Abstract: Of the 88 Bracon Fabricius, 1804 species described by Szépligeti between 1896 and 1904 from the western Palaearctic Region (mainly from the historical Hungary) 16 species belong to the subgenus Lucobracon Fahringer, 1927. Five species remained valid and 11 species names proved to be junior synonyms of five others. The 5 valid species are redescribed. Holotype, lectotype and paralectotype specimens are designated when it was necessary. The following four new synonyms are established: Bracon erraticus Wesmael, 1838 = Bracon aestivalis Szépligeti, 1901, syn. n.; Bracon sphaerocephalus Szépligeti, 1901 = Bracon globiceps Szépligeti, 1901, syn. n.; Bracon mirus Szépligeti, 1901 = Bracon miroides Tobias, 1957 syn. n. = Bracon xyletini Hedqvist, 1973 syn. n. With 108 figures.
