Urogaster brasiliensis Ashmead, 1908 nomen nudum

Urogaster brasiliensis Ashmead, 1908 (in Rocha 1908: 70). Rocha (1918: 21, nomen nudum, checklist; 1950: 290, checklist, biology).

Apanteles brasiliensis (Ashmead, 1908) : Silva (1973: 109, checklist, combination, biology).

Remarks. The genus Urogaster Ashmead, 1898 was synonymized under Apanteles Foerster, 1863 by Viereck (1914). However, the combination Apanteles brasiliensis only appears in Silva (1973). Urogaster is no longer available, and besides Apanteles , other species described by Ashmead within Urogaster were later transferred to Alphomelon Mason, 1981 , Dolichogenidea Viereck, 1911 , Hypomicrogaster Ashmead, 1898 , and Rhygoplitis Mason, 1981 ( Fernandez-Triana et al. 2020), making it impossible to assign U. brasiliensis to any available genus. The only information given by Rocha (1950) about this species is that it is associated with larvae of Pieridae and other lepidopteran larvae.

Ichneumonidae
