Abstract

Background

The checklist of British and Irish Ichneumonidae is revised, based in large part on the collections of the Natural History Museum, London and the National Museums of Scotland, Edinburgh. Distribution records are provided at the country level.

New information

Of the 2,447 species regarded as valid and certainly identified, 214 are here recorded for the first time from the British Isles. Neorhacodinae is considered to be a separate subfamily rather than a synonym of Tersilochinae. Echthrini is treated as a junior synonym of the tribe Cryptini, not Hemigastrini. Echthrus Gravenhorst and Helcostizus rster are classified in Cryptini rather than, respectively, Hemigastrini and Phygadeuontini.

Keywords

Britain, Ireland, fauna, Ichneumonoidea

Introduction

The Ichneumonidae is one of two families of the superfamily Ichneumonoidea, along with the Braconidae.  Given the size of each family in Britain (over 1,300 braconids and nearly 2,500 ichneumonids) we are publishing the two checklists separately. This is one part of a series of papers revising the British and Irish list of Hymenoptera, that started with Broad (2014), Broad and Livermore (2014b), Broad and Livermore (2014a) and Liston et al. (2014). For the background and rationale behind these British Hymenoptera checklists see Broad (2014).  The bases for the ichneumonid taxonomy are Yu and Horstmann (1997) and Taxapad (Yu et al. 2012) (ichneumonid data for both compiled by Klaus Horstmann). I have not relied on Yu et al. (2012) for data on species occurrence in Britain. Rather, I have relied mostly on the primary literature and collections, especially NMS and BMNH. Indeed, large parts of the checklist rely on original work, identifying specimens in these collections. The collections of the NMS have been invaluable in updating this checklist as Mark Shaw has very actively encouraged taxonomists to use the collections, which contain a large amount of recently collected, often reared, material. The late J.F. Perkins also did a huge amount to improve the BMNH collection of Ichneumonidae that was not really reflected in his published output. I have made great use of Perkins’s identifications as well as Horstmann’s, Andrey Khalaim’s and many other workers, including my own. Many Irish records are taken from O'Connor et al. (2007).

All additions to and deletions from the British list since Fitton (1978) are recorded as well as country-level distribution within the British Isles (but regarding the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland as one geographical unit), i.e. England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Isle of Man. The current numbers of valid, certainly identified ichneumonid species are listed per subfamily and by country in Table 1. This highlights the lack of data from countries other than England. Because the ichneumonid literature is extensive and scattered I also provide many taxonomic references. Some changes to classification are employed here, following molecular phylogenetic studies (Laurenne et al. 2006, Quicke et al. 2009). Two genera that are usually classified in Hemigastrini and Phygadeuontini - Echthrus Gravenhorst and Helcostizus Förster - are transferred to Cryptini (as originally suggested by Laurenne et al. 2006), which means that Echthrini Narayanan & Lal, 1958, becomes a junior synonym of Cryptini Kirby, 1837. And, contrary to Quicke et al. (2009), Neorhacodinae is again regarded as a valid subfamily, not as a synonym of Tersilochinae, following phylogenetic work by A.M.R. Bennett et al. (in prep.) and reflecting differences in host use.

Materials and methods

For a more detailed description of the background and rationale to the Hymenoptera checklist, see Broad (2014). I provide rather extensive Palaearctic synonymy and citations because if you do not have access to the Taxapad database (Yu et al. 2012) it can be very difficult to trace the fate of names in the voluminous and scattered literature, although some of the functionality of the catalogue is available online. Conventions and abbreviations are listed below.

stat. rev.        status revocatus, revived status (e.g., raised from synonymy)

unavailable   name unavailable under provisions of the ICZN code

var.                 variety, only available as a valid name under certain provisions of the ICZN code

When there are no countries listed for a species, there are two explanations. First, the species has been carried over from the previous checklist (Fitton 1978) and, although I have not seen any British specimens I have no reason to doubt the original identification. Second, specimens in collections are labelled with imprecise locality data, such as 'Great Britain'. This is the case with many of the older collections.

