“…They are considered a rare group in which numerous species are known from few specimens from few localities, even in many species only the typical material is known. The phylogeny and the biogeography of the group have been analyzed in three excellent works by Vilhelmsen (Figures 1-3) [1,2,3]. The adults of this family are characterized by presenting cylindrical body, with very hard integuments, a head with two tubercles on the face, widely separated eyes located on both sides of jaws articulated, antennae short and stout inserted below the clypeus, under the eyes and at the level of the mouth, intermediate tibiae with two spurs, front tarsi with 5 knuckles in males and 3 knuckles in females, antennae divided into 11 segments in males and 10 in females and, in these last ones, a long and thin ovipositor; the forewings have a single mid-ulnar cell, the rest of the veins are greatly reduced and appear only lightly pigmented (Figure 4…”

The biology of the Siricoidea superfamily, a sister group of the Symphyta and the family Orussidae (Parasitica: Woodwasps), can be imagined as the evolution of parasitoids would have been. The larvae of the Siricoidea wasps generally feed on dead wood that has been previously digested by a fungal symbiont. For this reason, many species carry spores of the fungus that they leave on the wood during oviposition. Diversity and ecology of parasitoid insects of the Family Orussidae (Insecta: Hymenoptera). In summary, basically, the following steps of analysis were covered: Exhaustive reading of each national and international article aiming at a global understanding and discovery of the approach used by its authors; Identification of the central ideas of each article; Classification of ideas around nuclei of meaning; Comparison between the different nuclei of meaning present in the studied articles; Classification of the nuclei of meaning in broader axes (themes) around which the authors' discussions revolved and (e) writing of the interpretative syntheses of the theme. Book scientific chapters, theses banks, university dissertations, national and international scientific articles, scientific journals book scientific chapters, theses banks, university dissertations, scientific journals and https://www.researchgate.net/post/How_to_increase_the_research_results_v... were also used. https://goo.gl/gLTTTs), HAL (https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/submit/index, SSRN (https://hq.ssrn.com/login/pubsigninjoin.cfm and ResearchGate (https ://www.researchgate.net/signup.SignUp.html).

Hymenoptera is one of the largest insect orders, with a world fauna of 155.5 thousand species in 8423 genera from 94 extant families, a Palaearctic fauna of 50–60 thousand estimated species, and a Russian fauna of more than 15 thousand estimated species in more than 1500 genera from 78 families. The modern classification of Hymenoptera is given. The first volume treats the sawflies (13 families, 170 genera, 1546 species), wasps (15 families, 253 genera, 1695 species), ants (1 family, 44 genera, 264 species) and bees (6 families, 66 genera, 1216 species) which together, in Russia, comprise 4721 species in 533 genera. The sections for each of the 35 families include characteristics, number of taxa, references, and an annotated catalogue of the genera and species recorded from the fauna of Russia. For each valid genus the type species, synonymy, short characterization, and number of species are given. For each valid species the synonymy, known host plants, hosts or prey, and distribution (in Russia and general) are provided. The book is illustrated using geoschemes for Russia, Europe, and China. The large bibliography helps to assess the level of study of each family. The index of scientific names of Hymenoptera (more than 16000 names) will be useful for taxon searching.

A new Orussus species from South Korea, and a key to the East Asian Orussidae (Hymenoptera)

Abstract: Orussus melanosoma Lee & Wei, sp. nov. from South Korea is described and illustrated. Phylogenetic analyses place the new species basally in Orussus, together with other species from the Far East. A key to species of Orussidae from the eastern Palaearctic is provided.
