Redefinition of genus Tarasco Marsh (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Doryctinae) and description of two new Brazilian species

Abstract

A redefinition of the genus Tarasco Marsh is provided along with description of two new species found in Brazil (T. granulata Barbalho and Penteado-Dias, new species and T. costata Barbalho and Scatolini, new species). This redefinition of the genus considers variation in characters in wing venation, such as the presence of vein r-m in the fore wing and vein 1-SC+R being complete and tubular in the hind wing.
