See Gibson (2003) or Noyes (2014). Graham (1969: 37) provided features in a key to differentiate both sexes of Pannoniella from Notanisus, but Bouček (1991: 204) synonymized Pannoniella and Amarisca under Notanisus . Antsingia Risbec (1952) was synonymized under Notanisus by Rasplus in Bouček (1991), and Gibson (2003) synonymized Anacallocleonymus Yang (1996) .</p><p>Recognition. Gibson (2003) provided keys to the tribes of Cleonyminae and the five world genera of Cleonymini— Callocleonymus Masi, Cleonymus Latreille, Dasycleonymus Gibson, Notanisus and Zolotarewskya Risbec. He stated that the petiole is at least subquadrate in Notanisus, but this description is inexact for N. sexramosus and N. clavatus Bouček, in which the body of the petiole is distinct and quadrangular but transverse (Figs 8, 14) (Bouček 1961, fig. 1). The key of Bouček and Rasplus (1991) readily differentiates Notanisus from the two other genera of Cleonymini in the Palaearctic region, Callocleonymus and Cleonymus, though not all species of the genera in other regions. The presence of N. kansensis in North America also makes correct keying of Notanisus difficult using Bouček and Heydon (1997). Females will not key correctly through couplet 55 because of their very short postmarginal vein (Figs 35, 36) and the absence of complete notauli (Fig. 33). Macropterous females of N. sexramosus have the postmarginal vein about 1.1× the length of the stigmal vein (Fig. 7), but because of the absence of complete notauli will also key through the second half of couplet 55 to couplet 154. They will then key to couplet 170 where they will not key further because of the mixture of features listed in each half of the couplet. However, females of Notanisus are distinguished easily from other keyed genera by the apical funicular being produced into at least a short projection below the base of the clava in combination with the clava either being tapered apically into a curved, somewhat finger-like projection (Figs 6, 19, 27, 43) or with a terminal, setose, spiniform projection (Figs 31, 59, 68, 83). If specimens are taken through the first half of couplet 55 to couplet 62, only one feature given, pronotum longer than mesoscutum, differentiates both sexes of Notanisus from Cleonymus . A second feature, bare versus setose eyes, differentiates only females of the two genera in North America (but not all world species), whereas the female feature given is valid only for brachypterous females of N. sexramosus . Males of N. sexramosus are distinguished by their ramose flagellum, the basal six funiculars being anelliform but each with an extremely long ramus (Fig. 10). Males of N. kansensis likely also have a ramose flagellum (but see further below).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D4478723FF8BD16F299DAB70FEB9FC7E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Head in lateral view (Fig. 1) slightly angulate at level slightly less than half distance between torulus and anterior ocellus, and in frontal view (Fig. 3) distinctly differentiated into face and frontovertex by sculpture and depending on angle of light color at level of angulation: face green and strongly reticulate with smaller reticulations above level of toruli than laterally on gena; frontovertex dark bluish with some coppery to violaceous lusters under some angles of light, mostly along inner orbits, and with larger but shallower, more isodiametric meshlike reticulation than on face; in dorsal view (Fig. 2) OOL 2.4–3.4× maximum posterior ocellar diameter. Antenna (Fig. 6) with scape yellowish-orange except extreme apex dark dorsally, pedicel and flagellum uniformly dark; fl1 transverse, anelliform, but all funiculars slightly longer than wide and increasing slightly in width toward apical funicular; apical funicular ventrally protruding as short v-shaped angulation extending over base of clava (Fig. 6, inset); clava with slender, terminal, setose, spiniform process. Mandibles tridentate with three similar teeth.