NOTES ON BRITISH PIMPLINAE AND POEMENIINAE (HYMENOPTERA: ICHNEUMONIDAE), WITH ADDITIONS TO THE BRITISH LIST

摘要

British (sensu British Isles) species of two ichneumonid subfamilies, Pimplinae and Poemeniinae, treated as "Pimplinae" in a Royal Entomological Society Handbook for the Identification of British Insects (Fitton, Shaw & Gauld, 1988), are reviewed. Taxonomic and nomenclatural changes are indicated, and means to identify the ten additional species found to occur in Britain since the latter publication are given. Significant new data on distribution and/or host associations are given for a total of over 50 species, four of which are here recorded from Britain for the first time.
