Resumo
The venom apparatus morphology of Braconidae can be useful in systematic and phylogenetical studies. This work shows a morphological analysis of the venom apparatus of the following cyclostome Braconidae subfamilies: Alysiinae, Aphidiinae, Braconinae, Doryctinae, Opiinae and Rogadtnae. The characters studied are muscle, form and constrictions of the reservoir, and also number, form and branching of the glands.
