Enicospilus mauritii (Saussure, 1892)

(Fig. 15 h)

Amesospilus rectecarinatus Enderlein, 1921: 20; Henicospilus leionotus longicornis Morley, 1912a: 173; Ophion mauritii Sau-

ssure, 1892: pl. 14

Diagnosis. Species with inter-ocellar area black, Rs+2r distinctly sinuate and no central sclerite on fore wing (Fig. 13 h).

Description. Gauld & Mitchell (1978).

Host records. Chilo sacchariphagus ( Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), Tetramoera schistaceana ( Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), Sesamia nonagrioides, S. calamistis and Mythimna loreyi ( Lepidoptera: Noctuidae).

Comments. One of the examined specimens (MHNSD 2809) is much darker than the normal form. The meso- and metasoma show large testaceous to black markings, with the propodeum and tergites I-II uniformly black. It otherwise totally agrees with the description of Gauld & Mitchell (1978). We consider it to be a melanic form of E. mauritii, perhaps collected at high altitude.

Distribution records. Reunion (Bordage 1914). Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius, Seychelles and Zambia (Gauld & Mitchell 1978).