</p><p>Pronotum (Figs 2, 4) dark with slight greenish luster except usually with more or less triangular violaceous to purple region posterolaterally (Fig. 4); meshlike reticulate with collar uniformly low convex, not differentiated posterolaterally. Mesoscutum (Figs 2, 4) similarly colored and uniformly reticulate as pronotal collar, but variably broadly blue to purple or reddish-violaceous posteriorly along transscutal articulation and more extensively on lateral lobes, the lateral lobes sometimes with some coppery luster under some angles of light; scutellar-axillar complex (Fig. 5) dark with slight greenish luster, axillae almost completely obliquely angled, the dorsal surface reticulate and posteriorly oblique surface coriaceous, and scutellum convex (Figs 1, 4), reticulate-rugose to punctate-rugose (Fig. 5). Tegula brown to yellowish. Macropterous (Figs 1, 7) or brachypterous (Figs 2, 4, 5). Macropterous individual with fore wing (Fig. 7) entirely, uniformly setose beyond level of base of marginal vein, including adjacent to marginal vein and apically beyond stigmal vein; costal cell narrow, with inconspicuous pale setae along most of ventral length; stigmal and postmarginal veins conspicuously long, marginal vein only about 3.2× and about 2.4× length of stigmal and postmarginal veins, respectively; disc brownish-infuscate with dark brown setae behind venation except for slightly separated anterior and posterior hyaline spots with white setae, the anterior spot occupying more than half length of marginal vein and much nearer to stigmal vein than base of marginal vein; marginal fringe entire and distinct. Brachypterous individual with wings (Fig. 5) extending only to about level of posterior margin of scutellum; fore wing variably distinctly truncate to obliquely truncate, without marginal fringe except sometimes for a few setae apically and usually narrowly setose and more brownish apically, with very slender costal cell and comparatively thick submarginal vein extending to wing margin apically, the submarginal vein with a few setae apically and sometimes slightly expanded, but without differentiated marginal, stigmal and postmarginal veins; hind wing lanceolate with sinuate, setose vein along anterior margin extending to acutely angled apex with much longer seta. Prepectus bare. Mesopleuron bare along posterior margin (Fig. 4). Metapleuron (Fig. 4) bare, variably extensively reticulate ventrally, but smooth and shiny or at most with obscure, effaced meshlike sculpture dorsally. Legs (Figs 1, 2) with at least pro- and sometimes mesocoxae entirely, and metacoxa ventroapically similarly pale as scape and most of femora, but femora at least dorsoapically and at least meso- and metatibiae dark brown; protarsus darker brown apically than basally, but at least basitarsi of middle and hind legs and sometimes up to subsequent two tarsomeres whitish or at least distinctly paler than subsequent darker brown tarsomeres. Propodeum (Fig. 8) green to bluish-green at least anteriorly mesal to spiracles, but variably extensively blue or purple to reddish-violaceous posteriorly and on callus anterolateral to spiracles, though admarginal strip also green to blue; propodeal panels completely reticulate except for crenulate furrow along anterior margin and median carina extending at most two-thirds distance to admarginal strip; callus smooth and shiny or at least more finely coriaceous anterolateral to than posterior of spiracle.</p><p>Petiole (Fig. 8) similarly dark as gaster, body transverse, finely sculptured dorsally and uniformly sclerotized ventrally. Gaster (Figs 1, 2) uniformly dark brown except basally usually with variably distinct green to bluish luster under some angles of light; presyntergal tergites isodiametric meshlike coriaceous except smoother along extreme posterior margins and basal two tergites less distinctly sculptured, with Gt2 strongly transverse, much shorter than other tergites, and Gt4 the largest tergite (Fig. 2).</p><p>MALE (Fig. 11). Length = 1.7–2.2 mm. Similar in color to female except head (Figs 9, 10) and mesosoma (Fig. 12) more uniformly dark with slight metallic green to coppery lusters, the frontovertex often with slight bluish luster, but mesosoma without patterning as described for female; legs (Fig. 11) with all coxae, femora and tibiae dark similar to mesosoma; fore wing (Fig. 13) hyaline or at most with only slight brownish infuscation. Setation similar to female, including bare prepectus, except as follows: head, including eye, and thorax and gaster dorsally much more conspicuously setose; fore wing with costal cell much broader and setose dorsally and ventrally, and basal cell also setose. Structure similar to female except as follows: petiole body smooth and shiny dorsally (Fig. 14) and ventrally quite broadly membranous mediolongitudinally over at least anterior half (Fig. 15); antenna (Fig. 10) 12-segmented with ramose flagellum, fl1 strongly transverse (anelliform), basal six funiculars (fl2–fl7) also anelliform but with long ramus uniformly covered with brown setae similar to remaining flagellum, and fl8 at least about 3.8× as long as similarly long fl9 and fl10. Sculpture similar to female except median carina of propodeum absent to entire (Fig. 12).