Forewing hyaline, without dark transverse bands; stigmal vein regularly curved. Basivolsella (Fig. 1A) with lateral medial process and two subdistal bristles. Tibial spurs 1/1/2. Female. Unknown. Differential diagnosis. Based on the characters summarized in the above diagnosis, in the Afrotropical Region the new species is similar to Aphelopus vernonensis Olmi, 2009 (see keys of OLMI 1984, 2009). The main difference regards the position of the lateral process of the basivolsella (medial in A. severancei (Fig. 1A), distal in A. vernonensis (Fig. 1B)). The shape of the basivolsella is the most important character used for differentiating males of Aphelopus (OLMI 1994a, 1999a; XU et al. 2013; OLMI & VIRLA 2014). Etymology.

Tibial spurs 1/1/2. Male. Unknown. Differential diagnosis. In reference to the characters summarized in the above diagnosis, in the Afrotropical Region the new species is similar to Anteon felice Olmi & Harten, 2006. The main difference regards the sculpture of the scutellum: reticulate rugose in A. crowleydelmanorum and weakly granulated in A. felice. In addition, the areolae of the posterior surface of the propodeum are as large as those of the head in A. felice, smaller in A. crowleydelmanorum. Etymology. This species is named after my (RSC) friends Maureen Crowley, the noted urban environmentalist, and Peter Delman, the exceptional teacher and artist, who also has a place in his heart for insects. Hosts. Unknown. Distribution. Only known from the type locality.
