Figures 98–101 in The suprageneric groups of the Pimplinae (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae): a cladistic re-evaluation and evolutionary biological study

Figures 98–101. Posterior end of metasoma of male, showing position and shape of tergites VII−IX and gonosquama, slightly diagrammatic; 98, Rhyssa persuasoria; 99, Dolichomitus irritator; 100, Xanthopimpla aurita; 101, Pimpla sumichrasti. The condition in outgroups, and thus the presumed plesiomorphic condition in pimplines is shown in the first two figures. Tergites VIII and IX are fused in the subsequent two, and the gonosquama show progressive retraction into the posterior end of the metasoma.