Alternative versions of the checklist can be downloaded here as a Word document or Excel spreadsheet under supplementary materials: Suppl. materials 1, 2. The British and Irish ichneumonid checklist, together with the entire Hymenoptera checklist, will be kept up to date in a Scratchpad, Hymenoptera of the British Isles.

Notes: 

Alomya has frequently been placed in its own subfamily, Alomyinae (e.g. Perkins 1959), or in a separate tribe within the Ichneumoninae (Diller 1981, Selfa and Diller 1994) but a close relationship with Colpognathus and Centeterus was proposed by Wahl and Mason (1995), with the result that the ichneumonine tribe here called Phaeogenini took the name Alomyini. Based on the molecular phylogenetic results of Laurenne et al. (2006) Alomya and Megalomya Uchida are considered here to comprise a separate subfamily.

As this species is now included in Perisphincter (Schnee 1978), a genus which Gauld knew at the time, and the specimen is lost (M.R. Shaw, pers. comm.), this is considered here to be a misidentification.

Notes: 

Although Gauld and Mitchell (1977b) record uniguttata as British on the basis of one specimen from Norfolk, no British specimen could be located in the depositories cited by Gauld & Mitchell (M.R. Shaw, pers comm.); Gauld was not aware at the time of the presence of rubricator in Britain.

Genus Erigorgus Förster, 1869

Nomenclature: 

SYMPRATIS Förster, 1869

Notes: 

Although Gauld (1976a), Gauld (1997) regarded Erigorgus as a subgenus of Gravenhorstia, most recent works regard it as a separate genus, a position followed by Yu and Horstmann (1997). As the relative merits of genus versus subgenus are rather subjective I have followed the majority opinion.

LOXONOTA Aubert, 1993

Notes: 

Contra Brock (in prep.), subgenera are not employed as there is little justification for their use and some ‘subgenera’ seem to be of use only in Europe, whereas there is a great variety of species in the wider world referred to Lissonota (Lissonota) by default.

species of Lissonota excluded from British and Irish list:

[bilineata Gravenhorst, 1829] J.P. Brock (pers. comm.) has not seen any authentic British material of this species.

[funebris Habermehl, 1923] Only known in Britain from L. Carr material (supposedly from Lichfield) and hence should have been excluded from the previous checklist (J.P. Brock, pers. comm.). See Perkins (1953) and Shaw (2003) for discussions on the inadmissability of species to the British list that are only represented by Carr’s material.

[impressor Gravenhorst, 1829; syn. basalis Brischke, 1865] Identified by Morley (1908) and Aubert (1978) as impressor Grav., based on Morley’s interpretation of Thomson’s interpretation; the species involved is apparently undescribed (J.P. Brock, pers. comm.).

Lissonota accusator (Fabricius, 1793)

Nomenclature: 

Ichneumon accusator Fabricius, 1793

segmentator misident.

rusticator (Thunberg, 1824, Ichneumon)

humeralis (Zetterstedt, 1838, Tryphon) preocc.

thomsoni Schmiedeknecht, 1900

nigricoxa Strobl, 1902

accusatrix Schulz, 1906

segmentellator Aubert, 1967

Distribution: 
England, Ireland
Notes: 

Brock (in prep.) does not explain his use of rusticator as the valid name for the species Horstmann (2001c) refers to as accusator, so the latter is followed here. The name accusator has often been applied to Cylloceria melancholica (Gravenhorst).

species of Campoplex excluded from the British and Irish list:

[borealis (Zetterstedt, 1838, Porizon)] All British specimens in NMS were reidentified as C. caloptiliae by Horstmann

[melanostoma (Strobl, 1904, Limneria); syn. anterior Aubert, 1960] On earlier versions of this checklist, C. melanostoma was included based on a reared specimen in NMS, but this was based on a misidentification of C. punctulatus.

