The genus of Cotesia is one of the largest and most difficult groups of the subfamily (NIXON 1974). Although most species of this genus are gregarious as larvae, about one quarter is solitary. The genus Cotesia CAMERON, 1891 differs from other Cotesini genera by having propodeum mostly rugose, and usually with a median and a short carina (MASON 1981). Traditionally, the majority of Microgastrinae species has been placed in Apanteles by MARSHAL (1885) and MUESEBECK (1920). MASON (198 1) split up the genus Apanteles FOERSTER into a series of genera. The glomeratus species-group is identical with the generic conception of Cotesia CAMERON, 1891. MASON (198 1) treated this genus also in this comprehension.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCotesiaMicrogastrinaeBraconidaeNew SpeciesTurkeyArticle482157160Q4WOS:000177903400005
