“…Heimpel et al (1997) have mentioned, that there is a cryptic species among H. hebetor, which is sexually isolated and has different biologic traits. At the same time, Habrobracon brevicornis Wesmael 1838 has been suspected to form a valid species and not a synonym of H. hebetor, but it has not been verified yet (Chomphukhiao et al, 2018;Quicke, 2015), although some authors have treated it as a separate species (Haider et al, 2004;van Achterberg, 2014;van Achterberg & Polaszek, 1996). H. hebetor and H. brevicornis have been formally synonymised by Puttarudriaha & Basavannaa (1956), and then this synonymy has been subsequently used by many authors (Papp, 2012;Tobias, 1986).…”
