Pyrgaspis haloxylonomyiae Kozlov, 1967: 716 (original description).

Diagnosis.

Buhl (2009) distinguished Platygaster striativentris from P. haloxylonomyiae on the basis of shorter striae on T2 and a more pronounced point on the mesoscutellum in the latter. These characters are illustrated in Figures 21 - 22 and Figures 27 - 28, respectively.
