Alloxysta heptatoma Hellén, 1963: 22 . Type: deposited in MZH (examined).

Diagnosis

Alloxysta heptatoma is mainly characterized by a small closed radial cell; the presence of pronotal carinae; well-defined propodeal carinae with sharp edges; and antenna with rhinaria and club shape beginning on F5, F1 shorter than pedicel, and F1–F3 subequal in length (Fig. 2.21). There is no other known Alloxysta species closely similar to A. heptatoma .
