sp. nov.

Anteonopsis antiquus Olmi, Rasnitsyn & Guglielmino , n. sp.

Material examined: female holotype, PIN no. 3901/130 from Eastern Siberia, Magadan Region, Obeschchayushchiyi fossil site, Upper Cretaceous (Cenomanian), Ola Formation (90–95 mybp).

FEMALE ( Figs 11–12 View FIGURES 11 – 12 ): apparently without wings; length 7.2 mm; antennae clavate; number of antennal segments not distinct; head subspheroidal, with eyes small and clypeus and mandibles projecting in front of head; pronotum long, less broad at anterior margin than at posterior; pronotal tubercles apparently reaching tegulae; mesothorax and metathorax not clearly distinct; propodeum apparently reticulate rugose, with areolae very large; petiole very short; chela not visible; legs only partly visible; sting present; palpi not visible; tibial spurs not visible.

MALE: unknown.

Remarks: this specimen is only partly visible. However, the shape of the head and pronotum, the very large areolae of the propodeum and the general shape of the body suggest that it belongs to Dryinidae and not to another family of Chrysidoidea. Because of the above characters as a whole, the authors attribute tentatively this specimen to Dryinidae .
