First flagellomere longer than second, most flagellomeres without long setae (Figs 6, 8, 13, 20, 28, 36); clypeus moderately small, barely protruding; anterior tentorial pits moderately small, never reaching eye border; maxillary palpus slender, longer than height of head; precoxal sulcus crenulate, weakly developed and linear to wide and strongly developed (Figs 3, 10, 18, 26, 34); scutellar disc moderately convex, never with posterior spine; metanotum with midridge, never with tall flange or spine; propodeal spiracle minute and round, its diameter much shorter than distance between spiracle and anterior margin of propodeum; fore wing venation complete (Figs 6, 13, 20, 28, 36); r arising before middle of elongate, often nearly linear stigma; 3RSa approximately equal in length to 2RS; 2nd submarginal cell small, strongly narrowed distally; 1st subdiscal cell closed distally; 2CUb arising near middle of distal margin of 1st subdiscal cell, never interstitial; 1m-cu postfurcal or interstitial; hind wing 1cu-a present, often weakly developed; 1r-m slightly shorter than 1M; M+CU longer than 1M; female metasoma not strongly laterally compressed; metasomal terga smooth beyond petiole, some species (i.e., T. areolata, T. concreta Chen and Wu, T. lineata, T. punctata, T. svarog Belokobylskij) with 1 pair of grooves on basal portion of T2, and in T. dazhbog Belokobylskij basal 1/3–1/4 of T2 with sparse shallow striae; ovipositor sheath with fairly numerous, moderately long setae.</p><p>Distribution. Palaearctic, Australasian, Nearctic, Neotropical, Oriental (Yu et al. 2012).</p><p>Biology. Detailed studies have been conducted on T. punctata, a parasitoid of Drosophila, but very little is known about other species in the genus. Vet and van Alphen (1985) compared the searching behaviour of females of 32 alysiine species. They noted that T. punctata used their antennae to locate Drosophila larvae in fermenting fruit, while T. bicolor employed vibrotaxis when searching for Drosophilidae larvae in decaying plant materials and mushrooms. Carton et al. (1986), Hardy and Godfray (1990), van Lenteren (1976), and Bakker (1979) have also provided biological data for T. punctata . Tanycarpa punctata is a solitary endoparasitoid that oviposits into host larvae but remains as an egg or first instar until the host forms a puparium at which time the wasp feeds rapidly, kills the host, and emerges as an adult from the host puparium. Males from a given cohort emerge first and are polygynous, whereas females only mate once. Mating takes place soon after the female emerges, and males have elaborate courtship behaviour. This species is synovigenic, with potential lifetime fecundity of about 300 eggs.</p><p>Remarks. As noted by Wharton (2002), Tanycarpa is essentially an Alysia with an elongate stigma, making it difficult to characterize Alysia as monophyletic with respect to Tanycarpa . The gradual transition from a thickened stigma to a completely linear one has occurred repeatedly within Alysiini and can be seen most easily in Tanycarpa, Pentapleura Foerster, and several series of species currently placed in Aphaereta Foerster, Asobara Foerster and Phaenocarpa Foerster.</p><p>Three of the species treated here (i.e., T. bicolor, T. gracilicornis, and T. mitis) were previously recorded from China by Chen and Wu (1994), and T. chors is newly recorded for China.</p><p>There are three recognizable species groups within Tanycarpa; they have not been tested for monophyly. The first species group is characterized by long grooves on T2. This group is referred to here as the punctata species group and includes the previously described species T. concreta, T. chors, T. perun Belokobylskij, T. punctata, and T. svarog . Tanycarpa lineata and T. areolata are also included in this group. Members of the other two species groups lack grooves on T2 and are characterized by differences in the shape of the fore wing stigma. Tanycarpa bicolor and T. rufinotata form the bicolor species group, which is based on the broad and relatively short stigma (Fig. 6). See comments on these two species under the species treatment of T. bicolor below. All other Palaearctic species have a narrow pterostigma (Figs 13, 20, 28, 36); these are referred to here as the gracilicornis species group, which includes T. amplipennis (Foerster, 1862), T. dazhbog, T. gymnonotum, T. gracilicornis, T. gladius Chen and Wu, T. mitis, T. scabrator Chen and Wu, T. simargla Belokobylskij, T. similis, T. stribog and T. volch Belokobylskij.</p><p>Tanycarpa perun is easily separated from other members of the punctata species group based on the grooves of T2 close to one another at the base; the wide T1 (see Belokobylskij 1998: plate 80, fig. 1), with T1L:T1AW=1.20; and the propodeum almost entirely sculptured. The other species in this group have the grooves widely separated at the base, and the T1L:T1AW ratio is between 1.40–2.30. Tanycarpa perun, T. punctata and T. svarog all lack an areola on the propodeum; T. concreta has an areola with irregular ridges, and the other three species: T. areolata, T. chors, and T. lineata, all have a setose areola. Tanycarpa concreta and T. punctata are putatively closely related based on similar brownish color and the short T1, but they differ in that T1L:T1AW is 1.70 for T. concreta and 1.40 for T. punctata, T1AW:T1BW is 1.50 for T. concreta and 1.90 for T. punctata; the propodeum of T. concreta has an areola, while T. punctata lacks an areola. Tanycarpa svarog has two characters unique to the punctata species group, with T1 longitudinally rugose medially and the mesoscutal midpit small or absent. Diagnostic features for other members of this species group are noted in the species treatments below.