PARANAPHOIDEA View in CoL ( IDIOCENTRUS Gahan, 1927 )
( Figs 247–251 View FIGURES 247–249 View FIGURES 250, 251 )
Paranaphoidea Girault, 1913 View in CoL [165]: 115. Type species: Paranaphoidea egregia Girault, 1913 View in CoL , by original designation. Idiocentrus Gahan, 1927: 36 View in CoL . Type species: Idiocentrus mirus Gahan, 1927 View in CoL , by original designation. Synonymy by Lin et al.,
2007: 43.
Diagnosis. Face with subantennal sulcus ventral to each torulus; toruli about their own height from transverse trabecula; occiput with curved transoccipital sulcus extending from eye to eye dorsal to foramen ( Figs 247 View FIGURES 247–249 , 251 View FIGURES 250, 251 ); mandibles with 3 blunt teeth, crossing when closed; funicle 6-segmented, clava 3-segmented; gaster with ovipositor extending anteriorly in narrow gastral sac ventral to mesosoma as far as or slightly anterior to head ( Figs 247 View FIGURES 247–249 , 251 View FIGURES 250, 251 ).
Remarks. Paranaphoidea is represented only by P. ( Idiocentrus ) in the Neotropical region; no species of P. ( Paranaphoidea ), which have a 2-segmented clava, have yet been recorded from the region. The genus belongs to the group of genera with 2- or 3-segmented clava in females. Paranaphoidea is the only genus in the group with the ovipositor extending anteriorly ventral to the mesosoma. The slide-mounted specimen photographed is from New Zealand because only a single point-mounted specimen representing the genus in the Neotropical region (from Uruguay) is in the CNC.
Neotropical hosts. Unknown.
Distribution. No species is described from the Neotropical region. Only two specimens are known, one (USNM) from Chile ( Yoshimoto 1990, as Idiocentrus ) and one from Uruguay (CNC).
