Head strongly and roundly constricted behind eyes in dorsal view (Fig. 3); gena 0.7 × as long as eye width. Clypeus 2.6 × as broad as long, lenticular, separated from face by distinct impression (Fig. 2), smooth in lower half, with sharp and moderately dense punctures in upper half; clypeus slightly convex in lateral view. Mandible robust, strongly constricted in basal half; upper tooth twice longer than lower tooth. Malar space about 0.4 × as long as basal mandibular width. Antennal flagellum (Fig. 7) slender, weakly constricted towards apex, with 19 flagellomeres; flagellomeres 2 – 8 about twice as long as broad, subapical flagellomeres 1.6 – 1.8 × as long as broad; flagellomeres 4 – 6 bearing small subapical finger-shaped structures on outer surface. Face weakly convex, with slight median prominence. Face, frons, vertex and gena finely granulate, dull, finely punctate but with punctures mostly indistinct because of granulation (Figs 2, 3). Occipital carina complete, arcuate in dorsal view, slightly flattened dorsally. Mesoscutum granulate, dull, with fine and dense punctures (Fig. 3). Notaulus completely absent (Fig. 3). Scutellum with lateral longitudinal carinae present in basal 0.2. Upper end of epicnemial carina reaching front margin of mesopleuron at level of lower 0.3 of pronotum; epicnemial carina joining front margin of mesopleuron at very acute angle, i. e. without abrupt curvation (Fig. 1). Foveate groove of mesopleuron absent. Mesopleuron finely granulate and finely punctate (centrally granulation is very shallow and punctures are more distinct), dull peripherally and weakly shining centrally. Propodeum with distinct basal keel which is about half as long as apical area (Fig. 5). Propodeal spiracle separated from pleural carina by almost 1.0 × diameter of spiracle.

039A87E0FF9BE122FF59FF52FC385287.taxon	discussion	Comparison. Diaparsis deimos sp. nov. is immediately distinguished from all congeners by its robust and slightly decurved ovipositor (Fig. 6), unique within the Tersilochinae. All other known members of the subfamily possess either weakly or strongly upcurved, or sometimes a long and flexible ovipositor. The new species is also characterized by the lack of notaulus and foveate groove of mesopleuron.	en	Khalaim, Andrey I.

Diaparsis phobos sp. nov. is immediately distinguished from all congeners by conspicuous deep impressions on outer sides of ocelli (Figs 11 – 13) and fore wing with first and second sections of radius (Rs + 2 r and Rs) meeting at very obtuse angle (Fig. 19). The former feature is recorded and described for the subfamily Tersilochinae for the first time, and the latter feature (broad radial cell) is typical for the Neotropical genus Stethantyx Townes and the endemic New Zealand genus Barycnellus Khalaim & Ward, but occurs very rarely in other tersilochine genera.	en	Khalaim, Andrey I.
