Karimi leg.</p><p>Remarks. This species runs to couplet 6 in Aguiar et al. (2010)’s key of the bimaculate species of this genus. Our examined specimen resembles those described by Aguiar et al. (2010) from the south and western Iran. It is characterized by its color pattern of the propodeum (Fig. 3D), petiole and the first tergite (Figs 3H–I), the strongly compressed head (Fig. 3B), and mesosoma. It has a body length 11.4mm (including ovipositor); ovipositor length 4.5 mm, fore wing length 4.7 mm; body brown to light brown, with dark brown mesosoma (Figs 3C–D); with distinct whitish marks in the following parts: clypeus; fore and mid tibia basally and apically; basitarsus of mid leg basally; on hind leg, coxa distally, femur distally and both ventral teeth, compressed part of tibia apically, basitarsus entirely; propodeum dorso-apically; petiole basally and apically; T4 with two large separated pale yellow spots. Detailed sculpture was described by Aguiar et al. (2010).</p><p>Distribution. Fars, Lorestan (Aguiar et al., 2010), and West-Azarbaijan provinces (present study).</p><p>Ecology. The host of this species is unknown. Based on the collecting date in this study (8.IX.2019) together with available data in Fars (27.IV.2006 and 15.IX.2007) and Lorestan provinces (2.V.2007) (Aguiar et al., 2010), it seems likely be indicated that this species has two distinct flight periods in Iran. It is important to consider that these localities have different altitudes and biogeographical conditions but the common point of these collection localities is Zagros Mountains ranges that our collection site is located in the northern border, Fars and Lorestan provinces in the southern border .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03AFA27AFFFBB175FF3ED31837DEFABC	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Karimi leg.</p><p>Remarks. This species can be separated from F. prousti by a distinctly smaller white spot of metasoma (Fig. 5J) (viz. larger in F. prousti (Fig. 3E)); uniformly colored hind tibia (Fig. 5G) (viz. with a distinct median white band in F. prousti (Fig. 3B, 3C)); uniformly colored petiole (Fig. 5E) (viz. with distinct basal and distal white bands in F. prousti (Fig. 3D)).</p><p>Aguiar et al. (2010) compared it with F. bisignatus Aguiar &amp; Jennings, 2010; F. hesperophagus Aguiar, 2010; and F. crispus Aguiar, 2010 . It can be distinguished from other species by the following relevant characters: globular head (Fig. 5B); pronotum transversely strigate with microreticulate between them (Fig. 5C); smooth and polished interfoveolar area; vein 1Cu nearly as long as cross vein 1cu-a, vein 1-1A apically straight and vein 2-1A spectral on fore wing (Fig. 5F); unicolorous propodeum (Fig. 5D); two small white spots on T4 widely separated (Fig. 5J).</p><p>Distribution. Central Asian countries including Turkmenistan, Tajikistan and Afghanistan (Semenov, 1891; Tobias, 1988) and Turkey (Yildirim &amp; Kolarov, 2006). New record for Iran (West-Azarbaijan province).</p><p>Ecology. The current collecting date (8.IX.2019) of this species and correspondence in Turkmenistan (11. VI.[18]88) (Aguiar et al., 2010), may indicate at least a long period of adult flight. More sampling needs to reveal the precise flight period of this species but this group of parasitic wasps are rarely collected .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03AFA27AFFFDB173FF3ED0583392FBFD	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