</p><p>The gracilicornis species group is the largest such group in Tanycarpa . Tanycarpa amplipennis is the most distinctive member, with a number of unique features to the gracilicornis species group besides the longer and narrow pterostigma. Notably, the temple is densely covered with white setae apically, and the propodeum is entirely or almost entirely irregularly and densely rugose-granular. Tanycarpa scabrator is the only species from China in which the face has a medial vertical ridge. Tanycarpa volch and T. simargla are similar to one another in that the face lacks a medial ridge, and the frons is entirely densely pubescent. Tanycarpa dazhbog has the frons glabrous as do most of the species in Tanycarpa; however, the base of T2 is with sparse, shallow striae which is unique for the genus but differs from other genera with deep, more distinct striae. Tanycarpa gladius is also very distinctive because the apical three flagellomeres are moniliform, and the mesoscutal midpit is absent. Diagnostic features for other members of this species group are noted in the species treatments below.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D387D8533DBF14FF54FA52FB252575	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Antenna with 20 flagellomeres, penultimate flagellomere of ♀ thick, 2.00× longer than wide; frons almost flat, smooth, densely covered with short pubescence; T1 strongly protruding dorsally, and posterior 1/2 rugose mesally, other 1/2 smooth; T2 with 2 diverging, deep grooves basally (Fig. 7); pterostigma wider basally, gradually and evenly narrowed to apex; tarsal claw of ♀ simple and long, more or less sharply curved apically; 1st flagellomere 1.30× longer than 2nd flagellomere, 1st and 2nd flagellomere 4.00× and 3.00× longer than wide, respectively; mandible 1.60× longer than wide, apical width wider than basal width, tooth 1 obviously upcurved, smaller than tooth 2, with shallow indentation between tooth 1 and tooth 2, tooth 2 wide and pointed, with sharp incision between tooth 2 and tooth 3; notauli deep, distinctly crenulate basally, obliterated posteriorly; mesoscutal lobes moderately convex, smooth and with dense pubescence; propodeum with distinct longitudinal ridge in basal 1/3 that diverges into two transverse ridges terminating in protruding lobelike tubercles, two longitudinal ridges extend posteriorly from tubercles, forming closed areola with dense long pubescence, other part virtually glabrous (Fig. 7); T1 1.70× longer than apical width; body dark brown; flagellum brown, scape and pedicel yellow; legs yellow; body length 2.80 mm, fore wing length 3.00 mm.</p><p>Distribution. China (Ningxia); South Korea; Russia (Primor'ye Kray, Sakhalin Oblast, Yevreyskaya Oblast).</p><p>Remarks. This species is newly recorded for China. The Chinese specimen closely matches the original description in Belokobylskij (1998) except for the mandible. In the specimen from China, the mandible is expanded dorsally (i.e., 1.60× longer than wide), with the 2nd tooth 1.20× wider than long, the 1st tooth much smaller, and a shallow indentation between tooth 1 and 2. The original description in Belokobylskij (1998) indicates the mandibles are not expanded dorsally (i.e., 1.80–2.00× longer than wide), with the 1st tooth large, rounded, and clearly separated by a deep notch from the relatively long, narrow 2nd tooth.</p><p>Tanycarpa chors is one of only five species thus far recorded from China with deep basal grooves on T2. As indicated in the key above, T. chors is a much darker species than T. concreta . Tanycarpa chors appears to be most similar to T. lineata and T. areolata; all have a small and round mesoscutal midpit and T1 1.70–2.00× longer than wide. However, T. chors is more similar to T. areolata in that propodeum has a distinct longitudinal carina in the basal 1/3 (Fig. 27). Conversely, in T. lineata, the propodeum lacks a distinct longitudinal carina in the basal 1/3 (Fig. 35).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D387D8533ABF11FF54FF4BFEA9214F	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Tanycarpa gracilicornis is widespread and is morphologically similar to T. mitis and T. similis based on the filiform apical three antennal flagellomeres and presence of a mesoscutal midpit. However, T. gracilicornis has 30–40 flagellomeres, T. mitis has 24–27 flagellomeres, and T. similis has 25–29 flagellomeres. As for T. mitis and T. similis, they are separated primarily using the median longitudinal ridge of the propodeum and the fore wing 2nd submarginal cell. Tanycarpa mitis has a longitudinal ridge in the basal 1/3, and the 2nd submarginal cell longer; T. similis lacks a longitudinal ridge, and the 2nd submarginal cell is shorter. In T. gracilicornis the propodeum has a distinct longitudinal ridge in the basal 1/4–1/5, and the 2nd submarginal cell is shorter as in T. similis .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D387D8533ABF10FF54FAA8FF4E2608	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Differences between the male and female are minor. In female specimens 2CUb arises from the middle of the 1st subdiscal cell; in the male it arises below the middle of 1st subdiscal cell. In the male specimen, the 2nd submarginal cell is more slender than in the female specimen.</p><p>Tanycarpa stribog and T. gymnonotum are closest to each other morphologically in that the mesoscutum at most has sparse pubescence. The biggest differences are in T. stribog the mesoscutum has pubescence anteriorly and along the notauli lines, the propodeum has a clear longitudinal medial ridge, and T1 is short; in T. gymnonotum the mesoscutum is smooth and setiferous (Fig. 11), the propodeum lacks a clear longitudinal ridge, and T1 is longer.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03D387D8533BBF1DFF54FA13FF4C2575	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
