Diospilus
Diospilus is a genus of parasitoid wasps in the family Braconidae, subfamily Brachistinae. The genus has cosmopolitan distribution. At least one species, D. capito, is a parasitoid of pollen beetles (Meligethes spp.) in agricultural systems, particularly in rape and mustard crops. Species within this genus are small braconid wasps, though detailed morphological descriptions for the genus as a whole are limited.
