ABSTRACT. Karyotypes of four species of the genus Telenomus Haliday, 1833, namely, T. acrobates Giard, 1895, T. angustatus (Thomson, 1861), T. heydeni Mayr, 1879 and T. turesis Walker, 1836 were studied for the first time using chromosome morphometrics. Although all examined members of the genus appeared to have n = 10, substantial differences between karyotypes of certain species were revealed.
KEY WORDS. Telenominae, karyotype, chromosome morphometrics.
