Rediscovery of Afromegischus gigas (Schletterer, 1889) (Hymenoptera: Stephanidae) from Iran.

The stephanid species, Afromegischus gigas (Schletterer, 1889) (Hym.: Stephanidae) which was originally described from Iran based on the holotype only, was rediscovered. A re-description of the female and the first description of the male are provided, and important characters of both sexes are illustrated. It was reared on Bostrichus capucimus (L.) (Col.: Bustrichidae) for the first time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
