Trichogramma jalmirezi Zucchi, 1988 Diagnosis. Flagelliform setae short with apex tapering abruptly, dorsal lamina with conspicuous basal constriction, posterior extension of dorsal lamina extending beyond apex of volsellae, long and conspicuous intervolsellar process, not extending up to volsellae. Comments. Trichogramma jalmirezi most closely resembles T. distinctum and T. galloi. The most conspicuous character to separate T. jalmirezi from the other two species is the larger constriction in the dorsal lamina. Additionally, it differs by the straight sides of the dorsal lamina (concave in T. distinctum), the posterior extension of the dorsal lamina tapering gradually, and the intervolsellar process not extending to the level of the volsellae (extending beyond the volsellae level in T. galloi). Only the type material is known. Type repository. ESALQ. Type locality. Macaé, RJ. Distribution in South America. Brazil. Host. Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius, 1794) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) (sugarcane borer).
