Abstract

Altogether, 55 species belonging to 21 genera of the family Eulophidae are recorded for the fauna of Georgia (Sakartvelo) from the Lagodekhi Nature Reserve. The most species-rich genera were Diglyphus Walker, 1844 with 10 species, Chrysocharis Foerster, 1856 and Pediobius Walker, 1846, with 9 species each. The most common species, comprising almost 10% of all specimens collected are Pediobius metallicus (Nees, 1834), Diglyphus isaea (Walker, 1838) and Chrysocharis nephereus (Walker, 1839). Most of the species are distributed in subalpine forest and subalpine meadows and shrubland zones.
