Abstract

The genus Baryconus Foerster (= Hoploteleia Ashmead) (Scelionidae, Scelioninae) in North America is revised. A generic diagnosis and a key to species are given; the nomenclature and biology of Baryconus are discussed. Eight species are recognized in North America, six of them new to science: Baryconus albohirtus (United States), B. americanus (Canada, United States), B. bidentatus (United States), B. clypeatus (United States, Mexico), B. minutus (United States), and B. unidentatus (United States). The two previously known species, viz. B. floridanus Ashmead and B. noveboracensis (Brues) are redescribed, females being described for the first time. Biological and distributional notes on each species are included.
