| Abstract: | Abstract Closterocerus cruy (Girault) is newly recorded, both from New Zealand and as a parasitoid of lepidopteran leafminers. The species is redescribed from the Girault type and from New Zealand material. Diagnostic character states are provided for the separation of C. cruy from the closely related Australian agromyzid parasitoid C. mirabilis Edwards and LaSalle. |
