Character

Annular basal ring of male genital capsule [227]

Description

The basal ring (=cupula) is assumed to be lost from the male genital capsule of most Chalcidoidea, but an apparent basal ring occurs in some Eucharitidae. The basal ring is not the same as the membranous connective tissue that forms a sheath around the base of the genitalia in Chalcidoidea. Citation: Gibson (1986: 20).
