Colocharis Heraty 2002

Colocharis Heraty, 2002:121 ‒123. Type species: Colocharis elongata Heraty, 2002, original designation.

Diagnosis. Colocharis is differentiated from the most related genera by having short blunt spines, each spine not

more than 4× as long as broad and widely separated basally, a distinct supraclypeal area demarked by a crenulate sulcus laterally, maxillary palpi 2-segmented and long, labial palpi absent or rarely present as a single minute palpomere, a circular propodeal spiracle (without an emarginate margin), and the ovipositor sheath extending beyond the apex of the gaster. The flagellum of the female has only 6 segments and is weakly serrate basally with basal flagellomere 7‒8× as long as its basal width. The flagellum of the male has 8 segments, with a short basal flagellomere and long thin funicular branches that are much longer than the height of the head.
