 Holotype   
 KENYA • ♀ of Ceraphron oriphilus Kieffer, 1913, synonymized with Aphanogmus fumipennis Thomson, 1858; “Maü escarpment, á Molo, station de l’Uganda railway, située prés du sommet de l’escarpement, dans la forêt, mais sur le versant oriental, altiitude de 2.420 m., 2 décembre 1911, st. no 19” (Kieffer 1913b: 12); MNHN EY22432 to EY22434, EY25361.   Distribution  
Afrotropical, nearctic, neotropical, and palearctic.  Comments  
 There is one female specimen stored in ethanol that Kieffer originally described as the type of Ceraphron oriphilus (1913b), but Dessart synonymized this species with Aphanogmus fumipennis Thomson, 1858 (1966a). There are no locality labels with the specimen, though there is a determination label from Kieffer indicating “ Type 19”. Dessart dissected the specimen and made three slide preparations (prép. no. 6505/182) of the left posterior leg (MNHN EY22432), both fore wings and one hind wing (MNHN EY22433), and one antenna (MNHN EY22434). The rest of the specimen is in ethanol (vial MNHN EY25361).
