New record of Hyperteles (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) species from Transcaucasia

Abstract

All three species classified in Hyperteles Förster, 1856 (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) are recorded from Georgia. Hyperteles luteus (Ratzeburg, 1848) and H. collega (Ratzeburg, 1844) are recorded from Transcaucasia and from Georgia for the first time. A diagnosis of the genus is provided to distinguish it from other genera belonging to subfamily Tetrastichinae.
