Abstract

A new species Aleiodes (Hemigyroneuron) dangerlingi n. sp. (Hymenoptera: Bra­conidae: Rogadinae) from Australia (New South Wales) is described, illust­rated and distinguished from other members of the subgenus. It is the second species of the subgenus known from Australia to date, and on the basis of its mor­phology is most closely related to Aleiodes (H.) ellingsenae Butcher & Quicke from Tasmania. The previously unknown female of A. (H.) glandularis Butcher & Quicke from South Africa is also briefly described and illustrated.
