Introduction The genus Anastatus Motschulsky has never been revised for a considerable amount of information has North America, though been published on the biology of some of our species. Anastatus was successfully introduced from Europe into Ruschka disparis North America for biological control of the gypsy moth, Porthetria dispar (L.), in the early years of this century (Clausen, 1956), and there is a very large literature about this species. A. tenuipes a successful of the brown-banded Bolivar y Pieltain, parasite which seems to have followed roach, Supella supellectilium (Serv.), a its host unaided into the United States, has also accumulated (Roth and Willis, 1960). bibliography for all the North gives complete bibliographies to 1959; later references are in American of Anastatus up species are readily avail Burks Since both these publications (1967). I do give I have not repeated those citations in this paper. able, the original citation and a brief statement about here, however, I have for each species. Where hosts and distribution necessary, from existing cotype series. designated lectotypes In Anastatus is very great. The males and females antigeny to each other, figs. 1,2. It is only possible bear little resemblance to associate the two sexes through fortunate rearings that happen to produce both sexes under conditions that leave no doubts of the males about the association are rare or absent in some species. reliable male material the classification All the North and females.
