NEW publication 'Review of Diapriidae of the Faroe Islands (Hymenoptera, Diapriidae)' with Mio Hübner, Hannes Gabel, Viktor Deines & Agnes-Katharina Kreiling. Free download here: researchgate.net/publication/38… We identified 10 species including Basalys abruptus (figs below)

New paper was published. I newly recorded five proctos from Japan and mentioned morphological variation on Brachyserphus and Cryptoserphus. Further research is needed in East Asia.
