Key to species of Apogonatopus

♀♀

1. Mesosoma with two long distinct lateral longitudinal sutures joining lateral pointed apophyses of metapectal-propodeal disc to mesothoracic, metathoracic and propodeal spiracles and separating metapectal-propodeal disc + metanotum from metapleura and mesonotum from mesopleura ( Figs 255C View FIGURE 255 , 256C View FIGURE 256 ); palpal formula 4/3..................... A. madagascariensis Olmi

- Mesosoma with two very short distinct lateral longitudinal sutures leaving from lateral pointed apophyses of metapectal-propodeal disc, directed to propodeal spiracles, not reaching them ( Figs 255A View FIGURE 255 , 256A View FIGURE 256 ); palpal formula 2/2... A. edaphicus Olmi