Genus Dusona Cameron, 1901

Nomenclature: 

DELOPIA Cameron, 1903

Notes: 

Most distribution data from Horstmann (2011b), based on R. Hinz’s and K. Horstmann’s identifications of specimens in NMS and BMNH; older determinations of material in BMNH cannot be relied upon. Some species have been carried over from the 1978 checklist but no recent specimens have been seen, these are indicated by a ‘?’. Synonymy follows Hinz and Horstmann (2004) and Horstmann (2009a).

Species of Dusona excluded from the British and Irish list:

[limnobia (Thomson, 1887, Campoplex)] K. Horstmann had identified specimens in NMS as limnobia, which appeared on earlier versions of this checklist, but, following the redescription of the species (Horstmann 2009a), older identifications need to be checked (Horstmann 2011b).

[vidua (Gravenhorst, 1829, Campoplex)] Specimens identified in BMNH as Dusona vidua are actually Hyposoter tricolor (det. K. Horstmann); Shaw (2008) also notes that Irish records almost certainly refer to H. tricolor.

Notes: 

Echthrus is placed in the Cryptini, following Laurenne et al. (2006), rather than in the Hemigastrini, where it was placed by Townes (1970). Townes and Townes (1960) had previously placed Echthrus in the Cryptini based on similarities to the genera that Townes (1970) classified as the subtribe Gabuniina. The molecular results of Laurenne et al. (2006) support this interpretation, in agreement with Townes and Townes (1962).

Notes: 

Horstmann (1968) misidentified Fabricius’s migrator, a mistake followed by Schwarz and Shaw (1998). Horstmann’s subsequent (Horstmann 2001c) lectotype designations resulted in inquisitorius becoming the valid name for migrator sensu Horstmann (1968) and Schwarz and Shaw (1998) and migrator being the senior synonym for collaris. Sawoniewicz (2003) correctly applied the names (Horstmann, pers. comm.).

Notes: 

Sawoniewicz (2003) treats fortipes (Gravenhorst, 1829, Cryptus), with canaliculatus (Gravenhorst, 1829, Ichneumon) as a synonym, as distinct from distinctor. Despite Sawoniewicz’s quote of Morley (1907) for the concept of fortipes, all the British material in BMNH is referrable to distinctor, based on Sawoniewicz’s characters for separation of the species. NMS material has been identified by J. Sawoniewicz as distinctor.

Some distribution data from Horstmann (1998c)Townes (1983), whilst noting that crassicornis Ashmead 'might be segregated in a separate genus', retained crassicornis as a species of Medophron, whilst Yu and Horstmann (1997) follow  in treating Hedylus as a separate genus. Schwarz and Shaw (2010) follow Townes (1983), noting that separate of Hedylus is inconsistent with the synonymy of Subhemiteles with Medophron.

Wahl and Gauld (1998) argued that Hyperacmus is better placed in the Orthocentrinae but, on the basis of phylogenetic studies (Quicke et al. 2009), Hyperacmus is placed here in the Cylloceriinae.

Notes: 

The only English specimens listed by Kerrich (1949) (and possibly the same as those listed by Beirne 1941) were supposedly from the Lichfield district (Carr (1924)) and are thus inadmissable (Perkins 1953, Shaw 2003). There are specimens in BMNH recently identified by S. Klopfstein.

Sussaba placita Dasch, 1964

Nomenclature: 

punctiventris misident.

Distribution:

Notes: 

The only British specimens labelled as punctiventris in BMNH were misidentified flavipes, and Beirne (1941) did not mention any British or Irish specimens. According to S. Klopfstein (pers. comm.), specimens identified as punctiventris (Thomson, 1890, Homotropus) by Fraser et al. (2007) are actually placita and the species was subsequently recorded as placita by Mayhew et al. (2009).

