Abstract

Zele Curtis is a braconid parasitoid wasp genus within the subfamily Euphorinae (Hymenoptera, Braconidae), consisting of only 30 species worldwide. The Chinese species of the genus Zele are revised and 29 species are now recognised, including 19 species new to science: Z.aquilus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.carinatus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.confusus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.cristatus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.curvatus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.curvinervis Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.densipunctatus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.extensus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.fulgidus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.fuscatus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.impolitus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.inclinator Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.irregularis Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.petiolatus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.rugulosus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.sculpticoxis Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.shaanxiensis Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., Z.syntomus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov., and Z.vacatus Fang, van Achterberg & Chen, sp. nov. 31 barcode region sequences of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) from the genus Zele were obtained and combined with 102 sequences from BOLD. They were used to validate new species and to get an indication of similarity among species. Three species are reinstated: Zeleperonatus (Shestakov, 1940), Z.romani (Fahringer, 1929), and Z.rufulus (Thomson, 1895). In addition, an identification key for the Zele species recorded in China (plus one expected species) is provided.

中国小蜂属（膜翅目，小蜂科，大蜂科）Revision，附十九新种记述。

Zele Curtis是大戟亚科(膜翅目，大戟亚科)中一个寄生黄蜂属，在世界范围内只有30种。中国泽勒属的物种已被修订，29个物种现已被确认，包括19个新科学物种:Z。aquilus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。carinatus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。confusus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。cristatus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。curvatus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。curvinervis Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。densipunctatus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。extensus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。fulgidus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。fuscatus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chensp . nov, Z。impolitus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。inclinator Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。irregularis Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。petiolatus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。rugulosus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。sculpticoxis Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。shaanxiensis Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen, sp . nov, Z。种syntomus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen、sp . nov和Z。vacatus Fang,阿克特伯格& Chen,从Zele属获得线粒体细胞色素c氧化酶I (COI)的条形码区域序列，并与102个粗体序列结合。它们被用来验证新物种，并确定物种之间的相似性。三个物种被重新命名:Zeleperonatus (Shestakov, 1940)， Z.romani (Fahringer, 1929)和Z.rufulus (Thomson, 1895)。此外，还提供了中国记录的泽勒物种的鉴定密钥(外加一个预期的物种)。
