The list of Moroccan Chalcididae shown below is arranged by subfamilies, tribes, genera and species in alphabetical order. Under distribution in Morocco we include localities and dates of capture (Morocco’ indicates that a more precise locality is unavailable). The specimens were collected at three locations within the forest of Maâmora, Morocco (fig. 1): (1) Taïcha, Station 1: located near the forestry post Taïcha in the western Maâmora, canton A, commune Sidi Taïbi, 34° 13' 29.5" N, 6° 39' 04.8"W, 36 m. (2) Al Maha, Station 2: located in a private reserve in South Eastern Maâmora, canton D, commune Aïn Johra, 34° 06' 34.2" N, 6° 19' 04.0" W, 175 m. And (3) Aïn Assou, Station 3: located near the forestry post Aïn Assou in the northern Maâmora, canton D, commune Kceïbia, 34° 12' 07.9" N, 6° 15' 10.8" W, 84 m. The climate of the Maâmora forest is in general thermo-Mediterranean, sub-humid at the first station and semi-arid at the other two stations (Métro and Sauvage, 1955). Geographical positions are given using coordinates in Merchich's geographic reference system. All samples were collected by K. Kissayi (first author), using one Malaise trap per station once a week over three periods: 26 April to 8 October 2012, 24 May to 23 September 2013 and 27 November 2013 to 14 June 2014. After sorting, specimens were preserved in 70% alcohol prior to identification. Identifications were carried out by G. Delvare (CIRAD) and K. Kissayi using keys in Habu (1960, 1962), Bouček (1951, 1956, 1988), Bouček and Sedivy (1954), Ferrière and Kerrich (1958), Bouček and Narendran (1981), Narendran (1984, 1986, 1989), Delvare (1988, 1992, 1993), Bouček and Delvare (1992), Bouček and Halstead (1997), Narendran and van Achterberg (2016) and Delvare (2017).