Mesochorinae

Subfamily MESOCHORINAE Förster, 1869

Notes: 

Schwenke (1999) reinstated various synonyms of Astiphromma and Mesochorus as valid genera. This treatment is not followed here as Wahl (1993) gave good reasons for treating these as synonyms. Looking at material from across the globe, there are no clear-cut differences between, for example, Stictopisthus and Mesochorus. An exception is Dolichochorus, q.v. Distribution data, unless noted otherwise, are taken from Schwenke (1999), NMS, BMNH and UM.

Notes: 

Some distribution data and much synonymy from Riedel (2015), with most identifications by M. Riedel and GRB. J.F. Perkins, A. Roman and W. Schwenke had also identified a few interesting specimens in BMNH.

species of Astiphromma excluded from the British and Irish list:

[dorsale (Holmgren, 1860, Mesochorus)] No British or Irish specimens have been seen (Riedel 2015). The previously synonymous name hirsutum, described from British specimens, is a senior synonym of granigerum.

[striatum (Brischke, 1880, Mesochorus); syn. mandibulare (Thomson, 1886, Mesochorus)] All British specimens under the name mandibulare (synonymised under striatum by Riedel 2015) in BMNH have proved to be misidentifications.

Genus Dolichochorus Strobl, 1904

Notes: 

Mesochorus longiceps is the type species of Dolichochorus Strobl, 1904. This genus was synonymised under Astiphromma by Townes et al. (1965) but reinstated as a valid genus by Schwenke (1999). Wahl (1993) listed Dolichochorus as a synonym of Astiphromma but did not include longiceps in his cladistic analysis. Broad & Watanabe (in prep.) have found that Dolichochorus is a rather basal member of the Mesochorinae, and distinct from Astiphromma.

Dolichochorus longiceps (Strobl, 1904)

Nomenclature: 

Mesochorus longiceps Strobl, 1904

Distribution: 
England, Scotland, Ireland
Notes: 

Enicospilusmerdariusauctt. has now been split into three species, none of which is actually merdarius (Broad and Shaw 2016); E. merdarius was regarded as a synonym of E. ramidulus by Gauld (1973) and listed as such in Fitton (1978) but regarded by most recent authors as a valid species, which is borne out by the lack of intermediate specimens and differences in distribution (Broad and Shaw 2016) (allowing for the fact that the name merdarius was misappplied).

species of Stenomacrus excluded from the British and Irish list:

[affinis misident.] Stenomacrus affinis (Zetterstedt, 1838, Bassus) of authors was redescribed as S. affinitor Aubert, 1981 as the type of affinis is a species of Hypsicera (Metopiinae), a junior synonym of curvator (Fabricius). Old British records of ‘Stenomacrus affinis’ are not valid.

[exserens (Thomson, 1897, Orthocentrus)] Morley (1911) recorded Stenomacrus exserens as a British species but the only two specimens purportedly of this species in BMNH, from C. Morley’s collection, are misidentified Eusterinx. There is no other evidence that exserens is a British or Irish species.

Tersilochinae

Subfamily TERSILOCHINAE Schmiedeknecht, 1910

Nomenclature: 

PHRUDINAE Townes & Townes, 1949

Notes: 

Following the phylogenetic results of Quicke et al. (2009), the Tersilochinae now encompasses the former subfamily Phrudinae (containing the genera Astrenis, Phrudus and Pygmaeolus in Britain) (they also synonymised Neorhacodinae under Tersilochinae but I don’t follow that decision). Distribution data for the ‘tersilochine’ genera from Horstmann (1971), Horstmann (1981a) and material in BMNH and NMS, mostly determined by K. Horstmann and, latterly, A. Khalaim; distribution data for the ‘phrudine’ genera from Gauld and Fitton (1980) and Vikberg and Koponen (2000); additional references are given.

Nomenclature: 

NETELIA Schulz, 1906

Notes: 

Netelia fulvator Delrio, 1971, was recorded as British by Horstmann (1992b), on the basis that the paralectotype specimens of Paniscus testaceus belong to this species; however, Broad & Shaw (in prep.) will synonymise fulvator under another name.