</p><p>Hosts. Tetramesa calamagrostidis (Schlechtendal) ( Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae) developing in stems of reed grass, Calamagrostis sp. ( Poaceae) (Bouček 1958).</p><p>Remarks. Although not an oulmesiensis -group species, females of N. sexramosus usually have posterolateral regions of the pronotum differentiated by color, though not sculpture. Mitroiu and Andriescu (2008) did not have males of N. clavatus, but the CNC has four males from Iran * identified as this species by Z. Bouček in 1989 as well as males from Croatia (8 CNC) and Greece (2 CNC, 1 BMNH) that appear to be the same species. Similar to conspecific females and males of N. sexramosus, the transverse petiolar body is dorsally smooth and shiny, and ventrally incompletely sclerotized mediolongitudinally (cf. Figs 14, 15). Males of N. versicolor have a quadrate to slightly longer than wide petiolar body that usually is quite distinctly sculptured dorsally (Mitroiu and Andriescu 2008, fig. 12), but which is at least uniformly sclerotized, tube-like. Unlike males of N. sexramosus but like those of N. versicolor, males of N. clavatus have only five flagellar rami.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D4478723FF88D168299DA819FC00F973	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Both sexes. Fore wing (Figs 20, 25, 27, 36, 44, 50, 60, 69, 76, 84) with stigmal and postmarginal veins both very short, the marginal vein about 6–8× stigmal vein length; bare basad level of parastigma; costal cell slender, bare dorsally but ventrally with variable number of inconspicuous setae within about basal third (Figs 25, 36, 50, 60, 69, 76, 84) to half (Fig. 27) and only very rarely with 1 or 2 setae within about apical third. Female. Antenna with clava either tapered apically into somewhat curved, finger-like projection (Figs 6, 19, 28, 43) or with a more spiniform, setose terminal process (Figs 31, 59, 68, 83), but at least preclaval funicular ventrally extended as process under clava for most of length excluding terminal process. Eye at most very sparsely and inconspicuously setose. Mesoscutum anteriorly between incomplete notauli similarly densely sculptured as pronotum dorsomedially, more minutely punctate-reticulate compared to obviously larger mesh-like reticulation posteriorly. Pronotum (except N. gracilis) with variably developed smoother, shinier, and usually differently colored regions posterolaterally (Figs 23, 33, 38, 55, 63, 80), sometimes differentiating distinct “shoulder-like” angulations. Axilla not uniformly sculptured, variably broadly reticulate anterodorsally but with obliquely angled posterior surface much more finely sculptured to smooth and shiny (Figs 22, 40, 57, 65, 81). Fore wing disc usually comparatively sparsely setose (except N. gracilis, Fig. 27), and dorsally usually with variably distinct, elongate bare region beyond level of stigmal vein (Figs 26, 45, 61, 70, 85) (ventral surface of region always with setae and dorsal surface sometimes with one or two setae in region, e.g. Figs 61, 85) and often with obviously shorter, less conspicuous setae posterior of cubital fold and/or distally (Figs 25, 45, 70, 85); with variably developed infuscate region posterior to venation, but without well delineated anterior and posterior hyaline spots behind marginal vein. Male. Antenna 11-segmented, either ramose (Fig. 75) or pedicellate (Fig. 49).</p><p>Remarks. Of the above diagnostic features, the only one shared by all members of the oulmesiensis group and by no other species of Notanisus is conspicuously reduced stigmal and postmarginal veins in both sexes. Based on the description and images of N. gracilis, females of this species differ from other oulmesiensis -group females in at least three features, the absence of posterolaterally differentiated regions on the pronotum, a ventrally more extensively setose costal cell (Fig. 27), and a uniformly setose fore wing disc (Fig. 27). These features could indicate N. gracilis is the basal lineage of the oulmesiensis -group. Alternatively, the reduced stigmal and postmarginal veins of N. gracilis could represent an independent convergence rather than a putative synapomorphy supporting common ancestry with other oulmesiensis -group species.</p><p>The only previously described species of Notanisus from Africa are N. cyaneus (Risbec, 1952) and N. sylvaticus (Risbec, 1952) . Although I did not examine type material of these two species, they are not members of the oulmesiensis group because the marginal vein is described as three times as long as the postmarginal vein in N. cyaneus and twice the length of the stigmal vein in N. sylvaticus . Similarly, the stigmal vein is illustrated and/or described as comparatively long in the three described species from the Australasian region (Bouček 1988, fig. 405) and N. grandis (Senatos 1996, fig. 1).