Curtis British Entomology Plate 423
Hymenoptera: Foenus assectator = Gasteruption assectator (Short-tailed Foenus) [Plant: Dactylorhiza (= Dactylorchis) maculata? (Orchis latifolia, Marsh Orchis). Summerhayes (1951) accepted Orchis latifolia - the ?Early Marsh Orchid? - as a common British species, and provided a colour photo closely comparable with Curtis?s beautiful engraving; but neither the binomial nor the English name are traceable in either Clapham, Tutin and Warburg (1962) or Stace (1997)! ?Orchis latifolia? has evidently been ?lost? among the dactylorchids, where hybridization has contributed to a taxonomic and nomenclatural mess. ]