Netelia (Netelia) testacea (Gravenhorst, 1829)

Nomenclature: 

Paniscus testaceus Gravenhorst, 1829

Distribution: 
England, Scotland
Notes: 

Added by Horstmann (1992b); this has been a much misunderstood name. Listed as a possible (senior) synonym of opacula in Fitton (1978), Horstmann (1992b) regarded it as a possible senior synonym of valvator Aubert, 1969. Broad & Shaw (in prep.), following a dissection of the lectotype male’s genitalia, offer a different interpretation of testacea. Tolkanitz (1974) and Kasparyan and Tolkanitz (2000) treated fuscicarpus, together with its associated synonyms, as a junior synonym of testacea. This is not followed here.

Distribution: 
England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland
Notes: 

Added by Shaw (2001) who tentatively identified this widespread species as thomsoni (lapsus for Netelia thomsonii (Brauns, 1899, Paniscus), whilst noting that in Delrio (1975) specimens would key to inedita. Tolkanitz (1974) synonymised inedita under thomsonii but these two species are distinct (Broad & Shaw, in prep.), with inedita occurring in Britain and Ireland. This species has also been referred to in the literature as ornata and longipes.

Distribution: 
England
Notes: 

Previous records of ornata in Britain were probably based on misidentifications of inedita but there are specimens of the true ornata in BMNH (Broad & Shaw, in prep.). Netelia longipes has been treated as a separate species by Tolkanitz (1974) and Kasparyan and Tolkanitz (2000) but as a synonym of ornata by Delrio (1975). The type of longipes is very similar to material corresponding to ornata (Broad & Shaw, in press).

species of Ctenochira excluded from the British and Irish list:

[?breviseta (Ratzeburg, 1852, Pimpla); syn. aberrans (Ruthe, 1855, Tryphon) (Horstmann 2002c)] Although appearing on the last British list (Fitton 1978, as aberrans), this may have been on the basis of misidentifications of haemosterna (K. Horstmann, pers. comm.). Kasparyan and Tolkanitz (2000) interpreted aberrans as a synonym of haemosterna but K. Horstmann’s interpretation is followed here, having revised the closely related species involved (Horstmann 2002c).

NMS, det. Horstmann, BMNH, det. Broad, added here; specimens of Dyspetes in Britain and Ireland have usually been treated as one species (named praerogator or arrogator) but Horstmann (2006a) demonstrated that the commoner species is actually luteomarginatus. The name praerogator was used by Gravenhorst and Thomson, referring to Linnaeus’s praerogator, which is actually a species of Tranosemella (Campopleginae). These usages of praerogator are unavailable names (Horstmann 2005b, Horstmann 2006a).

Notes: 

H.K. Townes (pers. comm. to M.G. Fitton) regarded duplicatus as a junior synonym of exclamationis, the correct name for the species here called duplicatus being Tryphon hinzi (Heinrich, 1953). Townes also regarded ‘duplicatus’ (=hinzi sensu Townes) as comprising two species, one with red hind femora and one with black hind femora, also differing in characteristics of the egg. However, Shaw and Kasparyan (2005) regard a form of bidentatus with red hind femora as possibly being synonymous with hinzi. Further clarification is needed.

Acknowledgements

Jim Brock, Mike Fitton, the late Klaus Horstmann, Heinz Schnee and Mark Shaw have all been of great help in maintaining the accuracy of the list and in providing the encouragement to actually finish it. Klaus Horstmann and Kees Zwakhals bravely checked drafts of the entire list and provided many useful comments. Tony Hunter (World Museum Liverpool) kindly provided several unpublished Welsh records. Natalie Dale-Skey transformed the original Word files into spreadsheets for import. I am grateful to the photographers who were happy for me to use their images to brighten up the checklist.
