Three new species of Chalcidoidea wasps of the genus Ormyrus Westwood, 1832 are found in material
collected by Mr. Antonius van Harten and his colleagues of the UAE Insect Project. No Ormyridae have
been hitherto recorded in entomological publications from the United Arab Emirates. The holotypes and
paratypes of the new species are deposited in the collection of the Schmalhausen Institute of Zoology
National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (Kyiv). Furthermore, two Palaearctic Ormyrus species are record-
ed for the first time for UAE fauna.
Abbreviations: T1—T7 are used in the key for the gasteral tergites 1—7. POL – distance between late -
ral ocelli; OOL – distance from lateral ocellus to eye border.

gium dark brown; antennal scape yellow, pedicellus and flagellar segments brownish-
yellow, club some darker. Wings hyaline, venation yellow; coxae the same colour as
body, all femora brownish-green, tibia brown, tarsi yellow. Head and dorsal thorax sur-
face with very fine sculpture, abdomen with thin reticulation, without pits and rows of
foveae.
Head from above slightly broader than pronotum; width to length 40 : 16; temple
much shorter than height of eye; POL longer than OOL in ratio 7 : 2; occipital carina
very thin, hardly visible. Head in frontal view wider than height in ratio 40 : 27, ante-
rior margin of clypeus straight, eyes bare, gena almost two times shorter than longitu-
dinal eye diameter (9 : 20). Antenna inserted much below middle of face, some high-
er the lower eyes level, scape thin and long, pedicellus as long, as three anelli and the
first flagellar segment combined; flagellum with 3 very small anelli, short and stout,
flagellum notably narrowed basally, all funicular segments transverse, club not wider
than flagellum, some shorter than three previous flagellar segments.
Mesosoma bulging, the surface of pronotum, mesoscutum and scutellum with very
thin reticulation; pubescence of thorax very short; scutellum twice as long as broad,
narrowed to apex. Propodeum subvertical, short, smooth. Coxa and tibia without dis-
tinct sculpture, smooth; fore wing with very short, feebly visible pilosity; cubital and
basal hairline not clear, basal cell bare, postmarginal vein long, nearly three times as
long as redial.
Metasoma twice as long as mesosoma (55 : 25) (in profile), all abdominal tergites
covered with small shallow punctures and long white bristles.
Ma l e. Length 1.4 mm. The colour and sculpture as by female.
D i s c u s s i o n. Ormyrus qurrayahi sp. n. belongs to the diffinis species group (female
gaster without dorsal median keel). Three Palaearctic species of this group have 3 anelli
in antennae: O. parvulus Zerova, 1985; O. lanatus Zerova, 1985; O. similis Zerova, 1985.
O. bicolor Zerova, 2006 from Yemen is also close to this group. The new species is most
similar to Ormyrus similis Zerova, 1985, described from Uzbekistan. Both species have
three very small anelli and fine sculpture on abdominal tergites, but new species differs
from O. similis by having more transverse funicular segments, much longer abdomen in
both sexes, and especially longer epipygium and postmarginal vein. The sculpture of
abdominal tergites is more clear in a new species and colour of body much darker.
E t ymo l o g y. The name of the new species is derived from its type locality.

club not wider than the last flagellar segment, pubescence of flagellum very short, poor-
ly visible.
Mesosoma (in profile) gibbous, sculpture on pronotum, mesoscutum and scutel-
lum consisting of very thin cross-striation, formed by numerous fine strips, the surface
of thorax shining, pubescence of thorax short and dense. Scutellum 1,3 times longer
than broad, its apex rounded. Propodeum subvertical, short, smooth. Coxa with very
fine reticulation, femora and tibia with the same surface as by coxa. Fore wing with
very dense pilosity, cubital and basal hairlines are not visible, basal and costal cells bare;
postmarginal vein twice as long as redial.

Ma l e unknown.
D i s c u s s i o n. Ormyrus punctellus sp. n. belongs to the diffinis species group
(female gaster without dorsal median keel). In this group, the new species is close to
Ormyrus bicolor Zerova, 2006, described from Yemen. It differs from O. bicolor by
shorter metasoma, shorter postmarginal vein and whole dark-brown abdomen, by
O. bicolor abdomen dorsally is with great yellow spot.
E t ymo l o g y. The name of the species reflects the peculiarities of its abdominal
sculpture.

costal cells bare, postmarginal vein 2 times longer than radial.
Metasoma longer than mesosoma in ratio 50 : 35 (in profile); female gaster dor-
sally with longitudinal median carina, but carina is smooth (not very sharp); the sur-
face of T1 with distinct punctuation, T2—T5 with shallow pits and rows of foveae, T6 –

by very short and flat anelli.

* There was one error in couplet 10(9) (Zerova, Seryogina, 2006): “metasoma of } less than 3 times as
long as mesosoma” must be read “instead of metasoma } more than 3 times as long as mesosoma”.
** Nieves-Aldrey (1984) noted that this species has two anelli, but the second anellus is near flagellar
segments and bears sensillae.
