- The amazonica species-group (Figs. 1 b, 1 e, 1 h) Diagnosis. The amazonica species-group can be distinguished from all other New and Old world species-groups of Xanthopimpla by the combination of the following characters: 1) occipital carina developed into a thin, high flange (Fig. 1 b); 2) propodeal spiracle joined to the pleural carina by a short carina (Fig. 1 e); and 3) first tergite with lateromedian carinae anteriorly highly elevated (Fig. 1 h). At least the first two characters seem to be unique to the amazonica species-group. Remarks. The species of the group are restricted to South America and have been found mainly in the vast Amazonian lowland rainforest area (Fig. 8). All species are rare and we have only seen a few specimens.
