Extract

When visiting the Canadian National Collection (CNC), Ottawa in the spring of 1978, I not only studied Proctotrupoidea but also worked with Pteromalidae. To my great surprise, I came upon a female specimen of a Zdenekiana Hugg., previously only known from the type-species Z. plana (Hugg.), described from one reared pupa out of six found under pine bark in northern Sweden (Huggert 1976a, b).
