Neodryinus karnalensis Kurian, 1955 , 4: 74, 75, Figs 36–38 View FIGURE 36 View FIGURE 37 View FIGURE 38 .

Type locality: Karnal , Haryana, India (♂ holotype, NFIC-FRI) .

Diagnosis. Male. Length 2.1 mm–2.8 mm. General colour dark reddish-brown to black. Head as long as wide; frons weakly coriaceus; ocelli distinct; eye setose; median clypeal lobe conspicuous, anterior margin concave; mandible pentadentate; antenna with 10 segments, scape as long as pedicel. Pronotum weakly coriaceous; mesonotum longer than pronotal dorsal area; notauli present, longer than parapsidal signum. Metapectal-propodeal disc as long as wide; metapostnotal median carina absent. Wings hyaline; forewing with pterostigma brown. Metasoma polished. Female. Unknown.

Material examined. Holotype: [ INDIA], Haryana, Karnal, from pupa of a Dryinid on sugarcane leaf, 12-X- 1937, C.S.266, K. Lakshman coll. Paratype: 1♂, same data of holotype, except reared from sugarcane, X-XI-1935, N. Ayyar coll., Pusa Collection .

Type conditions. Holotype partly dissected on slide Nº. 72/B and remaining rested on the pin. Head is missing. Pinned: mesosoma with intact left forewing, left metaleg, right coxae and metasoma. On slides : not found in NFIC- FRI. Paratype partly dissected on slide Nº. 2/B and remaining rested on the pin. Pinned: not in NFIC-FRI. On slides : S1 C1—one forewing and one hind wing; S1 C2—one antenna without scape, apical flagellomeres separated.S2 C1 one leg without coxa.

Remarks. The holotype is in too poor a condition to identify and compare it to other dryinids, and the genus identification is likely wrong.

Hosts. Unknown.
