Males of Paranastatus verticalis are differentiated by the following combination of features: vertex granulate; mandible tridentate; in dorsal view occipital margin deeply excavate; colouration darker than that of females.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Islands of Fiji, Tonga, Western Samoa (Noyes 2015).</p><p>Biology.</p><p>Parasitoids of Graeffea crouanii eggs.</p><p>Variation.</p><p>The two specimens collected in 2004 differ in several features compared to the type series described by Eady (1956). The specimen from Taveuni Island has a body length of 2.85 mm, whereas all specimens in the type series range from 2.4-2.5mm. Unfortunately, an accurate measurement of body length was not possible in the specimen from Vanua Levu because the body is contorted. The scutellar-axillar complex in the new material is dark black-brown (Fig. 18) not light orange-brown (Fig. 16), and the legs are darker than in the type series (Fig. 17). Other slight variations in colour include: temple green-purple laterally, not blue-purple; lower face metallic blue-green, not coppery-green; and pronotum purple-blue dorsally, not purple-coppery. The new material has gastral tergite 1 white, tergite 6 light orange-brown, and remaining tergites dark brown, not gastral tergite 1 white and remaining tergites light brown, or gastral tergite 1 white, tergites 2 and 3 dark brown, and remaining tergites grading to light brown at gastral apex.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/142CA74443E5FCFF145C17940B70B67B	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
