Spalangia endius Walker
Spalangia muscidarum var. stomoxysiae Girault, 1916, p. 57 [female].
Spalangia stomoxysiae Girault, Peck in Muesebeck et al., 1951, p. 535.
This was described from two female cotypes. Lectotype labeled: “Hunter No. 2970, B. 18, Dallas, Tx., XI.24.12, Par. of Stomoxys calcitrans, Spalangia muscidarum stomoxyiae (!) Girault, Lectotype No. 19674 U.S.N.M.,” present designation of lectotype. (The other cotype is a specimen of S. cameroni Perkins.)
The lectotype of this species agrees in diagnostic characters with European specimens in the USNM of S. endius Walker, the species with which stomoxysiae has been synonymized by Bouček (1963, p. 458). Pronotum lacking anterior carina, but with an isolated crossrow of punctures just anterior to posterior margin, this crossrow subangularly produced anteriorly on the meson; median area of pronotum bare, lateral areas sparsely punctate; scutellum with complete frenal crossline of punctures, area anterior to this bare except for two or three minute punctures.
