Poemenia
Poemenia is a genus of ichneumonid wasps in the subfamily Poemeniinae. The genus comprises ectoparasitoids that attack small xylophilous bees (Apoidea) nesting in tunnels or cavities. Larval morphology indicates an ectoparasitoid lifestyle, with the mature larva of Poemenia albipes being the first described for the genus.
