A REVISION OF THE SUBFAMILY ZELINAE AUCT. (HYMENOPTERA, BRACONIDAE) by CYAN ACHTERBERG Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden, Netherlands With 900 text-figures Abstract Tlie subfamily Zelinae, as defined by Mason (1973) and Van Achterberg (1976b), is revised. The genera Zele, Homolobus and Charmon are redefined, the genus Zele is separated from the Zelinae auct. and is added to the Euphorinae-Meteorini as a senior synonym of Zemiotes. The remaining group of genera is renamed Homolobinae, including two tribes, Homolobini tribus nov. and Charmontini tribus nov. In the Homolobinae two new genera from the New World, Exasticolus and Charmontia, are described. For the first time the genera Zele, Homolobus and Charmon are fully revised, keyed and illustrated and a subgeneric division of Homolobus is proposed. Of the total of 61 valid species, 32 are newly described, while in addition 32 new combinations and 34 synonyms are proposed.
