Abstract
This parasitic wasp is added to the Irish list based on specimens reared from the Red-tipped Clearwing moth Synathedon formicaeformis collected at Glengarriff, Co. Cork by E.S.A. Baynes in 1953. The specimens had been determined initially as Exeristes (=Mesocentrus) roborator. The paper reviews the status of the two parasites and the host.
