The genus Podagrion was erected by Spinola (1811) from Caucasia based on the type species Podagrion splendens Spinola. Later several authors like Walker (1833), Westwood (1847), Costa (1856), Holmgren (1869), Saussure (1890), Schulz (1906), Girault (1913) and Gahan and Fagan (1923) redescribed or treated it under various junior synonyms. In the recent past Narendran (1994) revised the Indian species of Podagrion and gave a key to species in his revision of Torymidae and Eurytomidae of Indian subcontinent. Grissell (1995) treated Podagrion in his world revision of Toryminae.

Abstract


The genus Podagrion was erected by Spinola (1811) from Caucasia based on the type species Podagrion splendens Spinola. Later several authors like Walker (1833), Westwood (1847), Costa (1856), Holmgren (1869), Saussure (1890), Schulz (1906), Girault (1913) and Gahan and Fagan (1923) redescribed or treated it under various junior synonyms. In the recent past Narendran (1994) revised the Indian species of Podagrion and gave a key to species in his revision of Torymidae and Eurytomidae of Indian subcontinent. Grissell (1995) treated Podagrion in his world revision of Toryminae.
