Glyphomerus
Glyphomerus is a genus of chalcidoid wasps in the family Torymidae, subfamily Glyphomerinae. Species are parasitoids of gall-forming insects, particularly cynipid wasps. At least one species, G. stigma, exhibits entomophytophagy, consuming gall tissue after feeding on host larvae. The genus is distributed across the Palearctic and Nearctic regions, with documented associations with rose gall wasps in the genus Diplolepis.
