Character

Metapleural-propodeal supracoxal flange (cxf) [65]

Description

The propodeum of larger-bodied chalcidoids usually has its posterolateral margin developed into a distinct flange that extends over the base of the hind coxa, the supracoxal flange. Sometimes the anterior and posterior endpoints of the supracoxal flange are indicated by shallow pits. Presence of a supracoxal flange was scored only in those taxa where it overlapped the base of the metacoxa, not just the coxal articulation. The flange is absent in most smaller Chalcidoidea.
