| Additional data: | In Bangladesh this parasitoid was first recorded by this author in 1984 from Patiya, Chittagong, as an undescribed species of Anagyrus. The specimen was later described by J. S. Noyes of the Natural History Museum, London as Anagyrus mangicola (Noyes, 1990a; Bhuiya et al., 1997). Specimens collected from Bangladesh and India were reared in England and in Bangladesh. The Bangladeshi specimens were included as paratypes and were deposited in BMNH (Noyes, 1990a). | |||||