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D4478723FF8FD16B299DAB15FDF1FB57	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Unknown.</p><p>Host. Unknown.</p><p>Remarks. Minimally, colour of the petiole, structure of the antennal clava (Fig. 28), and a distinctively short, transverse-bandlike Gt2 (Yang 1996, fig. 144) are shared between N. brevipetiolus, N. longipetiolus and N. gracilis . However, the latter feature is also shared with N. kansensis and N. oulmesiensis within the oulmesiensis -group, and the total number of features that females of the three species share is uncertain because the holotype of N. gracilis was not studied for comparison. Females of N. brevipetiolus and N. longipetiolus are most easily separated from each other by relative length of the petiole (cf. Figs 18, 42) and gastral color pattern (cf. Figs 16, 17, 37). Additional females are needed to determine whether the apparently less extensively setose posterior margin of the mesopleuron (cf. Figs 24, 41) is an additional differential feature for N. brevipetiolus . Among observed Notanisus, setae along the posterior margin of the mesopleuron is unique to females of N. brevipetiolus and N. longipetiolus . Such setae are also possessed by many species of Cleonymus, but not observed Callocleonymus . Males of N. brevipetiolus are unknown, but based on presumed relationships with N. longipetiolus they likely have a pedicellate flagellum, the metapleuron partly setose (similar to females) but the posterior margin of the mesopleuron bare, and the pronotum entirely reticulate, though possibly with a difference in color differentiating posterolateral regions.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D4478723FF8DD167299DA91CFA07FCCE	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Unknown.</p><p>Host. Unknown.</p><p>Remarks. The only known female of N. kansensis is one of the smallest oulmesiensis -group females examined, slightly less than 2 mm in length. It differs from N. oulmesiensis females most conspicuously in having a single, elongate-oval infuscate region behind the venation (Fig. 36) and only a single seta dorsally on the metacoxa (Figs 32, 34), but also in having only a single seta ventrobasally within the costal cell and the gena near the malar sulcus reddish-violaceous with subeffaced sculpture rather than similarly green and distinctly sculptured as the lower face. Most females of N. oulmesiensis examined are larger and have the infuscate region behind the venation quite obviously interrupted anteriorly by a hyaline region near the base of the marginal vein (Fig. 60) as well as having a patch of several setae dorsally on the metacoxa (Figs 66, 67) and more numerous setae ventrobasally within the costal cell. However, a female from Greece (NMPC) that is the same size as the N. kansensis holotype has only two dorsal metacoxal setae and the fore wing infuscate region less conspicuously interrupted than for larger females, which suggests that these two features could be correlated with size. Some females also have only 2 setae ventrobasally in the costal cell, demonstrating infraspecific variation also in this feature. However, observed females of N. oulmesiensis, including smaller ones, have the lower face and gena uniformly sculptured and similarly green to reddish-violaceous. The unique holotype of N. kansensis also has a longer OOL and more finely sculptured frontovertex than examined N. oulmesiensis, though smaller females have a longer OOL and more finely sculptured frontovertex than larger females, again indicating these two features are size correlated. Based on all observed differences I describe the female collected in Nebraska as a new species, but additional specimens and molecular studies are required to more confidently evaluate morphological variation and assess its status relative to N. oulmesiensis . Definitive resolution of its species status is important to answer the questions of how or why there is a species of Notanisus in Nebraska. Notanisus has been considered to be strictly an Old World genus, not native to either the Nearctic or Neotropical regions. The presence of N. sexramosus in eastern, coastal states of USA is readily explained by one or more relatively recent accidental introductions prior to 1982. Accidental introduction into a mid-western state such as Kansas might be considered less likely.