All the described species are from ACG; we have seen another species from ACG which cannot be described here because of poor LLY-507 site condition of its known specimen.

(N=1)?carpatus species-group Until now, Apanteles carpatus had been placed within the ater species group. However, we found that the combination of a relatively broad pterostigma (its length less than 3.0 ?its width) and mediotergite 2 mostly sculptured with strong longitudinal striation, seems to be characteristic of several Mesoamerican species; which are also strongly supported as a group by the Bayesian molecular analysis (PP: 0.99, Fig. 1). Thus, we here consider them as a distinct group, which so far comprises five species but it is likely to include more when other Neotropical areas are studied. The only hosts known are for A. carpatus, a cosmopolitan species with nine different families of host recorded, many of them dubious. More study will be required before accurate host families associated with this species-group can be established.
