(Figs 4 A, 4B, 6A, 6C, 7A)
Type material. Holotype 3 (SMNK), “Z[entral]- Afghanistan, Koh-i-Baba, S-Seite, Panjao, 2650 m, 20– 22.vii.1966, H. G. Amsel leg.” [genital slide 9426 PdE]. Paratypes: 1 3 (SMNK), same locality as holotype [genital slide 9434 PdE]; 1 3 (SMNK), “Z[entral]- Afghanistan, Koh-i-Baba Mts., Panjao, 2500 m, 26.vi– 1.vii.1961, G. Ebert leg.” [genital slide 9435 PdE]; 1 Ƥ (SMNK), same locality as holotype [genital slide 9433 PdE].
Diagnosis. Characters that allow to identify the species (Table 2) are the bifid S8, with apices narrow and short, and the valvae rounded. Also the well developed coecum penis has a characteristic shape, being greatly developed as in B. drepanella, and larger than in B. afghana (Fig. 6). The female can be identified by the shape of lamella antevaginalis, which is far larger than in B. afghana (Fig. 7).
Description. Wingspan 18 mm. Forewing very pale brown, longitudinal line almost inconspicuous; fringe pale brown. Hindwing whitish pale brown, fringe tawny. Head and thorax brown, abdomen pale brown. Legs light brown. Antenna as long as forewing, brown.
Male genitalia. Uncus very short, shaped as a large cup; gnathos proximally asymmetrical, laminar, distal part tapered. Tegumen triangular, pedunculi narrowed and elongate. Valvae with proximal third polygonal, distal two-thirds narrow and inwardly turned, apices rounded and spatular. Vinculum as long as tegumen, distal margin rounded. Phallus bisinuate, shortly narrowed near pointed apex. Juxta triangular, apex large, thick. S8 elongate, narrowed at two-thirds, apices bifid, sharp, divergent, upturned; T8 unmodified, membranous.
Female genitalia. Apophyses anteriores triangular, connected by a bent sclerotized ridge. Lamella antevaginalis oval, more thickened on margin. Lamella postvaginalis oval, with transverse, well-sclerotized apical part. Ductus bursae wrinkled, and sclerotized in distal half. Segments VI and VII with a sclerotized ring.
Variation. Specimens of both the sexes have similar external appareance, being very pale brown, with no evident line on the forewing surface.
Etymology. The species was named after both Anna Passerin d’Entrèves, the daughter of PPdE, and Anna Roggero, the sister of AR.
Remarks. The Koh-i-Baba Mts are in the Hindu Kush; Panjao lies at the heart of the Hazarajat, a large mountainous region in central Afghanistan.

(Figs 5 A, 5B, 6B, 6D, 7B)
Type material. Holotype 3 (SMNK), “O[st]- Afghanistan, Salang-Pass, N-Seite, Khinjan, 2100 m 5– 11.vii.1966, H. G. Amsel leg.” [genital slide 1260 PdE]. Paratypes: 13 3 (SMNK and PdE), same locality as holotype [genital slides 9427, 9429, 9430, 9431, 9432, 9437, 9438, 9440, 9441, 9442, 9443, 9445, 9448 PdE]; 3 ƤƤ (SMNK and PdE), same locality as holotype [genital slide 9439, 9446, 9447 PdE].
Diagnosis. The narrow and arched valvae and the bifid S8 with two projections subapically can be used to distinguish the species from the others (Table 2). The female can be identified on the basis of the shape of the lamella antevaginal which is subrectangular and smaller than in B. annae (Fig. 7).
Description. Wingspan 18 mm. Forewing pale brown, with broad, longitudinal, very pale brown line in the middle; fringe pale brown. Hindwing whitish pale brown, glossy, apices and hind margin pale brown; fringe very pale brown. Head, thorax and abdomen pale brown. Legs light brown. Antenna dark brown.
Male genitalia. Uncus small, cordiform; gnathos asymmetrical, proximal parts laminar, distal part downturned, pointed. Tegumen triangular, pedunculi short. Valvae asymmetrical, proximal part polygonal, with a projection carrying a tuft of short, tawny setae; distal three-fourth rectilinear, narrow, inwardly curved, apices rounded; distal third of left valva with rounded lamina on inner margin. Vinculum as long as tegumen, distal margin rounded. Phallus longer than valvae, downcurved, bisinuate in distal third, apex sharp. Juxta shield-shaped, short and narrow. S8 elongate, narrowed in distal third, with bifid, blunt apices and two perpendicular projections near apex; deep and narrow triangular notch on proximal margin; T8 unmodified, subrectangular, membranous.
Female genitalia. Apophyses anteriores triangular, connected by V-shaped sclerotized ridge. Lamella antevaginalis a subrectangular plate, thickened on sides, with a membranous, triangular, narrow area in middle. Lamella postvaginalis oval, with transverse, thick, bilobed structure. Ductum bursae wrinkled, with distal portion sclerotized. Segments VI and VII with sclerotized ring.
Variation. Male and female have a similar external appareance, but the female is slightly darker.
Etymology. The species was named after Afghanistan, where it was collected in 1966.
Remarks. For information about Salang Pass and Khinjan, see B. khinjani sp. nov. above. The species is relatively common, since 17 individuals were collected from the same locality.

