Ophionellus texanus
Ophionellus texanus is a species of ichneumon wasp in the family Ichneumonidae, first described by Cresson in 1872. It belongs to a genus of parasitoid wasps whose biology remains poorly documented. The species epithet "texanus" indicates a type locality or association with Texas. Like other ichneumonids, it is presumed to be a parasitoid of other insects, though specific host relationships have not been established for this species.
