Abstract

Introduction: Species of Mesochorus are found worldwide and members of this genus are primarily hyperparasitoids of Ichneumonoidea and Tachinidae. Objectives: To describe species of Costa Rican Mesochorus reared from caterpillars and to a lesser extent Malaise-trapped. Methods: The species are diagnosed by COI mtDNA barcodes, morphological inspection, and host data. A suite of images and host data (plant, caterpillar, and primary parasitoid) are provided for each species. Results: A total of 158 new species of Mesochorus. Sharkey is the taxonomic authority for all. Conclusions: This demonstrates a practical application of DNA barcoding that can be applied to the masses of undescribed neotropical insect species in hyperdiverse groups.

对哥斯达黎加瓜纳卡斯特保护区的 Mesochorus Gravenhorst, 1829（膜翅目：Ichneumonidae: Mesochorinae）进行简约修订，包括 158 个新种和 129 个种的寄主记录

简介:Mesochorus属分布于世界各地，主要为姬蚊科和速蚊科的超寄生物。& # x0D;目的:描述哥斯达黎加中音合唱的种类，这些中音合唱是由毛虫饲养的，在较小程度上是由马拉斯诱捕的。& # x0D;方法:采用COI mtDNA条形码、形态检查和宿主资料诊断。为每个物种提供了一套图像和宿主数据(植物、毛虫和初级寄生蜂)。结果:共发现中曲属158新种。夏基是所有人的分类学权威。& # x0D;结论:这证明了DNA条形码的实际应用，可以应用于大量未描述的新热带昆虫物种的高多样性群体。
