Description
Small riders are braconids , the length of the front wing is 1-3 mm. Antennae from 12-23 segments. The mandibular palps are 4-5-segmented, the lower labial palps are composed of 1-2 segments. Ovipositor wide, claws of tarsi simple. The marginal cell of the fore wing varies in size, vein r is developed or absent, vein 2M is sclerotized, vein (RS + M) b is not developed, length of veins m-cu and 2RS varies [1] [2] .
Ecology
Representatives of the genera Cosmophorus , Cryptoxilos , Plynops , Ropalophorus, and Eucosmophorus are all known as parasitoids of imago bark beetles ( Scolytinae ) from the family Curculionidae ( Coleoptera ) [1] .
Systematics
About 5 genera, taking into account Ropalophorus (from the tribe Dinocampini ), Cryptoxilos and Plynops (transferred from Euphorini ) and Tuberidelus (transferred from Perilitini ) [1] [3] [4] .
