Abstract: | Types have been examined of the aphelinid genusDirphys Howard (Type species,Mesidia mexicana Howard). It is found to be closely related toEncarsia Förster and related coccophagine genera. Hence its earlier placement in the subfamilyAphelininae sensu De Santis orAphytinae Jasnosh is considered untenable and, consequently, it is transferred to subfamilyCoccophaginae sensu De Santis. |
