cz (Fowler et al., 1989). In the last decade, there have been numerous studies on ant parasitoids (Bragança et al., 2021) and other insects associated with ants (Parker, 2016; Rocha et al., 2020), however, most of these focus on aspects of ecology and control (Chen & Fadamiro, 2018 -review).The Neotropical Forest fi re ant Solenopsis virulens was described by Frederick Smith ( 1858), but there are very few studies on its biology. This species belongs to the fi re ant Solenopsis virulens species-group (Pitts et al., 2018) and is more poorly studied than other species of fi re ant (Fox, 2014). Only in the last decade have aspects of its biology and nests been published (Pereira et al., 2015(Pereira et al., , 2021. This ant has been collected almost exclusively in three different forest biomes in Brazil: Atlantic Forest (Resende et al., 2011), Caatinga Dry Forest (Arnan et al., 2018 and Amazonian Forest (Prado et al., 2019). Papers on this species are limited to worker ants captured by traps (Oliveira et al., 2009) or taxonomic studies (Pitts et al., 2018). This is probably related to the fact that colonies of these ants are rarely found compared to other species of fi re ant. Their

En esta contribución se presenta la información actualizada de los diaprioideos y se efectúa una recopilación acerca de indicadores biológicos -representatividad taxonómica y geográfica– aplicados a los ejemplares de la colección de Diaprioidea del Museo de La Plata, Argentina. Respecto a las subfamilias Ambositrinae y Diapriinae, el 62.3% y el 64,28 de los ejemplares respectivamente, están identificados a nivel genérico, y en cuanto a Belytinae el 60,93% a nivel subfamilia; Las provincias argentinas de Neuquén y Misiones son las que presentan mayor representatividad geográfica; los géneros más representados en la colección son Dissoxylabis Kieffer (74,28%), Gladicauda Early (53,89%) y Spilomicrus Westwood (37,45%). Se brinda la lista de taxones presentes en la colección. El análisis de las asociaciones parasitoide hospedador dio como resultado 35 registros de hospedadores.

We provide an overview of diapriid wasps associated with ants in Argentina and the diversity of interactions they have developed with their hosts. As a result, we report 16 species of nine genera of Diapriinae, two new geographic distributions, three new association records, illustrations, and photographs. We highlight myrmecophile symphylic species, with a high degree of integration with the host ants, adaptation being morphological and behavioral. A table with diapriid species and ant hosts is given.
