- Glypta cognata sp. nov. (Figs. 1 C, 2 C, 3 B, 4 C, 6 C, 7 C) Description: Female (n= 1: HT). Body length 7.5 mm. Head. Ca. 0.6 times as long as wide. Clypeus 0.7 times as long as wide, roundly convex in lateral view (Fig. 2 C). Face weakly convex medially (Fig. 2 C), 0.5 times as long as wide. Frons with a small median horn between each antennal socket, its apex relatively pointed (Figs. 1 C, 3 B). OOL 1.6 times as long as OD; POL 1.4 times as long as OD. Mandible with narrow ventral flange by basal 0.6, its base flat. MSL 1.0 times as long as BWM. Antenna with 37 flagellomeres. F 1 1.8 times as long as F 2. Mesosoma. Densely punctate, punctures on lateral lobes of mesoscutum (excluding near notaulus) separated by 0.3 –2.0 (usually ca. 0.7) times their diameter. Epomia obtuse. Lateral area of pronotum entirely punctate except for ventral area longitudinally striated. Both sides of mesoscutum near tegula weakly and obtusely produced posteriorly. Propodeum entirely densely punctate. Anterior transverse carina of propodeum absent. Lateromedian longitudinal carina of propodeum present on basal section. Lateral longitudinal carina of propodeum largely absent. Posterior transverse carina of propodeum complete. Fore wing length 6.0 mm. Fore coxa without ridge anterodorsally. Hind femur 5.5 times as long as maximum depth in lateral view. Hind TS 1 2.1 times as long as TS 2. Metasoma. T 1 –T 4 densely punctate (Figs. 6 C, 7 C). T 1 1.1 times as long as maximum width, its median dorsal carina present on ca. basal 0.5 of tergite (Fig. 6 C). T 2 0.9 times as long as maximum width. T 2 –T 4 each with moderate a pair of oblique groove (Fig. 7 C). Ovipositor sheath ca. 0.8 times as long as fore wing, 2.1 times as long as hind tibia. Colouration. Body (excluding wings and legs) black, except for: apical part of clypeus, tip of mandible, posterior margin of each metasomal tergite tinged with reddish-brown; palpi, pedicel, flagellum, membranous parts of sternites and posterior part of subgenital plate yellowish-brown; posterodorsal corner of pronotum and tegula yellow; ovipositor reddish-brown to yellowish-brown. Wings hyaline, slightly tinged with yellow; veins and pterostigma yellowish-brown except for yellow wing base. Legs (hind leg: Fig. 4 C) yellowish-brown, except for: all trochanters and all trochanters pale yellow; hind coxa blackish-brown; hind femur more or less darkened apically; subbasal band of hind tibia weakly tinged with black; apical part of hind tibia black; hind tarsus blackishbrown to black with basal yellow areas on TS 1 –TS 3 and slightly on TS 4. Basal yellow areas of TS 1 ca. 0.5 length of TS 1 and of TS 2 –TS 3 shorter than each black area. Male. Unknown. Material examined. JAPAN: [Holotype] F, Hokkaido Pref., Kami-shihoro town, Tokachi, Nukabira, 24. viii. 1981, Y. Shono leg. (NIAES) Distribution (Fig. 10). Japan (Hokkaido). Biology. Unknown. Etymology. The specific name is from the Latin “ cognata ”, which means “ similar ”. Remarks. This species resembles G. chinensis and G. lapponica but can be distinguished by the ovipositor sheath ca. 0.8 times as long as fore wing, 2.1 times as long as hind tibia (ca. 1.0 times as long as fore wing, 2.4–2.6 times as long as hind tibia in chinensis), the fore and mid coxae yellowish-brown (black in chinesis and lapponica) and the antenna yellowish-brown (black in chinensis and lapponica).
