In the same paper of reference, as in Figs. IV,3; V,1; V,2. For Breviscelio crenatus see Fig. 2b in Caleca V., 1992 - Description of Breviscelio arabicus sp. nov. from Algeria, and of the male of B. crenatus Sundholm (Hym. Scelionidae). Frustula entomol. (1990) n. s. XIII (XXVI): 139-143.The odontoid process is present in other two Afrotropical species included in our paper close to submission "Revision of Afrotropical Dyscritobaeus Perkins, 1910 (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae)", with other good pictures, but not published.
