Pimpla aequalis

Pimpla aequalis is a species of ichneumon wasp in the family Ichneumonidae, first described by Provancher in 1880. The species is currently accepted under this name, though some related Pimpla species have undergone taxonomic revision (e.g., Pimpla sanguinipes now often placed in Coccygomimus). As a member of the Pimplinae, this species is likely an ectoparasitoid of lepidopteran larvae, though specific host records for P. aequalis itself remain poorly documented. The genus Pimpla is widespread in North America.
