﻿Review of species of the genus Heterospilus Haliday, 1836 (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Doryctinae) from the Korean Peninsula

﻿Abstract This article reviews the species of the genus Heterospilus Haliday from South Korea. Nine species, Heterospiluschinjuensissp. nov., H.gajwaensissp. nov., H.heulriensissp. nov., H.hyungkeunleeisp. nov., H.maseongussp. nov., H.suriensissp. nov., H taehoani sp. nov., H.weolchulsanussp. nov., and H.yeogiensissp. nov., are described as new to science. The species Heterospilusfujianensis Tang, Belokobylskij, He & Chen, 2013 is recorded for the fauna of Korea for the first time; H.ater Fischer, 1960 is synonymised under H.austriacus (Szépligeti, 1906). Heterospilusrubicola Fischer, 1960 and H.corsicus (Marshall, 1888) are excluded from the fauna of Korea. A key to all Heterospilus species known from the Korean Peninsula is compiled.


Introduction
The Doryctinae genus Heterospilus Haliday, 1836 from the tribe Heterospilini, together with Spathius Nees, 1819 (Spathiini), is one of the largest and hyperdiverse genera in the subfamily Doryctinae, including numerous undescribed yet species (Belokobylskij and Maetô 2009;Yu et al. 2016). According to the last molecular phylogenetic analy-  (Szépligeti, 1906), female, lectotype A habitus, dorsal view B head, dorsal view C basal segments of antenna D head and anterior part of mesosoma, lateral view E mesosoma, dorsal view F mesosoma, lateral view G propodeum and three basal tergites of metasoma, dorsal view edly transverse striate (entirely and densely striate in H. sicanus). As a result, this species name was recently restored as a valid species Heterospilus austriacus (Szépligeti) from the synonymy of H. sicanus (Tang et al. 2013).  (Szépligeti, 1906), female, lectotype A fore wing B hind wing C metasoma, dorsal view D metasoma, lateral view The study of the large Heterospilus material and type of specimens belonging to H. austriacus and H. ater distinctly showed significant variability in the range of the intensity of the subbasal transverse furrow and its sculpture on the third metasomal tergite, the main diagnostic character of the discussed species. As a result, Heterospilus ater  is here synonymised under H. austriacus (Szépligeti, 1906), syn. nov.
