Dicaelotus gelechiae
Dicaelotus gelechiae is a species of ichneumon wasp in the family Ichneumonidae, first described by Ashmead in 1890. The specific epithet "gelechiae" suggests a historical association with gelechiid moths (family Gelechiidae), a common host group for ichneumonid parasitoids. The genus Dicaelotus is part of the diverse Ichneumonidae family, one of the largest families of wasps with predominantly parasitoid lifestyles. This species is represented by minimal occurrence data in public repositories.
