EOBRACONUS, A SUBSTITUTE NAME FOR EOBRACON RASNITSYN (HYMENOPTERA, BRACONIDAE)
BY A. P. RASNITSYN
Palaeontological Institute, Academy of Sciences Profsoyuznaya, 1 13, Moscow 1 17321, USSR A few years ago 1 erected Eohracon as a generic name for a fossil braconid wasp (Rasnitsyn, 1983). This generic name, however, was previously used by Cockerel1 (1920) for another fossil braconid wasp. Since Eobracon Rasnitsyn is, therefore, a junior homonym of Eohracon Cockerell, I herein propose Eobraconus Rasnitsyn, new name, to replace Eohracon Rasnitsyn, 1983, The only species affected becomes Eobramnus inupinatus (Rasnitsyn), new combi- nation.
1 am grateful to Professor Frank M. Carpenter for drawing my attention to this homonymy.
