New Charipinae ( Hymenoptera : Cynipoidea : Figitidae ) records from China

Abstract Charipinae material collected from different provinces of China has been studied. Twenty-one previously described species have been identified: Alloxysta arcuata, A. brevis , A. carinata , A. castanea , A. consobrina , A. fracticornis , A. leunisii , A. macrophadna , A. mullensis , A. obscurata , A. paretasmartinezi , A. pilipennis , A. pilosa , A. postica , A. sawoniewiczi , A. victrix , A. xanthopa , Dilyta subclavata , Phaenoglyphis chinensis , P. heterocera and P. villosa . All species, except for P. chinensis and P. villosa , are here recorded for the first time from China. Diagnosis, material studied and distribution are given for each species. Plates with the diagnostic morp…

The Detailed Science Case for the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer, 2019 edition

(Abridged) The Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer (MSE) is an end-to-end science platform for the design, execution and scientific exploitation of spectroscopic surveys. It will unveil the composition and dynamics of the faint Universe and impact nearly every field of astrophysics across all spatial scales, from individual stars to the largest scale structures in the Universe. Major pillars in the science program for MSE include (i) the ultimate Gaia follow-up facility for understanding the chemistry and dynamics of the distant Milky Way, including the outer disk and faint stellar halo at high spectral resolution (ii) galaxy formation and evolution at cosmic noon, via the type of revolutionary…

Diversity of subfamily Anacharitinae (Hymenoptera: Cynipoidea: Figitidae) in China with description of a new species of Xyalaspis Hartig, 1843

Abstract The poorly known Anacharitinae fauna from China is studied. Two species of genus Aegilips Haliday, 1835 (which only had one species previously recorded there) are recorded in China. The genera Anacharis Dalman, 1823 and Xyalaspis Hartig, 1843 are recorded for the first time with two and four species present respectively. A new species of Xyalaspis, X. ribesi sp. n., is described. Diagnostic characters of the new species are illustrated, and data about biology, distribution and morphological variability of the Chinese Anacharitinae are discussed.
