Topic: Hymenoptera: Eulophidae - Cirrospilus pinicolus sp. nov.

Chris,

A new species from Britain of the Hymenoptera: Eulophidae was described in Ent.Mon.Mag.Vol. 120 pages: 63-68 (26th March 1984) by Dick Askew - this species being Cirrospilus pinicolus sp. nov.

The species description can be seen in the Ent.Mon.Mag. pdf here:  http://www.nhm.ac.uk/resources/research … kew984.pdf

An important one for me as some of the records mentioned in the paper are Cheshire ones (after all Dick lived in the county).

Cheers.

Steve
