    Pimpla marginella is a species of ichneumon wasp in the family Ichneumonidae, first described by Brulle in 1846. As a member of the genus Pimpla, it is presumed to be a parasitoid wasp, though specific biological details for this species remain poorly documented in available sources. The species has been recorded in observation databases, indicating it is encountered in the field, but published literature focusing specifically on P. marginella is scarce.

  • Pimpla maura

    Pimpla maura is a species of ichneumon wasp in the family Ichneumonidae, first described by Cresson in 1870. It belongs to the genus Pimpla, a group of parasitoid wasps known for attacking caterpillars. Like other members of its genus, this species likely functions as a generalist parasitoid of lepidopteran larvae. The species has been documented in iNaturalist with 28 observations, though detailed biological studies appear limited in the accessible literature.