Type material. Holotype 3 (SMNK), Z[entral]- Afghanistan, Koh-i-Baba Mts., S-Seite, Panjao, 2650 m, 26.vi–1.vii.1961, G. Ebert leg.” [genital slide 9428 PdE]. Paratype: 1 3 (SMNK), Z-Afghanistan, Koh-i-Baba, S-Seite, Panjao, 2650 m, 20–22.vii.1966, H. G. Amsel leg.”[genital slide 9444 PdE].
Diagnosis. The species can be easily identified (Table 2) by the Y-shaped and elongate uncus, which is peculiar to this species, by the large, rectilinear and distally expanded valvae and by the outwardly directed projections of the bifid S8.
Description. Wingspan 18 mm. Forewing pale brownish, with thick, whitish, zigzag line; fringe brown. Hindwing and fringe pale brown. Head and thorax cream-coloured, abdomen pale brown. Legs creamcoloured. Antenna pale brown.
Male genitalia. Uncus Y-shaped, well-developed, base twice long as apices; gnathos asymmetrical, proximal arms laminar, distal arm narrow, sharp at apex, downcurved. Tegumen triangular. Valvae symmetrical, rectilinear, apices rounded, with sharp projection at inner distal margin. Juxta base large, narrowed toward joint with phallus. Phallus very elongate, almost twice longer than valvae, narrow, downcurved, apical third rectilinear. Vinculum as long as tegumen, narrow, margin rounded. S8 triangularshaped, apex bifid, with points divergent and a deep, triangular notch at proximal margin; T8 oval, with large triangular notch at proximal margin.
Variation. The specimens examined showed no noticeable variation.
Etymology. The species was named after the granddaughter of PPdE, one of the authors.
Remarks. See B. annae sp. nov. for further information about the Koh-i-Baba Mts. and Panjao.

Material examined: 1♀, Kharga Oasis (New Valley) [25°31’34.0”N 30°37’19.9”E], May, 2022, blue pan trap in Vicia faba intercropped with Brassica napus.
Diagnosis. Antenna with 17 antennomeres, F1 brown, with narrow yellow area ventrally, about 2.5× as long as its width centrally; labial palpus 2-segmented; anterolateral area of petiole costate, with 4–5 costae; r-m vein of fore wing present, vein M+m-cu completely developed; vein R1 of fore wing about as long as or slightly shorter (0.9×) than pterostigma length.
Distribution in the MENA: Algeria, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel-Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, Yemen.
Comments: Aphidius colemani is a cosmopolitan species and is a broadly oligophagous parasitoid on aphids of the genera Aphis, Brachycaudus, Myzus and Ropalosiphum (Starý et al. 2014). It has been recorded as a primary parasitoid of some aphid species attacking V. faba in the Middle East. Examples include: Acyrthosiphon pisum in Yemen (Starý & Erdelen 1982); Aphis craccivora in Iran (Rakhshani et al. 2008). In Egypt, Aphidius colemani was recorded by Ali (2014) and Gamal et al. (2022) as one of the potential primary parasitoids of A. craccivora affecting faba bean. It was also recorded in Egypt as a natural enemy parasitizing several aphid species associated with other economic crops such as cereal aphids (Ghanim & Adly 1983; Abdel Rahman et al. 2000; El-Heneidy & Abdel-Samad 2001; El-Heneidy et al. 2001–2004; Sobhy et al. 2004; El-Fatih 2006; Slman 2006; Gadallah et al. 2017), cucumber aphid (Aphis gossypii) (Eid et al. 2018); peach leaf aphid (Hyalopterus pruni) (Goeff)) (Ibrahim & Amal 1993); and on aphids affecting pear and mango leaves (Aphis gossypii) (El-Gantiry et al. 2009).

Diagnosis. Body predominantly brown to dark brown, with three basal antennomeres, propodeum, petiole, legs yellowish; metasoma yellowish brown; antenna with 11 antennomeres; vein 1 RS of fore wing short, never reaching wing apex, veins RS +M and M+m-cu absent; pterostigma 2.3× as long as wide, distinctly longer than vein R, 1.35× as long as vein R1; petiole with distinctly separated primary and secondary tubercles, distance between them longer than distance between spiracles; hypopygium with two almost straight prongs that are slightly curved at apex; ovipositor sheath downcurved.
Distribution in the MENA: Algeria, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Lebanon, Morocco, Tunisia, Turkey, United Arab Emirates.
Comments: Binodoxys angelicae is distributed in the Palaearctic and Oriental regions (Yu et al. 2016; Rakhshani et al. 2019), occurs in almost all the North African and Middle Eastern countries. It has been recorded in association with V. faba in the following countries: in Iran recorded as a primary parasitoid of Aphis craccivora (Rakhshani et al. 2005; Mossadegh et al. 2011; Nazari et al. 2012; Barahoei et al. 2013), as well as Turkey (Aşlan et al. 2004); and of Aphis fabae in Algeria (Starý et al. 1971), Iran (Talebi et al. 2009; Mossadegh et al. 2011; Barahoei et al. 2012; Modarres Awal 2012; Nazari et al. 2012; Taheri & Rakhshani 2013), Iraq (Al-Azawi 1970), as well as Lebanon (Tremblay et al. 1985). On the other hand, it was recorded as being a parasitoid of A. fabae in Iraq, Lebanon and Turkey by Starý (1976) without host plant data.
In Egypt, it has been recorded as a parasitoid of A. craccivora attacking faba beans in Mansoura Governorate (Ragab 1996, as Trioxys angelicae). It was also recorded parasitizing the grain aphid (Sitobium avenae (F.)) attacking wheat, Triticum aestivum Linnaeus (Gadallah et al. 2017).
