Introduction The ceraphronoid wasps are quite common in the Holarctic Region, but they are one of the most poorly studied group of the parasitic hymenopterous insects. They have not been specially reviewed in Ukraine and less than 20 species of them have been registered on its territory till now (Àëåêñååâ, 1978). The previously published keys also require improvements. The principal task of this study is survey of Ceraphronoidea of the Ukrainian fauna, which is based on investigation both of the rich collections of the I. I. Schmalhausen Institute of Zoology, Kyiv, and those collected personally by the authors during last few years. In this paper we provide the original keys for the identification of the families, subfamilies, genera and species of Ceraphronoidea known from the Ukraine and adjacent territories, which could be found in Ukraine. Also brief remarks are given for each genus. More than 3000 specimens of Ceraphronoidea have been examined during this work. They were col- lected in the following districts of the Ukraine: Cherkassy, Chernigov, Chernovtsy, Dnipropetrovsk, Do- netsk, Ivano-Frankovsk, Kyiv, Kharkov, Kherson, Khmelnitsky, Lugansk, Lviv, Nikolaev, Odessa, Poltava, Rivne, Sumy, Transcarpathian, Vinnitsa, Zaporizhzha, Zhytomir and in the Crimea. The first part of this work contains keys to families and subfamiles, genera and species of the family Cerafronidae (except for the genus Conostigmus). Among the above mentioned taxonomic groups three gen- era (Holophleps Kozlov, Megaspilus Westwood and Laginodes Förster), and 14 species are found for the first time in the Ukraine; all of them are marked below by an asterisk (*). Te rm ino l o g y and a bb r e v i a t i on s : Thorax=mesosoma in Hymenoptera; Gaster=metasoma in Hymenoptera; L/W – length/width relation; A1—A11 – Antennal joints (A1=scape, A2=pedicel, A3=first funicular joint, etc.).

Radchenko 4 Apocrita peduncle. Antennae are 7—11-segmented, scape usually longer than each of the other antennal joints. Mesonotum is separated from scutellum and axillae by trans- versal suture, primary with median furrow and notauli; smaller species sometimes are without notauli and even without median furrow (genus Aphanogmus). Posterio-upper corners of pronotum reach of tegulae. Forewings with a large semioval pterostigma and radial vein, or only with the latter one. Tibiae of forelegs with two apical spurs. VI ab- dominal tergite of the Megaspilidae medially is with a very characteristic reticulate al- veolary area – Waterston's organ. Ovipositor is short, rarely surpassing the top of the abdomen. Male genitalia are with articulated mobile parameres and reduced cuspices. Ceraphronoids are primary parasites and hyperparasites of Diptera, Homoptera (Aphidae), Hymenoptera, Neuroptera and some other insects. Several species are myrmecophilous. Biology of the majority of cerafronoid species is still unknown. Up to now about 25 genera and 500 species are described Worldwile, but this number is much less than the real one.
