Ctenichneumon columbianus
Ctenichneumon columbianus is a species of ichneumon wasp in the family Ichneumonidae, described by Heinrich in 1961. The genus Ctenichneumon belongs to the subfamily Ichneumoninae, a diverse group of parasitoid wasps. Species in this genus are characterized by distinctive comb-like structures on the hind tibiae. Like other ichneumonids, C. columbianus is presumed to be a parasitoid of other insects, though specific host records for this species are not well documented.
