Character

Structure of lateral panel of prepectus [44]

Description

State 1 refers to any fovea on the surface of the lateral panel of the prepectus, defined by a dorsal, posterior, and/or anterior carina. A heavily sculptured lateral panel may potentially obscure any presence of a rim, but typically this refers to small prepectus found in Eurytomidae and Chalcididae.

States
