摘要
A review of the braconid genus Spathius in North America and comments on several species in the biological control of the Emerald ash borer, Agrilus planipennis Fair., are presented. Separate keys to females and males, descriptions, distributions, and biologies are given for the 19 species occurring in North America. One new species, Spathius leiopleuron Marsh and Strazanac, n. sp., is described and six new synonymies are proposed as follows: S. floridanus Ashmead (=S. simillimus Ashmead, n. syn.); S. laflammei Provancher (=S. benefactor Matthews, n. syn.); S. rubidus (Rossi) (=S. aphenges Matthews, n. syn.); S. sequoiae Ashmead (=S. canadensis Ashmead, n. syn., S. tomoci Ashmead, n. syn., and S. claripennis Ashmead, n. syn.).
