摘要: Cerocephalinae (Chalcidoidea, Pteromalidae) is a small group of parasitoid wasps characterized by number derived diagnostic features. Their hosts are endophytic beetles. So far, 43 species have been described, including one fossil from the Miocene. In this study, we add two new genera and Baltic Dominican amber to record. Tenuicornus dominicus gen. et sp. n. second genus described amber, Pteropilosa lailarabanorum n., represents oldest record subfamily, pushing minimum age back Eocene. Diagnostic characters both discussed in comparison with other Cerocephalinae. An updated key extant presented.
