Description
Small hymenopteran insects , length from 3.0 to 3.5 mm. Dark brown; apical abdominal tergites from light brown to yellow; the scapus is light brown, the flagellum is brown (consists of 23–27 segments), the legs are yellow. The vertex and face of the head are smooth. In the front wing, a radio-medial vein is developed. Fore tibia with single row of short spines along anterior margin. On the hind coxae of the legs there is a distinct anteroventral basal protrusion; the vertex of the head on the side of the eye is not sharp angular. Presumably, like other species of the genus Heterospilus , parasitize on beetles or butterflies. The species was first described in 2013 by the American hymenopterologist Paul Marsh ( Paul M. Marsh ; , Kansas , USA ) with a group of American fellow entomologists ( Wild Alexander L. , Whitfield James B .; University of Illinois at Urban- Champaign , Erbana , Illinois , USA) and is named after entomologist Angelica Penteado-Dias , a specialist in riders from the family of braconids [1] .
