impossible to recognize on the characters that have been used in the past. Species with red hind femora have usually been called glohata L. Indeed, this is the name that appears most frequently in the literature on European Microgaster. I do not know to what species it should be applied. The Linnean type no longer exists and the little that Linne said about it indicates that it is a gregarious parasite living in stalks (? reeds) " in Culmis, intra folliculum communem, bombycinum, subrotundum, album ". Microgaster glohata auctt. is a solitary parasite. The name "globata " is not used in this paper.
