Ichneumonoid
Guides
Austrozele
Austrozele is a genus of parasitoid wasps in the family Braconidae, first described by Roman in 1910. The genus belongs to the ichneumonoid lineage of Hymenoptera, a group characterized by their larval development as parasitoids of other insects. As a braconid genus, Austrozele species are presumed to be koinobiont parasitoids, though specific biological details remain poorly documented. The genus has been recorded from Southeast Asia based on specimen data.
Boreogalba gladifer
Boreogalba gladifer is a species of parasitoid wasp in the family Braconidae, described by Mackauer in 1962. The genus Boreogalba is a small group within the ichneumonoid wasps, and this species is known from North America. Braconid wasps in this genus are presumed to be parasitoids of other insects, though specific host records for B. gladifer are not well documented.
Compsobraconoides
Compsobraconoides is a genus of braconid wasps described by Quicke in 1989. The genus belongs to the family Braconidae, a large group of parasitoid wasps that primarily develop in or on other insects. As a recently described genus, published information on its biology and species composition remains limited. The genus was erected based on morphological characters that distinguish it from related genera, particularly Compsobracon.
Earinus limitaris
Earinus limitaris is a species of parasitoid wasp in the family Braconidae, first described by Thomas Say in 1835. It belongs to the diverse ichneumonoid lineage of wasps, which are characterized by their parasitoid lifestyle. The species is documented from North America, though detailed biological studies remain limited. As a member of Braconidae, it likely functions as a koinobiont parasitoid, though this has not been explicitly confirmed for this species.
Polystenidea
Polystenidea is a genus of parasitoid wasps in the family Braconidae, first described by Viereck in 1911. Members of this genus are part of the diverse ichneumonoid wasp fauna, which are predominantly parasitoids of other insects. The genus is poorly documented in public sources, with minimal species-level information available.
Rhaconotus
Rhaconotus is a genus of parasitoid wasps in the family Braconidae, subfamily Doryctinae. Taxonomic revisions have recognized species groups within the genus, notably the signipennis-group and testaceiceps-group in the Oriental region. Recent work in Vietnam described eight new species within these groups, bringing the total treated to fourteen species for that region. The genus belongs to the ichneumonoid wasps, a diverse lineage of parasitoids.
Wroughtonia frigida
Wroughtonia frigida is a species of parasitoid wasp in the family Braconidae, first described by Cresson in 1873. The genus Wroughtonia belongs to the ichneumonoid wasp superfamily, a diverse group of parasitoids that attack other insects. Very little is known about the specific biology of this species. The species name 'frigida' suggests an association with cold environments, though this has not been explicitly documented.
