Chao-Dong Zhu and Da-Wei Huang (2003) A study of the genus Euplectrus Westwood (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) in China. Zoological Studies 42(1): 140-164. This paper treats the Chinese species of the genus Euplectrus Westwood. Thirty valid species are recognized from China and a key to species is provided. Four species of Euplectrus were known previously from China: E. bicolor (Swederus), E. euplexiae Rohwer, E. liparidis Ferrière, and E. maculiventris Westwood. Twelve species, including E. ceylonensis (Howard), E. cinc- tiventris Ferrière, E. flavipes Fonscolombe, E. indicus Ferrière, E. koebeli Crawford, E. laphygmae Ferrière, E. leucostomus Rohwer, E. manilae Ashmead, E. medanensis Crawford, E. nigrescens Ferrière, E. platyhypenae Ashmead, E. noctuidiphagus Yasumatsu, E. parvulus Ferrière, E. petiolatus Ferrière, and E. xanthocephalus Girault, are newly recorded from China. Ten species are also newly recorded from other countries: E. ceylo- nensis from Malaysia and Viet Nam; E. cinctiventris from Mexico, Papua New Guinea, and Venezuela; E. flavipes from the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Turkey, and Yugoslavia; E. indicus from Mexico and Thailand; E. koebeli from Mexico and Papua New Guinea; E. leucostomus from the Dominican Republic and Mexico; E. manilae from Australia, Japan, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, and Thailand; E. medanensis from Guinea, Japan, and Nigeria; E. nigrescens from Venezuela; E. noctuidiphagus from Nepal; E. xanthocephalus from India, Indonesia, Japan, and Malaysia. Eleven new species of E. acutigaster, E. brevicarinatus, E. brevisetulo- sus, E. flavigaster, E. fuscicoxalis, E. laeviscutellum, E. longigaster, E. longipetiolatus, E. paribus, E. reticulates, and E. transversus are described and compared to both Chinese species and other possible similar species worldwide. http://www.sinica.edu.tw/zool/zoolstud/42.1/140.pdf
