Koutsoukos Evangelos, Delvare Gérard. 2021. First record of the subfamily Epitraninae (Hymenoptera: Chalcididae) in the European Continent. Travaux du Muséum national d'histoire naturelle "Grigore Antipa", 64 (1) : 61-65.

Résumé : Epitraninae Burks (Hymenoptera: Chalcididae) is a subfamily with a single recognised genus, Epitranus Walker, known to be distributed throughout the tropical areas of the Old World. Whilst recent studies have reported the presence of Epitraninae in countries of the Middle East, there are no published records from the European continent. A female specimen belonging to the Epitranus hamoni species complex was collected in Salamis island, Attica, Greece, and deposited at the Museum of Zoology (Athens). This record constitutes an important addition to the Greek and European Chalcidoidea fauna.
