Discovery of the subfamily Lycorininae Cushman & Rohwer, 1920 (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) from Indonesia, based on Lycorina longicauda Shimizu, sp. nov., with a key to the Oriental Lycorina species

The subfamily Lycorininae Cushman & Rohwer is discovered from Indonesia based on a single new species, Lycorina longicauda Shimizu, sp. nov., which can be easily distinguished from any other Lycorina species by its longer ovipositor sheath and colour pattern. We also provide a key to the five species of Lycorina known from the Oriental region.
