Abstract

Two new genera and seven new species of Madygellinae (Xyelidae) from the Middle-Upper Triassic of Kyrgyzstan (Madygen Formation, Dzhailoucho locality): Madygella levivenosa sp. nov., M. kurochkini sp. nov., M. aristovi sp. nov., M. bashkuevi sp. nov., S. ryzhkovae gen. et sp. nov., S. shmakovi sp. nov., Chubakka madygensis gen. et sp. nov. Improved diagnoses of the subfamily Madygellinae and genus Madygella and improved redescription of the species Madygella analoga Rasnitsyn, 1969 are given. The taxonomic position of madygellines within Hymenoptera and their relationships with Sepulcidae (Cephoidea) are discussed.
