description
Redescription. FEMALE (holotypes of Lymaenon arduennae, L. paludis and L. rhacodes, and non-type specimens from the Palaearctic region). Body length 600 – 1000 µm (dry-mounted specimens). Body generally brown to dark brown except mesosoma sometimes light brown along edges of midlobe of mesoscutum and scutellum in teneral adults, gaster mostly yellow-brown or light brown (particularly basally) to brown; appendages light brown to brown. Antenna (Figs 144, 145) with radicle 3.0 – 3.8 × as long as wide, 0.31 – 0.38 × total length of scape, rest of scape 3.2 – 3.8 × as long as wide, faintly striate; pedicel longer than F 1; F 1 – F 4 subequal in length, shorter than following funicle segments; F 5, F 7, and F 8 subequal in length, F 6 a little shorter; F 1 – F 4 without mps, typically mps on F 5 (1), F 7 (2), and F 8 (2) but rarely F 5 with 2 mps or sometimes (often in small specimens) without mps, F 6 with 1 mps in a few, mostly large specimens (such as the holotype of Lymaenon rhacodes), and occasionally F 7 with just 1 mps; clava with 10 mps (4 in the middle and 6 subapical), 2.9 – 4.1 × as long as wide, from a little shorter to a little longer than combined length of F 6 – F 8. Mesosoma (Fig. 146). Propodeum (Fig. 147) with faint submedian lines, the distance between them shorter anteriorly than posteriorly. Fore wing (Figs 148, 150) 2.8 – 4.1 × as long as wide; longest marginal seta 0.28 – 0.52 × maximum wing width. Fore wing disc almost hyaline (with a slight, uniform brownish tinge), almost bare behind submarginal vein except for a few setae behind its apex, more or less densely setose behind marginal vein and densely setose elsewhere. Hind wing (Figs 149, 150) 17 – 24 × as long as wide; disc setose and slightly infumate; longest marginal seta 2.3 – 4.0 × maximum wing width. Metasoma (Fig. 146) a little longer than mesosoma. Petiole 1.6 – 2.1 × as wide as long. Ovipositor occupying 0.6 – 0.8 × length of gaster, not or barely exserted beyond its apex; ovipositor length: mesotibia length ratio 0.9 – 1.8: 1. MALE (non-type specimens from the Palaearctic region). Body length 600 – 800 µm (dry-mounted specimens). Similar to female except for normal sexually dimorphic features and the following. Antenna (Fig. 151) with scape plus radicle 2.6 – 2.7 × as long as wide, notably striate on lateral surface. Fore wing (Fig. 152) 2.8 – 3.6 × as long as wide. Genitalia as in Fig. 153.
diagnosis
Diagnosis. Gonatocerus litoralis is a highly variable and thus difficult to diagnose species recognizable by the female antenna (Figs 144, 145) typically having 1 mps on F 5 and 2 mps on F 7 and F 8 but rarely with 2 mps on F 5 or sometimes, often in small specimens, without mps on F 5 and / or just 1 mps on F 7, and without mps on F 6 (rarely with 1 mps in large specimens), and 10 mps on the clava; a narrow to broad (2.8 – 4.1 × as long as wide) fore wing (Figs 148, 150) with a relatively densely setose area on the disc between the marginal vein and the cubital row of setae thus leaving no bare area, the ovipositor not or barely exserted beyond the gastral apex; and generally brown to dark brown body except for the gaster, which is mostly light brown (particularly basally) to brown. Hosts. Aphrodes sp. (Bakkendorf 1934) [as Acocephalus sp. for Lymaenon effusi], Macrosteles sexnotatus (Fallén) (Ahlberg 1925; Nikol’skaya 1952) [as Cicadula sexnotata Fallén for G. radiculatus], Neoaliturus (Circulifer) tenellus (Baker) (Huffaker et al. 1954 [as Lymaenon “ B ”]; Bayoun et al. 2008) [as Circulifer tenellus (Baker)], and Zyginidia sohrab Zachvatkin (Fallahzadeh & Huber 2011) (Cicadellidae). Girault (1905) indicated that G. anthonomi had been supposedly bred from Anthonomus quadrigibbus Say (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) but that record was almost certainly erroneous. Also almost certainly incorrect were the records of G. brunneus (the identifications also need confirmation) from eggs of Microlarinus lypriformis (Wollaston) (Curculionidae) by Stegmaier (1973) as well as from Aphis pomi De Geer and Rhopalosiphum padi (Linnaeus) (Hemiptera: Aphididae), as listed by Peck (1963) and Thompson (1958), respectively.
discussion
Comments. Following Matthews (1986), I treat G. litoralis in the broad sense thus including specimens in which F 5 of the female antenna lacks mps (like for instance in G. texanus). However, there are also small specimens in the Palaearctic region listed below which often have relatively somewhat shorter funicle segments and lack mps on F 1 – F 7 of the female antenna (Figs 154, 156) or sometimes have 1 mps on F 7 only on one antenna in a few specimens from Mongolia, which otherwise fit G. litoralis well including the typical wings (Fig. 155). Particularly, they bear 2 mps on F 8 and 10 mps on the clava and are not conspecific with the Nearctic species G. pygmaeus because they have F 3 as short as F 2 or F 4 and have no distinct bare area between the marginal vein and the cubital row of setae on the fore wing disc. Such specimens can only tentatively be attributed to G. litoralis and perhaps should rather be regarded as an undescribed taxon within the G. litoralis complex unless they turn out to be within the broader variability range of G. litoralis than we currently recognize. Describing them as a new species, however, without having at hand results of thorough morphometric studies and biological and molecular data would be counterproductive at this time: perhaps the loss of mps on both F 5 and F 7 of the female antenna could be attributed to parasitization of eggs of smaller hosts.

