Antennae blackish brown. Legs blackish brown, tarsi somewhat male mm (figs. 53a—53c). Remarks. — Platygaster evadne represents the male of P. attenuata. I select here the nameP. attenuata with P. evadne as synonym (syn. nov.). The male, with its remarkable longmetasoma which is curved down apically, seems to be a typical example of the male sex of theattenuata group. Vlug : Types of Platygastndae 203.
