BF734D71F04FEC65E9E7FEE1FD07F829.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Pentapleura pumilio (Nees) and Pentapleura quadridens (Fischer) are known from the Nearctic Region in addition to P. foveolata. The forewing stigma is broader and less elongate in P. pumilio (Wharton 1980: fig. 21) and P. quadridens (Fig. 9) than in P. foveolata (Fig. 8). Additionally, the mandible is broader in P. quadridens (Fig. 10) than in P. foveolata (Fig. 5).	en	Kula, Robert R.

BF734D71F04FEC65E9E7FEE1FD07F829.taxon	discussion	Discussion. Viereck (1917) described male P. foveolata from the type locality. A body length range of “ 1.5 – 2 mm ” was indicated in the original description, suggesting it might have been based on multiple males. However, only one male specimen of this species exists in the USNM, and it bears the label “ TypeNo 66269 USNM. ” Also, a unit tray for potential syntypes does not exist in the USNM. Thus, I follow Wharton (1980) and regard the single male in the USNM as the holotype. The description in Viereck (1917) is very short, and while Wharton (1980) provided a diagnosis for Pentapleura Förster, he did not redescribe P. foveolata as indicated in Yu et al. (2005). Therefore, P. foveolata is redescribed above to provide data on morphological variation for females and males. Examination of the holotype for P. quadridens revealed intraindividual variation in the number of mandibular teeth. One mandible bears four teeth, with the additional tooth ventral to tooth 3; the other mandible bears five teeth (Fig. 10), with the additional teeth ventral to tooth 3.	en	Kula, Robert R.

BF734D71F04AEC67E9E7F8C5FBEFFE72.taxon	discussion	Discussion. The specimens of this species from MLBS were originally misinterpreted as representing an undescribed species because the ovipositor of A. (A.) salebrosa was described as “ nearly twice length of mesosoma ” in Wharton (1986). The ovipositor length: mesosoma length (OL: ML) ratios for the two MLBS specimens are 1.33 and 1.40. Also, the 2 RS length: 3 RSa length (2 RSL: 3 RSaL) ratio for A. (A.) salebrosa was reported as “ 1.16 ± 0.05 ” in Wharton (1986), but the ratios for the two MLBS specimens are 0.90 and 1.05. The author (RRK) measured the holotype and four paratype females of A. (A.) salebrosa and found that OL: ML ranged from 1.22 – 1.65 (1.24 in holotype), and 2 RSL: 3 RSaL ranged from 0.97 – 1.13 (1.13 in holotype). Likely, the quantitative ratios observed here differ from those in Wharton (1986) due to measurement error as discussed in Wharton (1980, 1986). The broad range observed here for OL: ML is also likely due to measurement error. The author (RRK) was not able to find any diagnostic difference between the MLBS specimens and the types of A. (A.) salebrosa examined; therefore, they considered specimens of A. (A.) salebrosa.	en	Kula, Robert R.

BF734D71F054EC7BE9E7FB61FA7EF804.taxon	discussion	Discussion. Coelinius wrayi fits Lepton Zetterstedt (= Coelinidea Viereck) sensu Griffiths (1964). The monophyly of subgenera recognized previously within Coelinius sensu lato is questionable except for Polemochartus Schulz (Kula 2008). Therefore, Coelinius wrayi is not formally assigned to a subgenus at this time.	en	Kula, Robert R.