Identification of other voucher material of Walker et al. (1997) is very difficult. Specimens of their Gonatocerus sp. 2 (culture # 23 - GD) fit G. litoralis in every regard except setae on the fore wing (Fig. 157) disc between the marginal vein and the cubital line of setae are somewhat sparser (yet unlike in G. (Lymaenon) sp. 1 from Iran leaving no distinct bare area) than in the typical G. litoralis, and therefore they only tentatively are identified as such also considering that their culture was uniparental.

Bayoun (insectary culture # 23 - GD on eggs of N. tenellus on sugar beet) [5 Ƥ, UCRC], of the same origin but collected only on Artemisia sp., S & R # 95 - 40 - 23. The specimens from Belgium and Germany in the H. R. Debauche collection at ISNB were misidentified by H. R. Debauche and G. Mathot as “ Lymaenon ater (Foerster) ”. From the redescription and illustrations of G. ramakrishnai in Zeya & Hayat (1995) I conclude that this Indian species might be conspecific with G. litoralis although the indicated number of mps (6, although in reality it is most likely more than that) on the clava on the holotype female does not fit that of G. litoralis (10). I examined several females of G. litoralis collected by John M. Heraty at IARI, the likely type locality of G. ramakrishnai (or in the general area of it), and they fit both the original description and Zeya & Hayat’s redescription of Subba Rao & Kaur’s species except for the fact that F 5 in these specimens bears 2 mps whereas the holotype of Lymaenon ramakrishnai bears only 1 mps on F 5 (Zeya & Hayat 1995), but that is within the known variability range of G. litoralis. However, I am reluctant to synonymize G. ramakrishnai under G. litoralis until the holotype of the former species is examined. The numerous slide-mounted voucher specimens of Lymaenon spp. “ A ” and “ B ” of the study by Huffaker et al. (1954) are stored in EMEC. Most specimens labeled by R. L. Doutt as Lymaenon “ B ” have the typical arrangement of mps on the female antenna (F 5 bearing a mps) and belong to G. litoralis but some (particularly those collected 10. i. 1955 and marked as “ Sample from cage of Lymaenon “ B ””) lack one and also have 8 mps on the clava, and are identical to the specimens of Lymaenon “ A ” (= G. kazak), thus indicating to a possible contamination of the colony at the later stages of the rearing campaign. According to Huffaker et al. (1954), both forms were imported from Spain (the culture originators were collected there by J. K. Holloway during 1952 and 1953) and then reared in the University of California, Berkeley quarantine / insectary at Albany, California on eggs of the beet leafhopper, N. tenellus [as Circulifer tenellus]. 112,455 individuals of Lymaenon “ A ” (8 sites) and 400 individuals of Lymaenon “ B ” (1 site) were released in California during 1953, and in addition also likely a good number of Lymaenon “ A ” were sent to Arizona, Idaho, and Utah (Huffaker et al. 1954). Post-release data on these parasitoids are very sketchy; Huffaker et al. (1954) only mentioned that specimens of Lymaenon “ A ” were recovered in two release sites of Fresno and Kern Counties soon after the releases but not at a later time; Clausen (1978) later stated that none of these introduced and released species became established. Difficulties in their identification probably contributed to the apparent failure of that project in the field, and as we know now G. litoralis occurs naturally in the USA; in California it was reared from eggs of N. tenellus (Bayoun et al. 2008). Girault (1911) considered G. americanus to be very close in structure to his G. anthonomi, which is synonymized here under G. litoralis based on examination of its lectotype and other, non-type, specimens identified as G. anthonomi by A. A. Girault himself and also on Girault’s descriptions (1905, 1911). Based on the habitus and other morphological features that can be observed on the poorly preserved lectotype, G. americanus is almost certainly conspecific with G. litoralis, hence its proposed synonymy under the latter. I believe that even though it is impossible to know the distribution of mps on the missing funicle segments in the lectotype of Brues’ species, which is known only from this single specimen, the synonymy is warranted. Brues’ (1907) description of the female antenna, particularly of the proportions of the funicle segments, is consistent with the female antenna of G. litoralis. From my own collecting, I found G. litoralis to be by far the most common species of G. (Lymaenon) in Illinois, USA, where diversity of this subgenus seems to be quite limited, and I expect that to be the case also in the nearby Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the type locality of G. americanus.
discussion
Originally described from the type series of 3 female and 1 male specimens, although only 1 female and 1 male, which are syntypes (the other 2 females are paratypes), were designated by Girault as “ Type ” under USNM No. 8435 (male not examined); later Girault (1911: 260) mentioned, besides the two aforementioned “ types ” of each sex (both according to him were tag-mounted), also “ 4 paratypes ” (a least two of these in fact have no type status), reared at the same time with the “ types ” (A. A. Girault deposited one of those “ paratypes ” in INHS).

NEOTROPICAL: Argentina, Bahamas, Brazil, and Chile (Triapitsyn et al. 2010). ORIENTAL *: Cambodia *, and India *. Sahad & Hirashima (1984) listed G. litoralis from Australia (most likely by mistake), but without references to any specimens or published records; Lin et al. (2007) did not include it in their list of the Australian species of Gonatocerus. This is arguably the most common and widespread Palaearctic species of Gonatocerus, so that it is just a matter of time until G. litoralis would be recorded from most if not all the European countries. Bayoun et al. (2008) reported specimens tentatively identified as G. litoralis from California, USA, and here I confirm that identification and further document its presence in the Nearctic region in addition to the records provided by Triapitsyn et al. (2010).
