Closterocerus cinctipennis
Closterocerus cinctipennis is a species of chalcid wasp in the family Eulophidae, first described by Ashmead in 1888. The species is known from scattered records across the eastern and central United States, with documented occurrences in California, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Florida, Illinois, and New York. As a member of the genus Closterocerus, it is presumed to be a parasitoid, though specific host associations for this species remain undocumented. The specific epithet 'cinctipennis' refers to the banded or girdled appearance of the wings.