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D4478723FF86D163299DACB1FA94FC5B	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Macropterous; fore wing (Fig. 60) marginal vein about 6.0–7.2× length of stigmal vein; apex of postmarginal vein extending to or slightly beyond apex of uncus; uncus (Fig. 61) diverging from stigmal vein at or near apex so as to at most differentiate small, rounded stigma posterior to uncus, and apex separated from posterior margin of postmarginal vein by distance greater than width of postmarginal vein but less than maximum height of stigma plus uncus; costal cell ventrally with 2–9 setae within about basal third and rarely with 1 or 2 setae within about apical third; disc (Fig. 60) with distinct brownish region behind venation except narrowly hyaline behind marginal vein mesally, with hyaline band within basal half of marginal vein extended posteriorly for at least half distance to medial fold as variably conspicuous tapered hyaline region, and with cubital fold and often membrane behind cubital fold variably extensively similarly or lighter brown, and with distinct brown setae, the setae at most only slightly shorter in hyaline regions, except for narrow bare band behind parastigma and about basal half of marginal vein, but dorsally without distinct bare band beyond stigmal vein (Fig. 61); marginal fringe present except anteroapically beyond postmarginal vein (Fig. 61).

Unknown.</p><p>Hosts. Type material was reared originally from the wood of cherry, likely Prunus avium (L.) ( Rosaceae), infested with Scolytus rugulosus (Mueller) (= Scolytus mediterraneus (Eggers)) ( Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) and Anthaxia sp. ( Coleoptera: Buprestidae).</p><p>Remarks. The original description includes line drawings of the female antenna and fore wing (Deluchhi 1962, figs 2, 3), and states that the species was described from the holotype and eight paratypes, of which Baur (2001) located all but one paratype. I examined four paratypes, all of which are covered with particulate matter and incomplete to varying extents. The gaster was missing from three and only two had one complete antenna each.</p><p>Although not given as part of the description, females of N. oulmesiensis vary in how compressed the head and mesosoma appear, some female having these quite conspicuously compressed such that the dorsal surface of the mesosoma is almost flat (Figs 53, 56). Specific status and putative features differentiating females from those of N. kansensis are discussed under the latter species. Mitroiu and Andriescu (2008) noted that of the species with associated males, N. versicolor and N. sexramosus, males were much more common than females. It therefore seems unusual that males are unrecognized for such a relatively commonly collected species as N. oulmesiensis . Although at least some of the shared features listed in couplet two of the key likely represent symplesiomorphies, several suggest N. oulmesiensis (and N. kansensis) is more closely related to N. yemenensis and N. vanharteni than to N. brevipetiolus and N. longipetiolus . Based on this assumed relationship, the unknown males of N. oulmesiensis therefore more likely have a ramose than a pedicellate flagellum. However, if with another type of flagellar structure they may not be readily associated with females or recognized as Notanisus males.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D4478723FF98D179299DAD8AFB18FF6B	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Unknown.</p><p>Remarks. Notanisus vanharteni and N. yemenensis comprise a species pair from the Arabian Peninsula that are more similar to N. kansensis and N. oulmesiensis than the Sub-Saharan African species (see under latter species). Females are quite similar, but the unique female of N. yemenensis differs conspicuously from that of N. vanharteni in head and mesosomal color, structure and sculpture of the differentiated posterolateral region of the pronotum, sculpture pattern of the median sculptured region of the propodeum, and structure of the stigmal vein. Additional females are required to evaluate variation and which features are truly differential. Distinct color, structural or color features do not appear to distinguish males of the two species and for this reason a separate description or images of the single N. yemenensis male is not given.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D4478723FF9FD17B299DACB1FC09F806	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
